Of all the ways I imagined AI might change my career, “forgetting I already did the assignment” was not on the list.

I had already sent my client a finished draft of an article on hiring best practices in South America, when I happened to reread the brief. A familiar phrase made me realize I had read it before. Then there was the statistic I was pretty sure I had already fact-checked. I clicked back through my files, and there it was: same client, same topic, same deliverable, dated four weeks earlier. It was completed, filed, and forgotten so completely that when a clerical error sent the same brief to my inbox again, I sat down and did the whole thing over.

A virtual summit for the new, new CFO

The era of the builder CFO is here. They are vibe coding deal desks, wrangling MCPs to deliver never-before-seen automations, setting up agent swarms to triage invoices, and imagining other inventive ways to methodically deploy agentic intelligence across finance workflows.

Traceable by Chargebee is a virtual event dedicated to documenting this shift. Join CFOs, controllers, finance engineers, and founders as they share field notes on the rise of the AI-native finance org. Featuring leaders from Public.com, Campfire, Sphere, Every, and other frontier teams.
