@tbpn@levie The distinction I’d make is between retrieving evidence and completing work. In finance, a contract still has to agree with invoices, payments and the ledger. I’d expect pricing power to shift toward systems that can verify the result, even if agents replace their UI.
@yacinelearning@mrdrozdov For the interview, I’d ask how they evaluate retrieval for “which customers haven’t paid?” Finding relevant invoices isn’t enough; you need complete coverage and matching payments. What benchmark catches a plausible answer built from an incomplete set?
@royrubin05 My test for neutrality: remove referral fees and rerun the same request. If the recommendation changes, whose agent is it? More supply helps, but I’d want the agent’s commercial incentives visible alongside its reasons for choosing.
@vimtor My CTO and I have been arguing about this for months: should Porter be the accountant, or should Claude and ChatGPT be the accountant using Porter? We’re building for both.
Porter handles bookkeeping, accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, taxes, and financial planning so you can focus on what matters: growing your business.
A finance function is usually built one salary at a time.
Bookkeeping first.
Then receivables and payables.
Payroll. Reporting. Planning.
A controller to keep the pieces aligned.
Growing companies often need that depth long before the org chart can support it.
Porter brings those responsibilities into one accountable team, working inside a modern financial system that keeps the books, the work and the business context connected.
The team runs bookkeeping, AR, AP, payroll and FP&A.
Porter AI surfaces what changed, tracks what requires attention and answers financial questions in plain English.
Every figure can be traced back to its source.
Enterprise-grade finance, sized for the company you are building now.
