San Jose, CA – Mar 4 — Auditoria.AI, the leader in agentic artificial intelligence for the Office of the CFO, today announced record performance for its most recent fiscal year, marking another year of rapid growth, product expansion, and enterprise adoption. To support this growth, the company doubled its headcount over the past year, scaling operations to support rising global demand for agentic AI solutions purpose-built for finance.
As enterprises move from AI experimentation to operational deployment, Auditoria continues to see strong momentum among finance leaders seeking secure, pre-built agentic systems that deliver immediate business outcomes. This growth is reflected in a fiscal year that closed with triple-digit revenue growth and fourth-quarter bookings that nearly tripled compared to the previous year, driven by accelerating enterprise adoption across financial services, healthcare, technology, and consulting.
“Finance leaders no longer want to simply experiment with AI pilots and AI delivery maybes; they want production-grade systems that they can seamlessly deploy in their existing environments,” said Rohit Gupta, CEO and Founder of Auditoria.AI. “Our AI agents for the office of the CFO understand finance workflows, operate within enterprise guardrails, and deliver immediate and measurable impact. Reflecting on the past year, our continued momentum and the growing interest in Auditoria are indicative of an industry that is ready for AI finance automation systems that work.”
From experimentation to enterprise execution The past fiscal year marked a significant inflexion point for Auditoria. New customer wins included organizations such as Skyscanner, Simmons Bank, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and Vizient, reflecting growing cross-industry demand for AI-powered finance operations. This customer growth is supported by global expansion, including a UK-based office and a primary London data center, complemented by a secondary facility in Ireland, reinforcing its commitment to sovereign AI infrastructure, regional data residency compliance, and serving clients where they are.
The company also advanced its product portfolio with the introduction of SmartResearch, which is scheduled to become generally available next quarter. Early customer deployments have already helped shape the solution into a fully operational capability, enabling finance teams to conduct intelligent, contextual financial research directly within their existing workflows.
Building the leadership bench for scale The company strengthened its commercial leadership with the appointment of David Osborne as Chief Revenue Officer. Osborne joins Auditoria after leading revenue organizations at Insightly and Qualtrics, where he was part of the sales leadership team through its acquisition by SAP and subsequent IPO. With significant experience building go-to-market engines, scaling enterprise sales teams, and leading global revenue functions from early-stage expansion to enterprise maturity, Osborne is chartered with spearheading Auditoria’s next chapter of explosive growth.
Further reinforcing its partner-led strategy, Auditoria appointed Vince Barrett as SVP of Strategic Alliances. Barrett joins Auditoria after leading global alliance initiatives at Workday, including the Big Four accounting and global systems integrator partnerships, and previously built and scaled alliances and channels at Celonis. In parallel, Dean Harrigan was appointed to lead UK operations, anchoring Auditoria’s growing European presence.
Recognition from the firms shaping the AI agenda For the sixth consecutive year, Auditoria was included on the Constellation Research shortlist and received mentions in leading analyst reports from firms including Gartner and Forrester. These acknowledgements reflect Auditoria’s growing role in shaping the category of agentic AI applications for finance.
Auditoria’s momentum has also been reflected in industry recognition. During the year, the company was named to the CB Insights Fintech 100, highlighting its role in pioneering agentic AI in finance. It was also included in the DataTech50 list of top data technology innovators in the United States and recognized by The Financial Technology Report as one of the Top 50 Financial Technology Companies of 2025.
In addition, Adina Simu, Co-Founder and Chief Product and Commercial Officer, was recognized as a Top Women Leader in Financial Technology by The Financial Technology Report in its 2026 awards, further underscoring the strength of Auditoria’s executive leadership bench.
As the AI market matures, recognition from independent analysts underscores a key industry trend: enterprises are prioritizing specialized, domain-focused AI systems built to deliver measurable operational results over experimental, general-purpose deployments.
Embedding agentic AI inside trusted systems Auditoria continued to deepen its ecosystem strategy during the year, expanding integrations across major ERP and financial platforms, including Workday, Oracle Cloud, SAP, and Coupa. Rather than replacing systems of record, the company’s approach is to augment them, embedding agentic AI directly within existing finance environments.
By operating inside the systems finance teams already trust, Auditoria enables automation across accounts payable, accounts receivable, general ledger, and research workflows without heavy IT lift or infrastructure disruption.
“Systems of record remain foundational,” Gupta said. “The next trillion-dollar opportunity lies in systems of action, context, and decisions. Agentic AI sits on top of enterprise finance systems and transforms them from passive data repositories into active, intelligent operators.”
Expanding the agentic skillset for the Office of the CFO Looking ahead, Auditoria is expanding its agentic AI skillset within accounts payable, with new capabilities in vendor risk management and reconciliations scheduled for release this quarter. These enhancements reinforce the company’s commitment to delivering specialized, finance-native AI skills rather than generic automation tools.

