✓ 11 years US treasury operations ✓ Audit-grade outputs only ✓ 7-day refund

The problem with "use AI more"

Every CFO is being told the same thing: use AI more. Every controller has tried, then closed the tab.

The block isn't capability. AI can absolutely draft a journal entry, walk through a bank rec, estimate an accrual.

The block is audit defense. AI confidently makes up account numbers, period cutoffs, and reconciling items. Once a controller sees that happen once, they can't trust the output for anything that touches the close.

What this audit fixes
  • Identifies the 3-5 highest-leverage AI use cases for YOUR close cycle
  • Maps each use case to a specific Skill (procedural instruction set)
  • Each Skill produces audit-grade output your team can review and ship
  • Implementation playbook — install, customize, train your team

What you get

Audit and implementation playbook for one finance team. Delivered as a written report + 90-minute Zoom walkthrough + 30 days of email follow-up.

01

Workflow inventory

A documented map of every recurring close-cycle workflow your team runs — what's done weekly vs monthly vs quarterly, who owns each, and how many hours each consumes.

02

AI suitability scoring

Each workflow scored on how well it fits AI augmentation — repetition, structured inputs, materiality of errors, audit-trail requirements. Red/yellow/green categorization so you know where NOT to start too.

03

Top 3-5 Skill recommendations

The specific AI Skills (procedural instruction sets) you should deploy first, with expected hour savings per close cycle. Often pulled from the Treasury Skill Pack, sometimes custom-scoped to your workflow.

04

Customization plan

For each Skill: the exact COA references, materiality thresholds, fiscal calendar, and approval matrix that need to be customized before deployment. Saves the 60-90 minutes of trial-and-error per Skill.

05

Audit-defense framework

A 1-page protocol your team uses to document AI-assisted work — how to capture the prompt, the input, the output, and the human review. Survives external audit walkthroughs.

06

30-day implementation support

Email follow-up for 30 days post-audit. Stuck on customization, output formatting, or buying decisions? Reply to me. Most questions answered within 24 hours.

How it works

1

Pre-call questionnaire (you, 20 minutes)

Short questionnaire about your team size, ERP, current close timeline, and the workflows that hurt the most. Your answers shape the focus of the audit call.

2

90-minute audit call (us, on Zoom)

Walk through your close cycle workflow by workflow. I ask the questions that surface the right details. We jointly score each for AI suitability. Recorded so you can revisit.

3

Written report (me, within 5 business days)

15-25 page PDF. Workflow inventory, suitability scoring, top 3-5 Skill recommendations with rationale, customization plan, audit-defense framework, prioritized 30/60/90 day implementation roadmap.

4

30-day email support (us)

Implementation questions, customization gotchas, output formatting issues. I reply within 24 hours during the support window.

Who this is for

You're a fit if

  • You close the books for a 25-500 employee company
  • You're the Controller, CFO, Senior Accountant, or finance ops lead
  • You burn weekend hours on month-end close and you're tired of it
  • Your leadership wants you to "use AI more" and you want to do it RIGHT
  • You report to people who care about audit defense, not "vibes"

You're NOT a fit if

  • You're at an enterprise running BlackLine, HighRadius, or Workiva already
  • You want a magic-box that does close for you (this is a power tool, not autopilot)
  • You don't have access to your bank data, GL, or AP system
  • You want tax provision or SEC filing support — different domain, different tooling
Background

Why I built this

I spent 11 years in US treasury operations at an investment management firm. Managed the operational systems handling billions in client assets. Built audit-grade documentation. Ran close cycles where "we wing it" wasn't an option.

When AI tools matured to the point where they could plausibly help with finance work, I tried them. They were either useless (couldn't handle real complexity) or dangerous (confidently wrong in ways that wouldn't survive audit review).

The fix isn't better AI. It's better instructions for the AI. The Treasury Skill Pack and this audit are how I help finance operators get the productivity gains without the audit-fail risks.

FAQ

How is this different from the Treasury Skill Pack on Gumroad?
The pack is a do-it-yourself product. You install it, customize it for your team, deploy it. About 60-90 min per Skill of customization work. Audit is a do-it-with-you service. I sit with your specific workflows, recommend the right Skills (some from the pack, some custom-scoped), build the customization plan, and answer questions as you implement. Audit + Implementation tier is do-it-for-you — I install and customize on your team's setup myself.
What ERPs / accounting systems do you support?
The Skills work on data exported from any system — QuickBooks, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Xero, Workday, SAP B1, Oracle Cloud. They process CSVs and Excel files. No API integration required, which means no IT involvement and no security review. If your ERP can export data, the Skills can process it.
Do my team and I need ChatGPT Plus or Claude Pro?
For full Skills functionality you'll want Claude Team or Claude Code. The Audit covers the licensing landscape and tells you what's worth paying for vs not. Some workflows can run on free tiers with copy-paste — not as smooth, but functional.
What about data security? Are you sending our financial data anywhere?
The audit walkthrough is conducted with whatever data sanitization you're comfortable with — most clients use anonymized samples or share screen rather than send files. The Skills themselves run in your team's chosen environment (Claude.ai with Team plan privacy controls, or Claude Code on your team's machines). No data flows to me unless you choose to share it.
What if the audit doesn't surface anything we can use?
That's never happened — every finance team has at least 3-5 high-leverage workflows that fit AI augmentation. But if you're the exception, the 7-day money-back guarantee covers you. Email me, get refunded.
I'm a solo finance person at a small company. Will this work for me?
Yes — solo finance people are the highest-ROI audience for this work because the time savings hit one person directly. Solo finance roles also benefit most from the audit-defense framework because there's no second set of eyes to catch mistakes naturally.
How quickly can we book?
Calendar usually has slots within 5-7 business days. Pre-call questionnaire goes out as soon as you book. The 90-minute audit call happens at our scheduled time. The written report follows within 5 business days. Total elapsed time from booking to report: 7-12 business days.
