In part two of their conversation on Episode 259 of The Unique CPA, Randy and Cosmin Nicolaescu, co-founder of Accrual, get into the harder questions: What happens to pricing when a hundred-hour return takes ten? What do junior accountants actually need to learn if AI handles the data entry? Which firms are quietly positioning themselves to win the next decade, while others stall on change management? Cosmin makes a pragmatic case that early adopters will capture a real arbitrage window before the market reprices, and that the firms who use that window to build advisory capacity rather than just cut costs are the ones who come out ahead. The conversation covers review workflows, glass-box versus black-box AI why organic growth in accounting has been so hard to achieve, and what might finally change that.
