About

Hey, I'm Max and I'm the co-founder of Cranston AI. We're building a new kind of accounting company: faster, easier, and founder friendly, powered by AI. Over the last 5 years I've personally helped 10,000+ founders from all over the world close their books and file their taxes. Now I'm trying to automate it. Before starting Cranston AI, I built multiple businesses as a solo founder to millions in revenue and dozens of employees, was the first business hire at a YC startup, and was acquired by the Minnesota Timberwolves to lead their e-sports division. Former debate champion. Get in touch: Max@CranstonAI.com
