Dovetailing finance and product engineering can transform accounting.Full show notes hereThe DisruptorsWith Liz FarrFor CPA TrendlinesWhen Jeff Seibert, CEO and founder of Digits, was at Twitter, he was astonished by the difference in data quality and timeliness between the product engineering and the finance sides of the business.On the product engineering side, testing tools, dashboards, and analytic tools provided real-time data on “exactly what your users are clicking on, what your servers are doing every second.” At the same time, “I was waiting two to three weeks for our accountant to give me a black and white P&L,” he recalls, even with “100 people in corporate finance.”MORE DISRUPTORS: Candy Bellau: The $350 Pricing Mistake that Nearly Broke this Boutique Firm | The Disruptors | Poe: What P.E.

Scaling New Heights Podcast: Cutting Edge Training For Small Business Advisors
On this episode of the Woodard Report podcast, Joe and Heather speak about the rapid acceleration of AI and how it is reshaping the accounting profession, from audit and compliance work to more advisory-focused roles. They explore the importance of maintaining the "soul" of a business in an increasingly automated world, discuss the rise of AI agents and emerging technologies, and share insights on how accountants can adapt by leaning into their uniquely human strengths.

Indi and John are joined by Kendrick from Fishbowl, inventory and manufacturing software for businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets but aren't ready for a full ERP. Kendrick brings a US perspective to a week dominated by AI agent launches, a major tax authority investment and a string of Sage announcements. Anthropic has launched ten ready-to-run agents aimed at finance operations, covering general ledger reconciliation, statement review, journal preparation and KYC screening. The hosts debate whether these genuinely displace specialist close management tools or simply make existing model capabilities more accessible, and where the line between "human in the loop" and "human who gets sued" actually sits. Campfire has officially opened its first London office, adding VAT support and UK-specific functionality as it builds out boots on the ground ahead of the conference season. John covers the story and explains why a US ERP with existing UK clients making this move matters for the market. HMRC is rolling out 28,000 Microsoft Copilot licences with a target of 50,000, positioning itself as the world's most AI-enabled tax authority. Kendrick contrasts the approach with a far more cautious IRS, while Indi makes the point that a faster, sharper HMRC changes the maths for accountants who rely on year-end reconciliation as a safety net. Sage had a substantial week. Indi covers the expansion of its developer platform across Intacct, X3 and Sage Active, including the launch of Sage Agent Builder, an AI gateway and usage-based revenue sharing for partners. John follows with Sage's acquisition of Doyen AI, a data migration tool founded in 2024 that Sage moved quickly to bring in-house. NetSuite has released SuiteCloud Agent Skills, knowledge packages that help AI coding assistants build and customise inside NetSuite without breaking things. Kendrick, coming from the ERP world, gives his take on why guardrails in AI-assisted development matter more than the speed gains. Digits has launched an MCP server connecting its agentic general ledger to tools including Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor on a read-only basis. John and Kendrick discuss what the read-only decision signals about where Digits thinks the value of its product still sits. The episode closes with a story that cuts against the week's optimism: Google's AI overviews are serving UK users outdated government information pulled from unmaintained gov.uk pages. One example, the cost of registering a charity, returned answers ranging from free to over £183, against an actual fee of £100 online. Indi makes the case that before anyone hands autonomous agents the keys, it's worth checking whether they're working from data that should have been retired years ago. This episode is sponsored by Advancetrack, the outsourced accounting and tax service trusted by UK practices for over 20 years. 00:00 Introduction to DigiTools and Fishbowl 03:27 Claude Coming for Accountants? 10:30 Campfire opens in London 12:43 HMRC rolls out 28,000 Copilot licences 17:43 Sage expands developer platform for AI tools 26:21 Sage acquires Doyen for data transfers 28:30 NetSuite brings AI speed for SuiteCloud developers 32:11 Digits MCP expands AI utilisation 36:16 AI giving wrong Gov data to UK users 38:00 Nominate your candidates for a Digital Disruptor award!
Over a year ago, CSI did a three-part deep dive on co-packaged optics after Nvidia dedicated an entire segment of its GTC keynote to the technology — naming Lumentum and Coherent as the primary beneficiaries. The analysis was right. They did not buy.That mistake is now worth talking about directly.Lumentum just reported fiscal Q3 2026 revenue up 90% year over year. Q4 guidance implies triple-digit year-over-year growth. Nvidia made a $2 billion investment in both Lumentum and Coherent, and separately announced a major fiber optic cable manufacturing expansion with Corning. Co-packaged optics products have not even begun shipping in volume yet — that catalyst hits in December 2026. The case for Lumentum continues to build.But this is CSI, and true conviction in a business means covering what could go wrong as well as what is going right. There is a significant dilution story unfolding that every Lumentum shareholder needs to understand before adding to a position.When the stock was trading at roughly one-tenth of its current price, Lumentum raised cash by issuing convertible notes — a type of debt that converts to equity when the stock reaches certain price milestones. The stock has now blown through those milestones. All of that convertible debt is now eligible to convert into stock at terms that are extremely favorable for the debt holders and extremely expensive for existing shareholders. The result: shares outstanding are expected to increase by approximately 20% over the next two quarters. Nick and Kasey explain the full mechanics clearly — why it happened, what it costs, and whether the revenue acceleration can outrun the dilution.Also covered: the Qorvo fab acquisition in North Carolina that adds indium phosphide manufacturing capacity in two to three years, and what operating leverage looks like when a company goes from negative margins to all-time highs in the span of a few quarters.What we cover:— Why CSI did the deep dive on co-packaged optics and still did not buy — the honest lesson— Lumentum fiscal Q3 2026: 90% revenue growth — what drove it and what comes next— Q4 guidance: triple-digit YoY growth before CPO products even ramp— Nvidia's $2B investment in Lumentum and Coherent — the supply chain signal— Nvidia and Corning fiber optic expansion — Nvidia's hands all over the supply chain— Co-packaged optics — the December 2026 catalyst that has not landed yet— Operating leverage in action: from negative margins to all-time highs— Convertible notes explained: why ~20% share dilution is coming in 2026— Qorvo North Carolina fab acquisition — InP capacity coming in two to three years— The bottleneck in laser module manufacturing and why Lumentum dominates itSponsored by fiscal.ai — 25% off any paid plan through May 14 only.

