COUP

Coupa Software Inc

A maker of cloud software that helps companies track and control how they spend money, Coupa's platform automates everything from purchasing and invoicing to expense reports and payments. Founded in 2006 by two former Oracle employees, the company got its name from the Coupa Cafe in Palo Alto, where the founders met to sketch out their idea. The company was taken private in 2023 when private-equity firm Thoma Bravo bought it.
