Isaac Heller spent years buried in spreadsheets, parsing contracts, and navigating the pressure of high-stakes audits at pre-IPO and equity-backed companies. The mental fatigue was real—and all too common. Seventy-four percent of accountants report burnout, and they’re 36% more likely to feel job stress compared to employees in other industries.
When early AI models started gaining traction, Heller and other partners saw an opportunity to rethink the profession entirely. Their question: What if technology could relieve some of the pressures finance professionals face and provide the accuracy and transparency that CFOs, controllers, and auditors require?
That insight became the foundation of Trullion, an AI-powered accounting platform built to modernize how companies handle audits, compliance, and financial reporting.
One Platform, Infinite Use Cases
From Raw Data to Audit-Ready
Trullion, a Comcast NBCUniversal LIFT Labs portfolio company, helps transform raw financial data into audit-ready outputs, with a core focus on lease accounting, revenue recognition, and audit workflows. Powered by AI, including natural language processing and prompt-based querying, Trullion enables teams to extract, validate, and analyze data with greater speed and improved accuracy.
Finance professionals can ask questions like “What are the penalties in this lease?” or “Is this liability abnormally high for this industry?” and receive structured insights designed to be auditable.
The platform’s two-way engine supports full transparency: helping controllers generate compliant journal entries, while giving auditors the ability to trace those entries back to their source. As Trullion continues to evolve, its expanding AI capabilities will further streamline compliance and redefine how finance and audit teams work with critical data.
Trullion in Action: Faster Audits, Clearer Reports
Trullion is already transforming how accounting teams work:
- A global travel company cut lease accounting time from hours to minutes by replacing clunky, error-prone spreadsheets with real-time visibility in Trullion.
- An auditing firm reduced audit time by 40% while improving accuracy and compliance across client portfolios.
Trullion’s rapid growth, driven by over 3,500 corporate clients, up to 70% average cost savings for clients, and a $15 million Series B raise in 2023, highlights the rising demand for smarter accounting solutions.
With more than 3,500 corporate customers, clients reporting an average of 70% cost savings, and a $15 million venture capital raise in 2023, Trullion’s growth reflects a clear demand for smarter accounting tools.
AI That Serves the Profession (and Economy)
Trullion’s mission is not only to streamline accounting but also to strengthen the financial infrastructure that underpins the global economy. When accounting is flawed, the ripple effects can be significant. At a time when the profession faces a growing talent crisis — 83% of financial leaders in 2024 reported shortages, up from 70% just two years earlier — Trullion offers a timely solution. With updated tools and AI-enabled workflows, the company is helping to attract and retain the next generation of accounting professionals while ensuring greater accuracy and resilience for the future.
At the same time, Trullion is doubling down on enterprise-grade security. Each client operates in a secure, dedicated environment, ensuring that sensitive data stays private and is never used to train shared models. That architecture lets enterprise clients benefit from best-in-class AI while maintaining full control.
Looking forward, Trullion is investing in interactive interfaces—the kind that mirror how professionals already use AI in their daily workflows. The goal is to make complex financial queries feel as intuitive as asking a colleague, while delivering transparent, source-linked answers in real time.
For corporate accounting teams, Trullion removes the friction from tasks like lease accounting, asset tracking, and audit preparation. For external auditors, it shortens review cycles and strengthens documentation trails. In both cases, Trullion complements human expertise with a system designed for transparency and scale.
But Heller is quick to clarify: Trullion doesn’t want to replace accounting professionals.
“We’re not here to replace the Big Four or corporate accountants,” he explained. “We want to be the toolbox they’ve been waiting for.”
