Auditoria.AI Unveils SmartResearch as Finance Teams Race Toward Agentic Automation

Finance isn’t just being automated—it’s being reimagined. Auditoria.AI, the AI-driven automation company for the Office of the CFO, has rolled out a string of major milestones in the first half of 2025, anchored by the launch of SmartResearch, an autonomous finance AI agent designed for FP&A and strategic finance teams.

The debut comes on the heels of $38 million in Series B funding, rapid international expansion, and billions in processed transactions—underscoring how quickly agentic AI is moving from experiment to everyday workflow in enterprise finance.

SmartResearch: Finance’s “Always-On Analyst”

Launched at the Gartner CFO Summit and heading to Workday Rising 2025, SmartResearch promises to give finance teams an always-available Level 1 and Level 2 analyst—minus the headcount.

By blending ERP, EPM, and FP&A data with insights from commercial financial data providers, SmartResearch lets CFOs and analysts query complex financial scenarios in plain English and receive actionable outputs in seconds.

Early results from pilot users suggest:

  • 60–80% less time spent gathering data
  • 3–5x faster forecasting cycles
  • Up to 50% more early-payment discount capture

CEO Rohit Gupta calls it a shift in how finance teams operate: “With SmartResearch, we’re giving finance teams the ability to move faster and think more strategically, unlocking insights that were previously out of reach.”

Expanding Partnerships: Oracle, Workday, ServiceNow

Behind the product news is a widening partner ecosystem. Auditoria:

  • Expanded support for Oracle Cloud ERP and migrated workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to boost AI inference speed and cost-efficiency.
  • Was named a founding partner in Workday’s AI Agent Partner Network, earning recognition as an Agentic System of Record (ASOR).
  • Extended its reach with a ServiceNow integration, tightening links between finance operations and enterprise workflows.

Together, these moves show that agentic finance isn’t about bolting AI onto old systems—it’s about embedding intelligence into the platforms finance already lives in.

New Footprint: UK Data Center

To meet rising European demand, Auditoria is standing up a new data center in London, hosted on AWS infrastructure. The move ensures compliance with local data residency rules and expands capacity beyond its U.S. and Canadian bases. General availability is slated for Q3 2025.

Analyst Recognition: DataTech50, Gartner Hype Cycle, Constellation ShortList

Industry watchers are taking note. In 2025 alone, Auditoria:

  • Earned a spot on FinTech Global’s DataTech50, highlighting its work automating structured and unstructured finance data.
  • Appeared in two categories of the Gartner Hype Cycle for AI in Finance: Agentic AI for Finance and AI-Ready Data for Finance, both tagged as transformational over the next decade.
  • Landed on the Constellation ShortList™ for AI-Driven Cognitive Applications for the sixth consecutive year.

That six-year streak underscores something rare in enterprise AI: sustained execution, not just hype.

Why It Matters

Auditoria is hardly alone in the AI-for-finance race—rivals like Workiva, BlackLine, and Planful are also weaving intelligence into FP&A. But by positioning itself as an “agentic layer” for finance, Auditoria is making a bigger bet: that tomorrow’s CFO teams will rely as much on digital agents as they do on human analysts.

With SmartResearch, Oracle and Workday integrations, and a global expansion push, the company is effectively trying to standardize what “autonomous finance” looks like. And based on analyst validation, Wall Street and Silicon Valley alike are buying in.

Or, as Gupta puts it: “We’re not just adding AI to finance—we’re rethinking what finance can be when intelligence is embedded at the core.”
