๐Ÿงฑ In 2017, we started the Request Foundation(http://request.network/) to work on developing the Request Network protocol that allows anyone to create, store, and access invoices and receipts on a universal, decentralized ledger.

๐Ÿงช To further bring that vision to life, we also formed Request Labs to build the first app on top of our own protocol.

๐Ÿš€ As the Request Invoicing app grows in terms of adoption and upcoming features beyond invoicing, it was time for the product to have its own, dedicated website: https://www.request.finance/
