Campfire
Claude-based reconciliation and reporting features in accounting software
Campfire's customers cut bank reconciliation time by 90% after the accounting software added Claude-based features
Problem
Finance teams at high-growth tech companies spent long hours on month-end close, bank reconciliation and reporting. One customer said reconciliation had taken up 80% of its bandwidth.
Approach
Campfire, a maker of accounting software, built Claude into its platform. The features include a chat interface for questions about financial data, automated bank reconciliation that reads statements and flags discrepancies, and tools that merge outside data with Campfire records. The engineering team used Anthropic's cookbook to build the features.
Results
Takeaway
The gains came from AI built into the accounting product itself, so customers did not need a separate tool. The page does not say how the time savings were measured.
