Gunderson Dettmer represented client ComplYant, a Los Angeles-based digital tax assistant for small business owners, in its $5.5 million Series Seed financing led by Craft Ventures with participation from Slauson & Co., Mucker Capital and Techstars. The new funding will enable Complyant to expand its services and grow its teams.

In the announcement of the transaction, founder and CEO of ComplYant Shiloh Johnson said, "During my time as a CPA, I saw firsthand how small business owners struggle with managing their tax deadlines. Running a small business is hard enough already, and on top of everything entrepreneurs have to manage, late fees and fines are the last things they need.”

The Gunderson deal team was led by Cody Peterson and included Jas Johnson, Layla Chung, Tim Greene, and Young Park.
