Our Story

From manual chaos
to intelligent clarity

CLOE was born from a shared belief that finance deserved better — a system built by people who've lived the pain, not just studied it.

The journey that sparked CLOE

Every line of code, every feature — shaped by real finance pain

Chapter 1

The Problem We Lived

After years inside global audit firms and high-growth finance teams, one truth became impossible to ignore — finance professionals were spending more time fixing spreadsheets than shaping strategy.

Month-end close was a marathon of manual reconciliations, version chaos, and sleepless nights. Every quarter felt like starting from scratch.

Endless manual adjustments

Error-prone reconciliations

Fragmented tools and disconnected teams

"We'd spend two weeks every quarter just consolidating entities, currencies, and eliminations — all manual, all error-prone."

March - August 2025
6 Months

Hundreds of trials. One insight.

Automation alone wasn't enough.
Finance needed a system that understood accounting logic.

Chapter 2

The Breakthrough

Between March and August 2025, we began experimenting with the idea of AI-driven finance agents — not to replace accountants, but to reimagine how finance could work.

Through hundreds of trials and prototypes, one insight stood out: automation alone wasn't enough. Finance needed a system that understood accounting logic — that could reason, explain, and adapt like a true digital controller.

Development Begins

With a deep foundation in accounting and a shared frustration for broken workflows, we started building CLOE — one line of logic, one process at a time.

We weren't chasing features; we were rebuilding trust in numbers. Our goal was simple yet ambitious: to create a finance engine that could close books the way accountants think — precise, explainable, and always audit-ready.

"Finance doesn't need more dashboards"

it needs clarity, control, and confidence.

Mission

Our North Star

To eliminate manual, spreadsheet-driven finance workflows and replace them with intelligent, automated, and audit-ready processes — so finance teams can focus on strategy, not spreadsheets.

"CLOE exists to turn weeks of work into minutes of insight."

Vision

Where We're Heading

To become the AI-native operating system for Finance — where every organization, from startups to enterprises, can close faster, stay compliant, and unlock real-time financial intelligence.

"A world where finance teams spend zero time on reconciliation — and all their time on decision-making."

Meet the Team

Operators. Builders. Obsessed.

Every product starts with a frustration. Ours began in late nights of month-end chaos — reconciling spreadsheets, chasing numbers, and wondering why finance, the backbone of every business, was still running on manual muscle.

That frustration turned into conviction. CLOE was born from a shared belief that finance deserved better — a system built by people who've lived the pain, not just studied it.
