AI Agents for CFO and Finance teams

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build AI agents that automate controllership and accounting procedures. Our product accelerates the time to close books and improves accuracy by delivering ERP-ready journals and financial reports in under five minutes. It includes audit trails and commentary to help CFOs and finance teams verify and trust the outputs.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We don't have a set company location. After YC, we would base the company wherever most effective to build and sell the product.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Our team is remote and distributed. We are location agnostic because our customers are finance teams across industries and regions, so focusing on product and customer needs is more important than geography.
