How Bill is Redefining Financial Automation

44 minutes

Richard Corn, Director of Product Management at Bill, joins Doug and Emily to discuss how financial teams can break free from manual processes and embrace true automation. A former CPA turned product leader, Richard shares real-world transformation stories, including how Mark Cuban Companies eliminated their paper AP workflows, and explains why the accounting profession isn't disappearing but evolving toward higher-value advisory work. From unlimited virtual cards to AI-powered insights, Richard reveals what's coming next in the financial automation space and why now is the time for finance teams to stop protecting inefficient processes and start eliminating them entirely.
