We are excited to announce that FinTech Collective has selected Standard Metrics. FinTech Collective is a New York-based venture capital firm that partners with founders reshaping markets, backing companies across the US, Europe, and Latin America that are changing how money moves. Notable investments include NYDIG, Vestwell, Flutterwave, and Plaid.

FinTech Collective came to Standard Metrics looking to bring its portfolio reporting into one system and establish a trusted data foundation for its existing AI workflows. As part of a build-versus-buy evaluation, the firm considered how much of this infrastructure it could develop internally with LLMs. It chose Standard Metrics to manage the underlying work of collecting, normalizing, validating, and maintaining an auditable history of portfolio data.

“AI is only as good as the data underneath it. Every number we report to LPs has to trace back to a data point sourced from a portfolio company, and Standard Metrics gives us that chain of custody. We’d rather spend quarter-close on analysis than on data entry,” said Ben Sanborn, Head of Finance at FinTech Collective.

With Standard Metrics, FinTech Collective will centralize portfolio reporting, automate data requests, and bring information from emails, board decks, financial statements, and investment records into one consistent, auditable data set for portfolio reviews, LP reporting, valuation work, and audit requests. FinTech Collective’s AI tools will work from that validated foundation instead of repeatedly interpreting raw portfolio documents.

“It’s the best feeling as a founder when someone who has used Standard Metrics in a previous role brings the platform to a new firm,” said John Melas-Kyriazi, co-founder and CEO of Standard Metrics. “Ben has seen how our product and team work, and we’re grateful for the chance to partner with him again. We’re excited to help FinTech Collective establish a trusted portfolio data foundation for reporting, analysis, and its broader AI workflows.”
