How SeatGeek ended the monthly rebuild of its close in weeks

Your close doesn't have to be rebuilt every month. Kyle Levy, SeatGeek's Assistant Controller, and Ledge CEO Tal Kirschenbaum show how his team built its own Accounting Agents in four hour sprints, had them running in the monthly close within weeks, and kept every control.

What you'll hear

What your team takes home

1

Where the month was going.

Transaction-level revenue data reshaped in spreadsheets, a disjointed accrual process, 300 balance sheet accounts reconciled every quarter end, 15 to 20 people on a six day soft close.

2

What the team stopped doing by hand.

Bank reconciliations that open matched with the exceptions flagged, a chargeback accrual that arrives as a prepared working paper, recurring journal entries drafted from source data, flux explained per account.

3

How accountants built the agents themselves.

Four hour agent sprints with a Ledge engineer on standby, each agent taught the team's own logic by the person who owns the task.

4

How every control stayed in place.

Preparer and reviewer sign-offs, entries landing in NetSuite in a pending state, an explicit post action no agent can trigger, and a parallel close that proves every output before it earns its place.

5

What to do first.

Kyle's advice to a team starting the same journey: which task to hand to an agent first, and what to watch for.

"We have these agents doing things instead of people. There's work papers that are produced, and people are reviewing those work papers, approving them, pushing them over to the ERP. I'm comfortable with that from a controls perspective."
