Comulate
San Francisco, California, United States
Comulate is a San Francisco AI software company serving insurance brokers and agencies. Its legal entity is Ardent Labs, Inc., doing business as Comulate. Founded in 2022 by Jordan Katz and Michael Mattheakis, it develops accounting automation and revenue intelligence for direct billing, statement reconciliation, carrier payables, cash application, commission recovery and related insurance operations. Its engineering publications describe self-learning retrieval-augmented generation for extracting invoice data and SQL-based context retrieval for AI agents. The founders previously worked in technology and pivoted into the manual workflows of insurance accounting. Jordan Katz leads the company as CEO, Michael Mattheakis is co-founder and CTO, and Natalie Sandman Krey joined as COO in 2025 after investing through Spark Capital. Other publicly named operators and technical contributors are recorded with source-qualified roles. On February 11, 2025 the company announced a USD20 million Series B co-led by BOND and Workday Ventures. Earlier backing is described separately from this financing: published cumulative funding and portfolio cards do not establish additional single-round cash. Crystal Venture Partners labels its relationship a pre-fund investment, while the issuer names Jonathan Crystal personally among prior investors.
