Company Description

CFOup is a financial decision‑support software designed for owners of small and medium‑sized businesses, turning existing company data—such as bank transactions, accounts receivable and payable, sales, and accountant reports—into clear, actionable insights. Rather than replacing accounting systems or ERPs, CFOup acts as a decision layer that helps business owners understand cash position, profitability by client, and how much they can safely withdraw from the business. The platform offers a 13-week cash flow view, scenario analysis before decisions, and financial and accounting analysis in accessible, owner‑friendly language. Its chat features respond using real company data, with every figure traceable to a verified source. Prospective users can see a live demonstration with real data at cfoup.ai.
