Openforce Built the Back Office for the 1099 Economy - Now It Has to Make the Mess Feel Invisible
The Scottsdale company moves $5 billion a year through the unglamorous machinery behind independent work. Its bet: the winner in contractor software is the one that turns paperwork, insurance and payments into one clean trail of proof.

Diego Asenjo is the CEO and co-founder of Mesh, an Austin-based B2B identity startup that verifies the legitimacy, licensing, insurance, and compliance of small businesses and sole proprietors in real time. A former Amazon product leader who built Business Prime into a multi-billion-dollar program, Diego left to fix a problem he 'could not unsee': the broken data infrastructure that quietly penalizes new, small, and micro businesses. His mission is personal, rooted in watching his father's small auto-parts shop in Argentina lose access to fair credit and opportunity as commerce went digital. Mesh raised a $5.7M seed round led by Greycroft and reports 99%+ satisfaction from the businesses it verifies.