On this episode of the Woodard Report podcast, Joe speaks with Kacee Johnson about how artificial intelligence is reshaping the accounting profession far beyond simple efficiency gains.

Kacee also shares insights on AI hype versus reality, the future of advisory-focused firms, and the mission behind the new AI Native Accounting Foundation to help firms navigate AI adoption responsibly and effectively.

Ryan Pearcy, Indi Tatla and John Toon are back together covering QuickBooks updates, a significant Active Workpapers release, and two AI stories worth your attention. QuickBooks has restructured its payroll offering into three tiers: Core for simple automated salary runs, Premium adding time tracking and self-serve tools, and Elite bringing in geo-fencing and project profitability. Indi covers Intuit Intelligence, a conversational AI built into QuickBooks that lets business owners ask questions about their own data. She makes the point that QuickBooks has always been more direct about going after the business owner than Xero — this is the latest iteration of that strategy. John adds the arrival of auto-save in invoices and estimates, though he and Ryan disagree on whether it genuinely qualifies. Tax Systems has launched an AI assistant for cross-border tax via its Loctax acquisition, covering 220 jurisdictions and drawing on verified content from the International Bureau of Fiscal Documentation. Indi's take: the biggest problem with AI in tax is not speed, it's trust. John raises the billing question — if research time drops significantly, hourly-rate firms face a difficult conversation. John covers a LinkedIn video from Daryl Aw demonstrating the use of Claude to produce financial statements. Pretty much any accountant can do this. The harder question is whether you can do it reliably at scale. Digits has moved to outcome-based pricing. Firms pay only when 95% of transactions are fully automated with no human edits. Ryan thinks they're either very confident or making a desperate growth bet. John says he'd put all his most complex clients on it and never pay a penny. Also covered: WorkGuru's Easter release with new Sales and Operations Hubs, Certinia's Veda AI engine for professional services firms, and the Digital Disruptors Awards returning at Accountex North in Manchester.

