Overview

Finance teams are under constant pressure to deliver faster insights, support business decisions, and stay on top of expenses—but manual workflows keep getting in the way. What if AI could handle the time-consuming tasks, so finance teams could focus on what truly matters? From automating budget owner workflows (so teams don’t get derailed by constant ad-hoc requests) to predicting expenses with AI (so finance can focus on revenue strategy while staying on track with costs), automation is shifting finance from reactive to proactive.

Watch this on-demand discussion with finance veterans Liz Brittain and Kelly Battles, former finance chiefs at companies like Zendesk, Quora, Clari, and more, who currently serve on the boards of multiple companies. With their experience spanning high-growth startups and established enterprises, they share firsthand insights on how AI is reshaping finance operations and where automation can deliver the biggest impact.

They’re joined by Sandeep, co-founder of Precanto, The Always-On FP&A Analyst, who highlights real-world examples of AI-powered automation in action, helping finance teams move beyond manual reporting, slow variance analysis, and reactive forecasting.

What You’ll Learn:

  • The top finance processes AI is automating today—from budget owner workflows to expense predictions.
  • How AI helps finance leaders shift focus from data wrangling to strategic decision-making.
  • Enterprise vs. SMB automation strategies—how different finance teams are applying AI.
  • What automation means for finance teams and the future of FP&A.
