AI Finance Architect

"I build finance systems for companies that have outgrown Excel but aren't ready for enterprise ERPs."

Chartered Accountant Founder, RuleBird

The Story

I spent 16 years as a Chartered Accountant hearing the same frustration: "Excel is breaking. Enterprise ERP costs ₹50L-1Cr and takes 18 months. We're stuck."

That gap—between chaos and overkill—is where I work now.

I started at PwC doing statutory audits. Then ran my own practice for 13 years, implementing ERPs and building custom finance solutions for mid-market companies.

In 2025, I founded RuleBird to solve this problem at scale: AI-powered custom finance systems, built in weeks instead of months, at a fraction of enterprise costs.

What I Believe

  • Enterprise software is too rigid for growing companies
  • Excel is too fragile for scale
  • The best solution is custom-built, not off-the-shelf
  • AI should accelerate builds, not replace thinking
  • A CA who understands architecture is rare—and valuable