Growing Your Firm | Strategies for Accountants, CPA's, Bookkeepers , and Tax Professionals
Is the traditional general ledger dead? As small businesses and startups demand real-time data, the standard "wait two weeks for a black-and-white P&L" model is becoming obsolete. In this episode of Growing Your Firm, host David Cristello sits down with Jeff Seibert, co-founder and CEO of Digits and former Head of Consumer Product at Twitter (now X). Jeff reveals why he spent over five years and $100M in venture capital to rebuild accounting software from the ground up to be AI-native. Whether you're a firm owner looking to scale or a tech-forward CPA, this conversation explores how "Agentic Accounting" is moving the profession from manual data entry to high-level advisory. In this episode, we discuss: The Genesis of Digits: How Jeff's experience scaling Twitter exposed the massive data gap between engineering and finance. What is an Agentic General Ledger? Moving beyond "bolt-on" AI to a vector-graph data model where the intelligence is baked into the ledger itself. Automating the Month-End Close: Why Jeff predicts 90% of bookkeeping, reconciliation, and schedules will be automated by the end of 2026. Classification Accuracy: Why LLMs (like ChatGPT) fail at bookkeeping and how Digits achieved 97% accuracy using custom predictive models. The Future of Firm Competition: Why the gap between AI-adopting firms and traditional firms will create a "margin opportunity" that reshapes the industry. Jeff's Top AI Tools for Founders: Insights into Whispr Flow (for voice dictation) and Granola (for frictionless meeting notes).
Let me be real with you for a second. I used to be the guy saying "I don't have time to learn another tool." I said the same thing about social media back in 2012, and I paid for it. Every single time I waited, I left money, time, and momentum on the table. So when AI started picking up speed, I made a decision: I was going all in, not as some tech bro, but as a business owner who needed to do more with less and still get home for dinner. In this solo episode, I am giving you my full AI playbook. No fluff, no theory, just 7 tips, tools, and tactics you can actually deploy this week to grow faster, reclaim your time, and build the kind of business that works for your life. Here is why this matters right now. While you are listening to this, your competitor might be running what is essentially a 10-person operation for $30 a month using AI. That gap is opening up fast, and the entrepreneurs who figure this out now are going to be playing a completely different game than everyone else in 12 months. The stats back it up. Entrepreneurs using AI are saving 310 hours a year. That is 13 full days back in your life. Productivity is up 40% on average, and for every $1 invested in AI, businesses are seeing $3.70 in return. This is not a gamble. This is the safest bet you can make right now. Here are the 7 moves I am breaking down in this episode: Tip 1: AI as Your Content Second Brain — Use AI to draft emails, posts, pitches, and outlines, then add your own voice on top. You are the editor, not the writer. Tools: Claude, ChatGPT, Jasper. Tip 2: Automate Customer Communications — Build an AI-powered FAQ sequence for your top 5 customer questions. Set it up once and let it run while you sleep. Tools: Intercom, Manychat, HubSpot AI, Tidio. Tip 3: Market Research & Competitor Intelligence — Use AI to surface your competitor's biggest customer complaints in minutes and build your marketing around every single one. Tools: Perplexity AI, Claude with web search. Tip 4: Automate Operations with AI Agents — Map your most time-consuming weekly task and automate it. Run a one-person company like a 50-person operation. Tools: Zapier AI, Make.com, n8n. Tip 5: AI for Financial Forecasting — Export 12 months of revenue, paste it into Claude, and ask it to analyze trends, find growth opportunities, and flag risks. No CFO needed. Tools: Fathom, Digits, Claude. Tip 6: Multiply Your Sales Output — Before every sales call, paste your prospect's LinkedIn into Claude and get their top challenges and conversation openers ready. Tools: Apollo.io, Clay, Lavender. Tip 7: Build Your Personal AI Operating System — Write a brain dump of your role, goals, and challenges. Paste it into Claude every Monday and use it as your strategic advisor for the week. Tools: Claude, ChatGPT, Notion AI. The biggest truth bomb I can drop on you is this: AI will not replace entrepreneurs who are great at human connection. But it will absolutely replace entrepreneurs who refuse to use it. The Balanced, Fulfilling, Badass life is about working smarter so you can pour your energy into what actually matters, your relationships, your health, and your purpose. AI handles the work a machine can do so you can do the work only you can do. Start with one tip from this episode. Just one. The one that made you think "oh yeah, I need that." Open Claude or ChatGPT in the next 24 hours, paste in your biggest business challenge, and treat it like an advisor who never sleeps and never judges you. You will be surprised at what comes back.

Stay informed with the latest accounting tech news and fintech news in this episode of Digi-Tools in Accrual World - this episode sponsored by Advancetrack. Indi Tatla and John Toon are joined by Robbie from Forvis Mazars to discuss the rapid shift in the UK software landscape as MTD for ITSA approaches. The team breaks down the recent QuickBooks update for sole traders and the strategic move by Sage and Barclays to provide an integrated banking and accounting experience.

Buckle up, Chicago: It's going to be a wild weather ride for the next week. “What we're about to endure over the next couple days can only be classified as the real March madness."

CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch seven years ago, we've published more than 30,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 150,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Silver's breathtaking five-week ride — from record highs above $120 to a sharp correction and stabilization near $93 — is a masterclass in how real bull markets behave. But the price action alone doesn't tell the full story. The mysterious COMEX glitch, which halted metals markets at a critical moment, has raised serious questions about paper price discovery and market structure. At the same time, China's triple-digit silver pricing and India's sweeping shifts in precious metals policy are reshaping global demand dynamics in ways many Western investors may be underestimating. Listen to the full breakdown to understand what's really driving silver — and why this volatility may be signaling something much bigger ahead.

Everyone wants to know what it takes to live a long, healthy life and if living to 100 is something you can actually influence. Morgan, Sam, and Ryann break down the nutrition, movement, and lifestyle habits most consistently associated with reaching old age in good health. They look at what centenarians tend to have in common, why healthspan matters as much as lifespan, and how strength, metabolic health, sleep, stress management, and social connection all play a role over time. Instead of chasing extreme longevity strategies or magic formulas, the conversation focuses on the small, repeatable habits that stack the odds in your favor, now and decades from now.

