WHAT WE DO

Rillet serves accounting and finance teams, the financial brains of their companies. Our job is to help them run the numbers with impossible speed, accuracy, and insight.

Rillet is the Agentic ERP built for modern finance teams. We help companies automate the most critical parts of finance, from closing the books and recognizing revenue to consolidating entities and reporting to investors. More than 600 companies run on Rillet, including Mercor, Scribe, and Function Health, and we partner with leading accounting firms including EY and KPMG.

We’re building in one of the largest software markets in the world, with the momentum to match. Rillet has raised more than $200M, is valued at $1B, and is backed by Sequoia, a16z, ICONIQ, Bain Capital Ventures, Oak HC/FT, and other leading investors. We’re using that backing to build the financial infrastructure for the next generation of companies and help every business run its numbers at the speed of AI.

Automate close at our top customers

- Embed deeply with 3–5 strategic customers or prospects and map their close end to end: bank coding, AP, revenue, accruals, commissions, reconciliations, flux, and reporting.

- Find the highest-leverage manual work and automate it in whatever way is highest quality and most durable.

- Build and deploy agents that do real accounting work, with the controls, review steps, and audit trail a controller would sign off on.

- Measure the impact in days-to-close, hours saved, and error rates

Turn customer work into product

- Spot the patterns across customers: the workaround three teams built separately is a feature we should ship.

- Write clear product briefs from what you see in the field.

- Build some of those features into Rillet yourself, from prototype to production, with engineering support.

- Partner with the relevant product domain teams on the rest

Raise the bar for agentic accounting

- Create reusable playbooks, templates, and agent patterns that the rest of Rillet's customers can adopt.

- Act as the voice of the controller inside Rillet: what good looks like, what auditors will ask, and where automation needs a human in the loop.

- You have 10+ years in accounting, with real month-end close ownership as a senior accountant, accounting manager, or controller, in-house or out of Big 4.

- You know GAAP well enough to defend an entry to an auditor, including revenue
