What Cenit does

Cenit (legal name Cenit Technologies Chile SpA) is a Chilean fintech founded in 2024 by Andrés Liberman (CEO) and Ronny González (CPO), both former Betterfly operators. The company provides an AI-powered mobile tax-management platform targeting Chilean and Mexican small and medium enterprises (PyMEs) and independent professionals who issue boletas de honorarios. Its core product is a mobile application (iOS and Android) that connects via user-supplied RUT and tax-authority credentials directly to Chile's Servicio de Impuestos Internos (SII) and Mexico's Servicio de Administración Tributaria (SAT), ingesting electronic invoices, receipts, and tax documents in real time without manual entry. The platform combines (i) an AI chatbot that answers tax and business questions in natural Spanish grounded in each user's live tax data, (ii) daily tax-liability projections for IVA, PPM, and withholding obligations, (iii) one-click monthly F29 declaration and in-app payment, (iv) automated annual F22 income tax filing, (v) computer-vision receipt scanning for non-invoiced expenses, and (vi) POS sales-summary integration with Mercado Pago, Transbank, Getnet, TUU, Redelcom, and Shopify.

The business model is a tiered subscription SaaS offering monthly plans ranging from CLP $16,990 (Base) to CLP $49,990 (Pro), annual plans at CLP $169,900–$249,900 with roughly 50%+ effective discounts, a standalone F22 declaration at CLP $49,990, and pay-as-you-go add-on RUTs at CLP $39,990. A 15-day free trial with no credit card required drives product-led acquisition through the iOS and Android app stores. Distribution blends self-serve PLG with a distributor/referral channel (accountants and tax advisors earning up to 15% recurring commission) and a Santander co-marketing partnership offering a 10% discount to Santander Empresas cardholders. The company operates with a 9-person team across Chile and Mexico and reports 6,000+ trusting PyMEs on its homepage and 1,500 registered companies per founder interviews. In November 2025, Cenit closed a US$1.8M seed round led by Mexican AI-focused fund Hi Ventures to fund LatAm expansion and was included in Hi Ventures' AI 100 Early Stage Map 2025.

Product overview

Direct peers

• Siigo: Latin American cloud accounting and business management platform for SMEs and accountants, with presence in Colombia, Mexico, Brazil and other markets. Offers invoicing, accounting, payroll and tax filings — overlapping with Cenit's full SME tax workflow but at a broader, less mobile-native, less AI-specialized level.
• Conta Azul: Brazilian cloud-based financial management SaaS for SMEs, offering invoicing, expense tracking, bank reconciliation and tax support. Same target segment (SME business owner managing their own books) and same horizontal SaaS motion as Cenit, but focused on the Brazilian regulatory stack.
• Defontana: Chilean cloud ERP, accounting and payroll software vendor serving SMEs across LatAm. The closest direct domestic competitor in Chile, providing tax declaration, invoicing and accounting modules — the platform Cenit most directly displaces for Chilean PyMEs.
• Alegra: Colombian-headquartered cloud accounting and invoicing SaaS serving SMEs across multiple LatAm countries. Competes in the same SME accounting/financial-management category, with broader ERP functionality but a more traditional (desktop + web) interface and less of a tax-authority-first focus than Cenit.
• Tributi: Mexico-based fintech app automating tax filings (ISR, IVA) for individuals and SMEs via direct SAT integration. Mirrors Cenit's product model — AI-assisted, mobile-first, credentialed access to the tax authority — but for the Mexican market, making it the most direct comparable and a head-to-head competitor in Cenit's Mexico launch.

Broad incumbents

• Xero: Global cloud accounting platform widely used by SMEs and accountants. While not LatAm-native, it represents the global benchmark for SME accounting UX and is a credible competitor if it deepens its Chile/Mexico localization and AI features.
• Balance (formerly Tango Software): Chilean/LatAm ERP and accounting suite offering tax, invoicing, payroll and POS modules for SMEs. Long-established desktop-and-cloud incumbent whose installed base of accountants and small businesses is a direct channel Cenit is trying to disrupt.
• Nubox: Chilean cloud payroll, accounting and tax compliance platform serving SMEs and accounting firms. Broader HR/payroll-led portfolio than Cenit but overlapping heavily on Chilean tax filing (F29, F22), making it the most established incumbent Cenit must displace for the Chilean accountant channel.
• QuickBooks: Global small-business accounting SaaS from Intuit, with localized versions across LatAm. Provides invoicing, expense tracking, reporting and tax-prep features for SMEs — a broad incumbent that could add deeper SII/SAT integration to enter Cenit's niche.
• Buk: Chilean cloud HR, payroll and people-management platform with growing SME traction. While HR-led rather than tax-led, it increasingly bundles tax and compliance features, putting it adjacent to Cenit in the Chilean SME software stack and competing for the same small-business wallet.