On tonight's Flyover Conservatives Show, we bring you two powerful interviews you won't want to miss. Dr. Kirk Elliott breaks down the biggest silver signal since 2001, explaining why silver is up 102% this year and how a rare technical breakout could drive it into triple digits by spring. He also exposes the global supply crunch, Thanksgiving trading halt, and why tangible assets are now outpacing anything tied to fiat. Then we sit down with filmmaker Michael Pack, director of The Last 600 Meters — the Iraq War documentary PBS blocked for 17 years. Pack reveals why the film was nearly silenced, the real stories of the Marines and soldiers who lived these battles, and his mission to train the next generation of non-woke documentary filmmakers.On tonight's Flyover Conservatives Show, we bring you two powerful interviews you won't want to miss.

Joel's got the scoop on a Hollywood icon who’s about to hit triple digits and reckons he’s cracked the code on staying upright for a century. It’s part gym routine, part good vibes, and absolutely not what you’d expect from someone who’s been tap dancing since colour TV.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
“Why do I have to tell your chatbot to do something? Just do it.”In this episode, Jeff Seibert – founder of Digits (AI-native accounting platform), former Twitter Head of Product, and the engineer behind Crashlytics (now on 6 billion devices) – reveals what it actually takes to build AI-native companies from scratch. We explore why most companies are getting AI wrong by bolting chatbots onto old products, how to structure teams for extreme velocity, and why the accounting industry is about to experience its HP-35 calculator moment. Jeff's bold prediction: the entire month-end close process will be automated within 12 months.What You'll Discover:[02:45] Why Accounting Data Quality is Decades Behind Product Analytics → The genesis story of Digits: when Twitter's 100-person finance team couldn't answer a simple budget question in under three weeks[08:28] Building Companies for AI From Day One → How ML-native architecture differs from traditional databases and why this matters more than the AI hype suggests[10:31] The 65-Person Company That Runs All-Hands Every 48 Hours → Jeff's radical approach to velocity: weekly sprints, fractal team structures, and why they'll never hire “lone eagle” engineers[15:20] Keeping Teams Intentionally Small at Scale → How to eliminate the “empire building” problem by dissociating engineering coaches from project staffing[19:59] What CEOs Actually Do That AI Can't Replace (Yet) → The 10%/90% leadership philosophy and why Sundar Pichai's “AI will replace CEOs” take misses the point[23:30] Disrupting QuickBooks: Technology vs. Distribution → Why accounting is uniquely suited for AI disruption and how startups can outpace 800-pound gorillas[26:14] Why AI Isn't Just Another Ajax Moment → The fundamental shift from “talk to our chatbot” to “the AI should just do it” – and what that means for software architecture[30:47] The Architectural Wall Ahead for Large Language Models → Why current LLM architecture won't reach AGI: the context window problem, lack of memory, and inability to backtrack during inference[32:05] The Great Work Displacement: Data Entry is Dead by 2026 → Jeff's evolved prediction on AI's economic impact and why the “lump of labor fallacy” applies to automation fearsKey Takeaways:AI-native means redesigning your data architecture from scratch, not adding a chatbot interface to legacy systemsRun your company on the shortest planning horizon you can see – for Digits, that's 4-5 week “horizons”Hire senior people who are “chill” with strong opinions, loosely held – and actively filter out solo operatorsThe most powerful AI products won't ask users what to do – they'll understand the goal and just executeAccounting's month-end close will be automated by end of 2025, marking one of AI's first complete workflow eliminationsAbout Jeff Seibert:Jeff is the founder and CEO of Digits, the AI-native accounting platform.

What happens when AI agents promise to transform accounting but create more cognitive burden than productivity gains? Blake and David explore the reality behind the AI agent hype as QuickBooks, Digits, and Big Four firms launch their "digital teammates." They also dig into Xero's massive $2.5 billion acquisition of Melio and what it means for the payments landscape. You'll learn why managing AI agents might be like managing offshore contractors—you wake up to work that's 80% done but everyone has questions. Plus, they discuss how external investors are reshaping the profession, why traditional CPA protections might go the way of car dealership laws, and the ongoing problems with audit quality enforcement despite millions in PCAOB fines.Sponsors Cloud Accountant Staffing - http://accountingpodcast.promo/cas Human at Scale - http://accountingpodcast.promo/humanChapters(00:00) - Introduction and Welcome (00:42) - David's Return and Big News (01:01) - The Acquisition of Emilio by Xero (01:33) - Implications of the Acquisition (04:52) - David's Journey with Bill Pay Solutions (06:42) - Emilio's Unique Features and Market Impact (10:47) - Xero's New Features and Updates (20:56) - QuickBooks AI Agents: A Game Changer?
