Big milestone: Campfire raised a $65M Series B, bringing total funding to over $100M in 12 weeks. 🔥 Co-led by @Accel and Ribbit, with continued support from @ycombinator and @FoundationCap, plus angels from @tryramp, @Snowflake, @clay, @supabase & more.

Today at the @ycombinator I got to be a listen to the conversation between @john__glasgow and Amol Hardikar CFO of @Replit Replit scaled from ~$2–3M ARR to $100M (June 2024) to $200M (September 2025). The CFO mandated “nothing ships without finance sign‑off” and embedded finance in product/AI meetings. Build BI inside finance early: hire finance-BI and strategic finance sooner than you think. Data questions often outpace pure accounting/engineering in AI companies. Value > cost in pricing: enterprise buyers justify AI via headcount and SaaS replacement. Power users are least price‑sensitive—price to value and quality of revenue. Automate smartly: partner with regional experts for new markets; build in-house when speed/fit wins (e.g., custom contract management), buy when time-constrained. Run like operators, not a cost center: R&D credit study saved $8M; finance co-drives partnerships and enterprise deals. Focus your metrics: 1–3 North Stars beat 180 KPIs. Company-wide weekly ship goals keep execution tight. Tools mentioned: ERP: @Meet_campfire (continuous close, multi-entity, conversational workflows, close management) Stack: @getsphere (sales tax), Hex (dashboards), @tryRamp Bottom line: finance should be embedded, data-driven, and shipping weekly. Treat equity roles like venture bets, mandate finance involvement early, and use AI to close faster and raise the bar on decision quality. #FinanceLeadership #CFO #FPnA #FinanceOps #AIinFinance #FinTech #RevOps #Hypergrowth #B2BSoftware #PricingStrategy #DataDriven #BusinessIntelligence #ContinuousClose #ERP #SaaSFinance

big moves in the erp space 👀

Campfire Founder, @john__glasgow be going on @TBPN at 1:55PM PT to talk about our $65M Series B, make sure to tune in!

We're bringing together a curated group of finance leaders from SF's top SaaS, Fintech, and AI companies for an evening of conversation, connections, and great food. We’ve prepared some spicy discussion topics around scaling finance ops, AI in accounting, and the evolving CFO role. 📍 Potrero Hill, SF 🗓️ September 17, 2025 from 6:00PM to 9:00PM 🔗 lu.ma/r3gwcooe @NumeralTax is excited to be working with @SequenceHQ_ x @runwayco x @meet_campfire on this fantastic event. See you there?

The Figma IPO shows that people still believe that foundational software is a must. Even with all the new AI-driven UI/UX tools, you can't do it without building the foundation. This is why i'm so bullish on companies like @Meet_campfire , @puzzlefin, and @ParallelFPA .

Campfire just closed a $35 million round with @Accel, @ycombinator, and @FoundationCap! 👏 I finally got @john__glasgow on Tech Finance by @TurpentineMedia to talk about what they’re building. We’ve bumped into each other on the accounting circuit for years, and this conversation was long overdue. We talked about why rebuilding the general ledger is still one of the hardest businesses to build, why now is the right time for it, and how @Meet_campfire is transforming accounting from manual workflows into a strategic function. One of the angels in their round was @heysowmya, the controller who helped scale finance at @OpenAI and @Rippling, and one of my all-time favorite episodes we recorded! When operators write checks, I pay attention. John is one of the leading voices in accounting AI, so don't miss this episode! Link in the comments👇

Got sent a cleverly cool camping care package from @Meet_campfire This is modern marketing✅ love it.

We’ve had great experiences with @Meet_campfire for clients who think they need NetSuite

Stumbled across this site today – W's in the chat for this scroll animation from the @Meet_campfire team. So unique

Testing @Meet_campfire and loving it so far.

Finance leaders, pickleball, and great company—what more could you want?! 🏓 We teamed up with @Meet_campfire to host a pickleball tournament for over 20 finance pros, and the turnout (and energy!) did not disappoint. From epic rallies to casual networking, it was the perfect blend of competition and connection. Big thanks to everyone who joined us—we can’t wait to do it again soon! 🙌

Would love an intro from a partnership perspective. Most of this can be automated by having the firm put their clients on a modern accounting ledger for tech companies that natively handles SaaS reporting, accruals, FX, etc such as @Meet_campfire.

That’s our entire mission at meetcampfire.com - the modern version of NetSuite.

You can’t think strategically if the bulk of your time is dedicated to repetitive tasks. It’s time for software that automates work, so finance and accounting pros can focus on delivering financial insights that help their companies thrive.
