About ClockworkFounded in 2018Built by a CFO

CFO-level clarity for every business, whatever its size.

Clockwork was founded in 2018 by a CFO who got tired of watching great businesses fly blind. Before Clockwork, we ran an outsourced CFO practice for hundreds of companies and built every forecast by hand. Clockwork is that work, automated, so every business and every accounting firm can have it.

The Inspiration

We started Clockwork because we were tired of watching great businesses struggle with bad financial tools. Before Clockwork, we worked in FP&A and strategy at Boeing, spent 5 years building and running an outsourced CFO firm, and then served as full-time CFO and COO. We saw the same problem again and again: business owners forced to make major decisions using outdated spreadsheets, delayed reports, and financial software that was anything but smart. The tools weren't built for how real finance works. So we built one that is.

Building the best user experience

Clockwork was bootstrapped for its first 4 years while we built the most accurate and easy to use FP&A platform on the market. Clockwork combines AI with the logic of real FP&A, so founders and finance teams get forecasts they can trust and answers they can act on every day.

From our founder
“I built Clockwork because companies deserve better than spreadsheets. Most finance tools are just expensive band-aids. We're replacing them with something smarter: AI that actually helps you run your business.”
