Town
Town is a San Francisco AI startup building a personal AI assistant - your 'Townie' - that plugs into the tools you already use (email, calendar, Slack, docs, WhatsApp, desktop and web), learns how you work, and proactively does the work for you. Founded in late 2024 by former Plaid CTO Jean-Denis Greze and ex-Google applied-AI director Tony Vincent, Town launched in 2025 as an AI-driven tax-and-compliance service for small businesses, then widened into a general-purpose assistant. It exited beta in June 2026 alongside a $55M Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz.
Jean-Denis Greze
Jean-Denis Greze is the Co-Founder and CEO of Town, an AI-powered tax platform for small businesses that raised an $18M seed round led by First Round Capital in March 2025. Previously, he served as CTO of Plaid, where he scaled the engineering team from 20 to 350 people, and before that as Director of Engineering at Dropbox. A Columbia CS grad and Harvard Law JD, he brings an unusually cross-disciplinary approach to building technology companies at the intersection of finance, law, and software.
