The AI CFO is finally here. After 5 years working as CFOs for hundreds of companies, we saw the same problem. → Founders flying blind financially → Insights stuck with accountants → Hours lost in spreadsheets So we built @NumeAI. The world's first AI CFO that: - plugs into your accounting + bank - builds a personal CFO action plan - monitors everything 24/7 - messages you automatically in slack or email Setup takes 10 minutes. Try it now at: nume.ai

At a high level, Nume connects to the systems a company already uses, like banking and accounting tools, then helps turn that financial activity into useful reporting, insights, and workflows. The goal is to give founders and finance teams more visibility without forcing them to live in spreadsheets all day. Or having to pay a CFO to answer simple questions.

@4lexsvv Noice, how does it work?

Hey founders ! Looking to connect with people building in: 🍽️ SaaS 🚀 Tech 📲 Automation 🧠 AI tools 📱 Product Development 🔥 Web APP 💻 Devs Drop what you're working on 👇

@gabriel1 Everywhere for who? Asking for a friend.

You can absolutely use ChatGPT or Claude for finance. The same way you can use Wikipedia as a lawyer. You will get something useful. You just won’t know where the edge cases, assumptions, or hidden risks are. That’s the problem we are solving with Nume.

@t_blom And the majority of posts. Anyone can be AI. Could be me. Could be you.

The majority of replies on this platform now seem to come from AI 😞 We’re just speedrunning a future where it’s just AIs tweeting at each other.

@t_blom Some of the most valuable product understanding comes from sitting directly inside the onboarding process and hearing where customers get confused, excited, skeptical, or stuck. That is exactly how we approached things at Nume early on.

Biggest red flag I hear from early stage founders? “We’re working on self-serve onboarding” Your product currently requires you to talk to every new customer? That’s a good thing.

@asaio87 Just not a very good one.

This is so true: Not every idiot with Claude code in his hands can be a software developer.

@andrewxroas People dramatically underestimate how much work goes into building AI systems that are actually reliable, useful, and trusted in real workflows. Saying this as a founder who spent years building one.

Creative strategists and copywriters will be here for a LONG time Yes you can use Claude to make new ads for you but I was never able to produce a winning ad that way, not even one I'm almost always the one doing the heavy thinking and writing the ad with claude filling in some gaps Otherwise it produces complete trash

@JuliaEMcCoy Now with AI, everyone can work 996. Productivity? I think just more work.

Hot take: the 40-hour week was never sacred. It was an industrial-era compromise. A number invented for factory floors. We’ve been worshipping a 1920s artifact for a century. AI doesn’t reform the system. It dissolves the assumption underneath it — that human time and economic output must be welded together.

A lot of startup people assume every organization can adopt technology at startup speed. Then they enter a large enterprise and discover procurement, compliance, security reviews, internal politics, legacy systems, and ten different approval chains standing between a demo and reality.

People's perspective on AI is hugely shaped by their work experience. If you've only ever worked solo or in startups, you really can't understand the degree to which bureaucracy slows AI diffusion, the extent to which IT holds the reins on AI innovation.

@w_milczynska X is pretty fake as well.

linkedin used to be fake. now it's fake AND written by chatgpt lol

@KaiXCreator Without sales? Distribution? Would be interested in seeing the GTM.

Is it possible to vibe-code a legit $1M SaaS?

@buildinpublic Nume, AI CFO. nume.ai

What are you working on this week?

@FurtherAwayPL @levie Thank you.

@4lexsvv @levie Neat way to put it tbh

CEOs are uniquely prone to AI psychosis because they’re sufficiently distant from the last mile of work that still has to happen to generate most value with AI. So when they play with AI, they see the happy path results, often not considering the next 10 or 20 things that have to happen to get sustainable results from agents. “Look I made this awesome product prototype”. Yes but you didn’t have to review the code before it went into production and fix a bunch of issues. “Look I generated a contract”. Yes but you didn’t verify all the terms before it goes out to the counterparty and didn’t have to wire up all the past contracts to work with. The best thing you can do as a CEO is to use AI a *ton* to figure out the real implications of agents in the enterprise, and come out the other side with an appreciation for both the upside and the real work that goes into them.

Claude and ChatGPT are incredible at explaining finance. But that's not the same thing as doing finance. They can summarize concepts, rewrite reports, and make messy information sound clean. But when it comes to financial judgment, prioritization, and accuracy under real operating conditions, they break faster than people realize. Finance is a decision-making discipline.

@emollick Authenticity is the new moat.

As more people come to recognize the tells of AI, which mostly happens as you start to work with AI a lot, the scales are going to fall from their eyes and they are going to realize what some of us already see: how much of this site (and blog posts, articles, papers) are AI now.

I think a lot of the opportunity is in amplification. We built our AI CFO to allow finance teams to operate with far more speed, visibility, and leverage, not remove humans from the equation entirely. The companies that win will probably be the ones where humans and AI compound each other instead of competing with each other.

AI will increase jobs. It's not like there is a finite amount of work to do, and AI will do most of it. That's the wrong metaphor. The right metaphor is AI will make everybody 5x more productive. That means instead of doing x things in a month, you do 5x. You hire more.

@1Umairshaikh Hasn't happened yet. Never will.

The biggest lie in startups: “Once this launches, things will calm down.”

Finance is one of the worst possible domains for AI sycophancy. You don't want a model that tells founders what they want to hear. You want one that tells them the truth. Which is what we built with Nume.

@dramaricic Everywhere and anywhere.

Builders, how do you promote your product?
