Great ideas rarely emerge from isolation

Dakota

Lifelong Midwesterner, currently living in Kansas City along with the wife and two pets (dog-Sunny, cat-Kit Cat). I'm passionate about building solutions with outcomes of healthier communities and people, which is what has led me to working in an endeavor that's aimed at helping to drive adoption of regenerative agriculture. (check out Rooted Ag) Beyond work, I love spending time in nature and observing, making warm connections with people, and listening to good music.

Rebecca

I’ve lived inside the finance function my entire career - from ex-big 4er to in-house finance leader. I’ve built finance teams and systems from the ground up, led complex migrations, and battled the broken workflows that define today’s finance tech stack. I’ve seen the pain from every angle: as a service provider, a builder, and a user. Founders chase product-market fit. I am the validation of the problem, and the founder-market fit. I'm not just building software; I’m rebuilding the infrastructure I wish I had. As an ex-accountant turned founder, I’m on a mission to modernize the back office and deliver an all-in-one AI finance platform that replaces fragmentation with clarity, speed, and automation.
