AI doesn’t fix bad data.

If your underlying financial processes are broken, modern automation tools will simply process disorganized information faster. True data readiness requires a solid, clean accounting foundation from day one.

At this year’s M&A West conference in Napa, Scrubbed took the stage to address this exact reality. Our Managing Principal, Darwin Pangilinan, moderated an expert panel featuring top CEOs and investors who shared their tactical lessons and real-world battle scars.

We had a blast catching up with so many familiar faces during Day 2 at Scaling New Heights yesterday! Once the exhibit hall opened, the room was completely packed.

Between the sessions, the big takeaway from everyone stopping by the booth was the balance between AI and outsourcing. The consensus? It's really about knowing when to leverage AI tools and when to rely on an outsourcing partner to actually scale your firm.

Shoutout to the radical CPA herself, Jody Padar, for dropping by our booth to hang out with the team and grab a selfie!

A few snaps from yesterday's action below. Ready for another great day today!

Are you steering your fast-growing e-commerce business using bank statements because you can’t trust your own accounting system?

When transaction volume explodes across multiple payment gateways, it is incredibly easy for e-commerce companies to scale far faster than their internal accounting infrastructure. When the books fall behind, many leadership teams resort to pulling cash balances straight from the bank, completely bypassing their financial software. This creates an invisible financial blind spot where deposits in transit, sales refunds, and double-bookings quietly skew your reality, making accurate forecasting and capital deployment impossible.

The solution requires a dual-track forensic approach. Read more: https://na2.hubs.ly/H065YjN0

Why do internal finance teams often look at incoming fractional talent with fear instead of relief?

When leadership brings in an outside firm, internal staff often worry that their jobs are being outsourced or that their legacy workflows are under attack. The reality is that internal teams are rarely failing due to capability; they are simply drowning because they haven't been properly resourced to handle rapid growth or sudden operational friction.

Is the pressure to deliver overnight AI transformation setting your tech leaders up for a trap?

With over 76% of global CEOs appointing a Chief AI Officer this year, the race to implement artificial intelligence is officially on. However, a major bottleneck is forming as organizations demand sweeping, instant business transformation while treating the CAIO role as an isolated, technical IT function.

Real process transformation cannot be achieved from inside a silo. Read how our Chief AI Officer, Kendrick Geluz Kho, and other tech leaders are navigating these expectations in the full IT Brew feature: https://na2.hubs.ly/H06264j0
