Financial planning isn’t built for most of us.

We didn’t set out to build just another finance company. After fifteen years guiding global teams through billion-euro bets and streamlined operations, we saw exactly what big organizations enjoy: experts, processes, and deep financial intelligence.

Then we stepped into the shoes of small and mid-sized business owners, confronting critical decisions armed only with duct-taped spreadsheets, no CFO on speed dial, and zero margin for error.

That’s when we realized:
Financial planning isn’t built for most of us.

So we flipped the script. We’re on a mission to make planning, forecasting, and scenario-building accessible, intuitive, and powerful, no excel-skills required. We’re not dumbing it down either; we’re designing for real life, where finance leaders juggle multiple roles and strategy happens between meetings, not in month-long cycles.

Our guiding principles:

Access, not fragmentation. Unlocking data siloes for companies small and large.
Simplicity with teeth. We cut friction, not functionality.
Finance that speaks human. Live, actionable data you can talk to like a person.
Continuous innovation. Finance leveraging the full spectrum of AI.
Trust, baked in. Transparent intelligence you can count on.

We exist for (fractional) heads of finance running lean, for owners making mission-critical decisions, and for seasoned professionals who demand the very best, every day. With the right product, we believe we can transform finance from a cost center into a strategic powerhouse.

That’s the future we’re building. So every business can plan like a fortune 500 company, no matter its size.
