About Us

CYTO is a Luanda-based fintech startup revolutionizing how businesses in Angola and similar emerging markets manage finance. As the country prepares for mandatory digital invoicing by 2026, CYTO provides the only finance automation platform tailored to Angola's tax and compliance environment. Backed by the UNDP Timbuktoo Fintech Accelerator, Station F in Paris, and the Angolan Central Bank, CYTO offers AI-powered tools that automate invoicing, payroll, and tax compliance — replacing manual, error-prone processes that dominate the region. Angolan businesses currently spend up to 40 hours monthly on routine finance tasks. CYTO reduces that to minutes, helping companies mitigate fraud risk, avoid regulatory fines, and focus on growth. The founding team brings international expertise: CEO Joachim Valot (ex-Rothschild), COO Tamara Lerner (ex-Google), and CFO Thiebault Husson (ex-Natixis) combine finance and tech experience to deliver locally-relevant, world-class solutions.
