What an AI-Native General Ledger Means for FP&A: John Glasgow

The discussion centers on Campfire, an AI-native ERP system, and its potential to revolutionize FP&A by providing accounting and finance teams with enhanced capabilities. John Glasgow, CEO and CFO of Campfire, shares his experiences in FP&A and strategic finance, which led to the development of Campfire. A key focus is on how Campfire enables more granular data analysis, moving beyond the limitations of traditional ERP systems that often require data summarization. Campfire's AI-driven auto-tagging and custom-built foundational model are highlighted as key differentiators, offering improved data security, attribution, and performance compared to general-purpose AI models. The conversation also explores how Campfire helps companies achieve faster month-end closes and gain real-time insights, ultimately empowering finance teams to focus on strategic initiatives rather than manual data preparation.
