The work after the check arrives
At the end of dinner, one person pays and everyone else asks what they owe. Splitting tax and tip is one job. Sending each friend a request is another. [2][4]
Versine gives an AI assistant a way to carry that job through. A person can share the receipt, ask for a split and have the assistant prepare the payment requests. [2][3]
A dinner split, from receipt to request
Say a group shared appetizers, ordered separate mains and left a single tip. The person who paid can give the assistant the receipt and explain how the group wants to split it. [2][4]
The assistant can work out each share and use Versine to request the amounts from the right people. [2][4]
Versine also supports sending money to someone who has no Versine account. The recipient gets a claim link and can have the payment sent to their bank account. [1][2]
The person paying sets the rules
Users can decide which assistants have access, who they can pay and how much they can send. [1][3]
Versine checks a payment against those permissions. A payment requires the user’s approval or a standing rule the user has already authorized. [1][3]
A one-off payment prepared through the Claude connector, for example, can be reviewed and approved with a passkey in the Versine app. A recurring split can run under a rule the user set up in advance. [1][3]
A payment layer for assistants
Harshith Latchupatula, Vishnudev Poil and Param Thakkar founded Versine in 2026 and joined Y Combinator’s Fall 2026 batch. Harshith previously worked on Stripe Connect. Vishnudev and Param bring experience in software systems and search. [2]
Versine is building a developer API and a sandbox for teams adding payments to their own assistants. The company offers waitlists for individuals and developers. [1]

The bigger picture
Splitting a bill is one of those jobs where the arithmetic is only the beginning. Versine wants the person holding the receipt to hand off the follow-up in the same conversation. [2][4]
