The San Diego company wraps referral links, project updates, CRM data and cash rewards into one contractor-focused system. The clever part is the software; the hard part is getting humans to use it.
Pointwise is a New York fintech that tells you which credit cards to get and when, so you stop leaving rewards on the table. Founded by Ken Book and Ben Litvin and backed by Y Combinator (W23), the free app connects to a user's existing cards, analyzes their real spending, and runs it against a live database of nearly 4,000 credit cards to build a personalized, math-driven plan for maximizing cash back, points, and sign-up bonuses over time.
