AI IMPLEMENTATION FOR ACCOUNTING & FINANCE

AI can now run your entire accounting function. Most companies haven’t let it.

We redesign accounting and finance processes around AI — not bolt it onto what you already have.

THE DISCONNECT

AI handles every accounting task now — including the ones that require judgment. So why hasn’t anything changed?

01

The capability exists

Current AI handles lease accounting, revenue recognition, consolidation, acquisition integration, audit evidence assembly — and virtually every other accounting and finance process. Not pattern matching. Judgment, assumptions, technical conclusions.

02

Companies aren’t seeing results

Most report no meaningful productivity gains from AI. Not because the technology is lacking — because they’re bolting AI onto processes designed for humans.

03

Advisory firms aren’t pushing it

Traditional consulting firms should be driving AI implementation for their clients. Most aren’t. AI implementation directly impacts the hourly billing model that funds their operations.

Our position: Any accounting or finance function can and should be fully run by AI at the preparer level. Humans become the review layer — designing, maintaining, and continuously improving the system. One controller overseeing automated systems, at any company size, any industry, any complexity level.

HOW IT WORKS

Four phases.

01

Analyze

We map your systems end to end — ERP, close tools, payment platforms, reporting stack — and identify where AI creates the highest-impact change. You receive a specific proposal: what we’d build, how it integrates with what you already use, and the fixed fee.

02

Build

Powered by Anthropic’s Claude, built against your real data, your actual chart of accounts, your specific workflows. We integrate into your existing platforms — not a separate tool your team has to learn. Testing happens in your environment with your data.

03

Deploy

The system goes live alongside your team for at least one full cycle — a close, a reconciliation period, a reporting deadline. You validate the output against your current process. We work on-site or remote depending on what the engagement needs. Payment is due only after it’s working.

04

Own It

Once live, the system is yours. Full documentation, prompt libraries, configuration guides — your team adjusts workflows and adapts to business changes without reengaging us. Model upgrades apply automatically.

PRICING

Fixed fee. Stated upfront. Pay only if it works.

70–90% less than traditional advisory. We’re AI-native — engagements close in days or hours, not weeks or months.

$2K – $12K

Per Process

Any single workflow — a reconciliation, AP coding, flux analysis, lease analysis, any individual process.

$8K – $25K

Full Close Cycle

End-to-end: reconciliations, commentary, reporting, IC eliminations, close orchestration.

$25K – $75K+

Full Department

Accounting and finance redesigned around AI from the ground up.

$500 – $10K

DIY Kits

Prompt libraries, blueprints, and guides your team uses to implement independently.

All fees scoped per engagement. No recurring charges, no hourly billing. Engagements scoped per significant class of transactions (SCOT) — Revenue, AP, Fixed Assets, Debt, Inventory, and beyond.

DATA PRIVACY & SECURITY

Your data stays yours.

Zero data retention

All AI processing runs through Anthropic’s API with zero data retention. Your financial data is not stored, logged, or used for model training.

Your environment

Automations run within your existing infrastructure. We don’t host your data on third-party platforms.

Scoped access

Each automation receives only the minimum data required. Access defined per-process, not org-wide.

Full audit trail

Every AI action logged — data accessed, output generated, decisions made. Full traceability for audit and regulatory review.

Encryption

All data transmitted via TLS 1.3. Locally cached data encrypted at rest, purged after processing.

SOC 2 aligned

Anthropic maintains SOC 2 Type II compliance. Deployment follows enterprise access control and incident response standards.

FOUNDED BY

Jason Forrester, CPA

Big 4 AuditFortune 50 Internal AuditAccounting Advisory

Big 4 audit across gaming, defense, media, pharma, and manufacturing. SOX redesign at a Fortune 50 media company. Senior Manager leading ASC 842, ASC 606, acquisition accounting, IPO readiness, and restatement engagements. Every major ERP, close platform, and payment system.

Built the AI engineering layer on top of that accounting foundation. Advisory firms have been slow to implement AI for their clients — whether for lack of technical capability or because automation cuts into billable hours. KnightLedger exists to close that gap.
