Today's finance teams are being asked to move faster, improve visibility, tighten controls, and somehow do it all without adding headcount.
That’s why AP automation has become such a big focus going into 2026.
I'm hosting a webinar joined by Martin Bartosek, CPA, CMA, MBA, SSGB, founder of The Bartosek Group and an expert with deep experience in finance, analytics, and technology leadership, along with Evan Guilbault from @QuadientFinAuto, for a live discussion on what AP leaders are actually prioritizing right now, where teams are struggling, and what high-performing finance teams are doing differently.
We’ll also show a live demo of Quadient AP in action.
Can’t attend live? Register anyway and we’ll send the recording.

MrBeast reveals why he is creating his own Bank called MrBeast Financial
"Yeah, people saw the trademark we filed. It was literally there was a tweet with 30 million impressions and it started going crazy."
I get news NBC literally covered it. You can throw it up on the screen yesterday on national television. So people have been talking about "is MrBeast launching a bank?
Is MrBeast launching a bank?"
"Yes, um, I- uh we deal a lot with money in our videos and I actually have this fun story of when I was younger, there's this YouTuber called WoodysGamertag. He was a Call of Duty YouTuber, but, you know, when I was younger I loved Call of Duty, but this guy would also give life advice while talking over Call of Duty."
"And so I was watching him for Call of Duty, but he was like weirdly giving me life advice. And one time he did a video of his investment portfolio and he showed uh- 'cause he's older- showed how money he invested when he was younger turned into a couple million dollars and he showed like the power of compounding. And I remember when I was like 13, I was like "What?"
"He- he put like $10,000 but that turned into like $100,000 and and then he kept doing that and turned into millions of dollars."
"And it like blew my brain! I never, I mean, I'm sure obviously I would've learned about compound interest and investing later, but this guy who was playing Call of Duty and I wasn't even watching him to learn about finances ended up teaching me a lot about investing and kicked off a lot of my passion about just, you know, building business and things like that."
"And so I think it would be fun to start weaving in more, um, you know, tones in our videos where we educate people and probably also on a separate YouTube channel since not all of it would fit on the MrBeast channel, but educating people on investing and showing them "what is a Roth IRA" and just like taking my younger audience through a similar experience I had with Woody back in the day. You probably could find that video where he talked about investing."
"Um, and so I'd love to make financial..."
Jeff Bezos just told everyone to stop worrying about AI taking their jobs.
Then he said something most people completely missed.
Bezos: “I am not worried about this. I find that people, all of us, we are so unimaginative about what future jobs are going to look like.”
He’s not dismissing you. He’s challenging you.
Every generation has been terrible at predicting what comes next.
Nobody in 1995 was planning to become a YouTuber. Nobody in 2005 was dreaming of managing a Shopify brand from their kitchen table.
Those jobs didn’t exist until the world shifted and someone with imagination filled the gap.
That’s the pattern Bezos is pointing at.
The jobs that AI creates won’t look like anything we’d recognize today. They never do.
What changes is that the barrier between wanting to do something and actually doing it is about to collapse.
The person who always wanted to build but couldn’t code will build. The person who always wanted to create but couldn’t afford a studio will create.
AI doesn’t eliminate ambition. It removes the obstacles standing in front of it.
The people who thrive next won’t be the most technical. They’ll be the most imaginative. Bezos isn’t warning you. He’s telling you the door is wide open.
Some people use the Force… 🤨 I prefer a well-timed toast and a five-year mission. 🥂
May the Fourth be with you… if you must but let’s be honest; I’ve been boldly going since before it was cool. 😉🚀