SES, a space solutions company, is expanding humanitarian connectivity at the Farchana refugee settlement in Chad in cooperation with emergency.lu, the public-private partnership led by Luxembourg’s Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs, Defence, Development Cooperation and Foreign Trade and the UN Refugee Agency. In the framework of the Connectivity for Refugees initiative, the deployment uses SES’ O3b mPOWER satellite network to provide dependable, high-speed internet for humanitarian teams and essential services for refugees.
This is the first emergency.lu deployment using O3b mPOWER satellites in Medium Earth Orbit (MEO), an expansion beyond the program’s previous use of geostationary (GEO) satellites for rapid disaster-response missions. It also marks a new application for the platform.
While emergency.lu has traditionally supported first responders and emergency operations, this deployment is designed to connect refugees and the humanitarian organizations enabling services such as online learning, digital skills training, community connectivity centers as well as reliable day-to-day communications.
The deployment was carried out by Luxembourg Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs, Defence, Development Cooperation and Foreign Trade’s personnel on the ground, following hands-on training at SES’ Luxembourg headquarters. Built for sustained use and flexible expansion, the communication kit is designed to support longer-term operations and evolving needs on site.
By adding O3b mPOWER to the emergency.lu toolkit, the partnership strengthens its ability to provide connectivity beyond the first days of a crisis, supporting continued access to education, healthcare services and communications when displacement and humanitarian response extend for months.
“Connectivity can change a day — and a life. With this deployment, a classroom can keep teaching and access guidance, humanitarian workers can support displaced communities, and families can stay in touch,” said Adel Al-Saleh, CEO of SES. “With the addition of SES’ high-throughput, low-latency Medium Earth Orbit capabilities, we have adapted the solution to move from emergency restoration to everyday communications reliability for displaced communities, and are proud to support the Luxembourg Government’s teams as they bring this service online in Farchana.”

Featuring dual 4K displays, efficient Intel processing, and flexible mounting options, the Intelli TWL01 Edge marks AAEON UP brand’s entry into the multimedia space.
(Taipei, Taiwan – March 4) AAEON’s UP brand (Stock Code: 6579) has announced the release of the Intelli TWL01 Edge, an Industrial Multimedia PC with dual 4K displays, multiple mounting options, and a range of Intel® Core™ Processor N-series CPUs (formerly Twin Lake).
Built to provide a cost-effective platform for multimedia solution building, the Intelli TWL01 Edge hosts two HDMI 2.0b ports capable of dual simultaneous 4K displays. In addition to this, AAEON notes that the system’s Intel® Processor N-series platform grants users access to both Intel® UHD Graphics and DirectX 12.1 graphics API support, for the purpose of leveraging interactive dashboard functionality, reduced frame latency, and more efficient video rendering for both smaller kiosk and video conferencing suite setups as well as commercial large-scale video walls and interactive billboards.
The Intelli TWL01 Edge is both compact at 152mm x 124.5mm x 39mm and fanless, a design choice driven by market user requests for a system that can be discreetly installed and operate with minimal noise. Moreover, the system offers versatile mounting options, with DIN Rail, VESA, and wall mounting available, allowing the device to be securely mounted in high-vibration settings, clutter-free integration with monitors or kiosks, and even secure media control room cabinets.

For storage, the Intelli TWL01 Edge comes with 64GB of eMMC. In addition to this, the system offers an M.2 2280 M-Key slot for the integration of high-speed NVMe SSD storage. With this balance, the Intelli TWL01 Edge can maintain local OS storage while leveraging the accelerated read/write performance of external NVMe for large media libraries, faster app launches, and UI responsiveness. Along with its SSD support, the Intelli TWL01 Edge provides an M.2 2230 E-Key slot for Wi-Fi module installation.
The system’s physical I/Os are simple yet robust, with four USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, two RJ-45 ports for Gigabit Ethernet, a 10-bit GPIO, and a single COM port for RS-232/422/485.
For OS support, the Intelli TWL01 Edge is compatible with Windows® 11 LTSC, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, and Yocto 5.1.
