Numos: Transparent AI for Finance Teams

Parijat Sarkar (ex-Zenefits SVP) + Mitul Tiwari (ex-LinkedIn/ServiceNow PhD) just raised $4.25M seed from General Catalyst.

The play: Most AI tools hide how they work. Numos shows its reasoning—audit trails, variance analysis, reconciliations—all transparent.

Traction first:
- Shipped with Udemy, Dandy before fundraising
- 80% faster FP&A cycles
- 50% faster financial close

Founder lesson: Deep domain expertise + measurable outcomes + enterprise validation = investor conviction.
