The Finance Function Is Changing

For decades, companies built finance teams the same way: hire locally, hire slowly, hire just enough to keep up. That doesn’t work anymore – and it’s not just because good accountants are harder to find.

Two Forces Are Colliding

The talent pipeline is shrinking

Accounting unemployment sits near 1-2%, 75% of CPAs are at or near retirement, and the number of new accounting graduates has dropped 44% over the past decade.

AI raised the bar for finance talent

Someone still has to review, judge, and stand behind what AI produces. 93% of large companies have deployed AI in finance. Only 43% of their CFOs are confident in the governance around it. That’s not a technology gap. It’s a people gap.

Our founders, Aman Puri and Molly Liu, experienced this problem first-hand. Aman was a founding member of SoftBank's fintech investing arm, and watched startup after startup struggle to close their books on time - not for lack of tools, but for lack of people who could run them. Molly was an early PM at Ramp, working closely with controllers to automate their accounting function. But no matter how good the automation got, teams stayed underwater, and the bottleneck was never the software. It was finding people skilled enough to use it well and apply judgment.

That's why MAVI exists. High-skill finance talent isn't a nice-to-have - it's the layer of judgment that automation still can't replace, and it's too critical to compromise on. AI has changed what it means to be a great finance professional, but it hasn't changed how much a business depends on one. MAVI matches you with the top 2% of that talent, vetted rigorously, so there's never a gap on your team.
