Mitch Petracca, CPA — CEO

"I know I should use AI... but where do I start?" → I’ve heard this 300 times this year. People know AI and automation can help with their finances. They just don’t know how. That’s the gap, and why I’m building around one idea: Accounting + AI + Automation. Every week I talk to business owners, CPAs, and finance leaders. Almost all of them are stuck: ➡️ Tools, but not strategy ➡️ They’ve got data, but not insight ➡️ A finance function… but not a system What they want isn’t more Excel workbooks They want clarity. Speed. Confidence in the numbers. So I'm building two businesses to help: 1️⃣ FINSIDER.AI ~AI-Powered Financial Intelligence~ Instant, real-time strategy with an AI you can chat to 🔹 QofE, forecasts, KPI decks, deal metrics 🔹 100% data coverage — not just samples 🔹 Explained in plain English, ready in hours Use it when you’ve got the data, but need insight at speed. 2️⃣ FORWARD FIRM ~Modern CPA + Advisory~ Your all-in-one accounting and tax partner. 🔹 One partner for all financial moving parts 🔹 Proactive advice, same-day responsiveness 🔹 Covers business + personal finances, start to finish Use us when you want strategy, not just compliance. 👋 If you need help implementing AI or automation into your business or CPA practice, send me a message. I’ll show you what’s working and how to put it in motion fast.
