According to its Crunchbase profile, "Dave is a US-only app that predicts upcoming expenses and alerts users if their balance is at risk."

The three-year-old startup has raised four previous funding rounds, including a $10 million debt financing round in 2018.

The round brings total funding raised by Los Angeles companies in artificial intelligence over the past 90 days to $118 million, an increase of $116 million from the previous three-month period.
