What Glide does

Glide is a crypto payment infrastructure company that enables decentralized applications to accept wallet funding from any blockchain, wallet, centralized exchange, or payment card through a single unified deposit flow. Operating as Tenlab Technologies, Inc. and founded in 2023, the company is headquartered in the US with operational presence in New York and California, and is backed by Y Combinator. Its core technology abstracts away the need for bridges, swaps, or repeated KYC by routing deposits across 100+ tokens and 30+ blockchain networks, with direct integrations into Coinbase, Binance, Visa, and Mastercard, and supports gasless deposits plus on-chain transaction verification for trust.

The product surface consists of four components: Crypto Deposits (the core wallet-funding product), Crypto Payments (extending to multi-token payment acceptance), a pre-built Deposit Widget for same-day integration, and a Headless SDK for custom implementations. Glide primarily targets dapp developers in prediction markets, trading platforms, gaming (GameFi), payments, and general dapps, with stand.trade (a prediction markets startup) disclosed as the only named customer.

The business model is a freemium SaaS-style subscription: a standard plan at $99/month with unlimited transaction volume and users, plus a 15-day free trial, alongside a custom-priced Enterprise tier for high-volume deployments with dedicated support. Go-to-market is product-led through a self-serve signup portal, live demo, and developer documentation, supplemented by an enterprise sales-assisted motion for larger contracts. Total disclosed funding is $500,000 from Y Combinator (September 2023), and the company operates with 1-10 employees.
