In 2022, our co-founders were running finance teams at fast-growing companies. Between them, they had closed books across 14 countries, managed 6 ERP migrations, and sat through more than 30 external audits.
Every month, the same problems. Spreadsheets that broke. Reconciliations that dragged. Auditors who arrived to find incomplete PBC lists. Board packs that went out on day 18 instead of day 5.
The tools that existed were either built for enterprise (expensive, complex, 18-month implementations) or too simple to handle real close complexity. There was nothing in the middle.
So we built it. Lunari is the controller's operating system — purpose-built for the teams that are too sophisticated for spreadsheets and too lean for SAP.
"To make the month-end close a competitive advantage — not a liability — for every finance team in the world."
A fast close that's wrong is worse than a slow close that's right. We build tools that make accuracy the default, not a trade-off.
Every journal entry, every reconciliation, every AI suggestion — fully auditable. No black boxes in financial close.
We don't sell to controllers. We build with them. Every feature starts with a real problem from a real finance team.
AI handles the pattern work. Humans handle the judgment calls. We never blur that line.
