AI-driven finance automation platform Maximor has secured $9 million in seed funding, led by Foundation Capital with participation from BoldCap, Gaia Ventures, and a distinguished group of founders, CFOs, and finance leaders from companies such as Perplexity, Zuora, Zoom, Ramp, Gusto, MongoDB, and the Big four accounting firms.

The funding marks a significant milestone for the company as it accelerates its mission to build the world’s first AI-powered finance team, one that quietly takes over the back-end workload, enabling finance professionals to focus on strategic decision making rather than repetitive tasks.

Today’s finance teams are burdened by manual processes, from pulling data across fragmented systems and reconciling accounts to parsing contracts and preparing reports. Despite widespread ERP migrations, many organizations remain trapped in spreadsheets and manual reconciliations, spending nights and weekends closing the books.

Maximor aims to change that. Its AI agents integrate seamlessly with existing systems such as ERPs, CRMs, billing platforms, payroll, and banks to automate essential processes like account reconciliation, journal entry preparation, revenue allocation, close management, and audit reporting.

The platform is designed to work hand-in-hand with finance professionals rather than replace them. By taking over the repetitive work, the AI agents free teams to focus on oversight, analysis, and strategy. Every output generated by Maximor is fully traceable and audit-ready, ensuring transparency, compliance, and confidence in every transaction.

Maximor’s launch comes at a critical time for the finance sector. With nearly 75% of accountants nearing retirement and the CPA pipeline shrinking by 30% over the past decade, organizations are facing severe talent shortages.

At the same time, financial complexity is growing due to multi-entity operations, usage-based pricing models, and tighter audit regulations. Traditional solutions relying on increased headcount are no longer sustainable, creating a pressing need for automation that scales intelligently.

Guided by principles of system-agnostic design, audit-ready documentation, and human-AI collaboration, Maximor positions itself not as another SaaS add-on but as a trusted virtual teammate.

Its approach promises to deliver business-as-usual continuity while eliminating manual busywork — helping finance teams operate with greater speed, accuracy, and confidence.
