Rydoo acquires Semine: a new chapter in AI-powered spend management
Today, I’m proud to share a major milestone in Rydoo’s story. One that moves us closer to our ambition of building the world’s most intelligent spend management solution. We have acquired Semine, a leading European innovator in accounts payable automation.
For over 10 years, Rydoo has always been about making finance processes easier for everyone. We’ve helped over a million users around the world take the pain out of expense management. But we knew that wasn’t the full picture. True spend transformation means connecting the dots between workflows that, until now, often lived in silos.
When I first met with Bjørn Røsten, Semine’s CEO, it was clear that, much like myself, he understood the pain points finance teams face today. As our conversations continued, I became even more convinced: this is the right team, the right technology, and the right time for us to take the next step in our journey.
Semine brings a shared mindset to the table: one rooted in automation, customer-centric design, and a belief that finance can be faster, smarter, and more strategic. By combining their powerful accounts payable technology with Rydoo’s expense management platform, we’re creating something truly special: a unified, intelligent solution to simplify, automate, and elevate corporate spend management.
Our mission remains clear: to empower finance teams to spend less time on administrative tasks and more on strategic, high-impact work.
