It’s an incredible feeling when you have team alignment. Finance teams have often been seen as the "gatekeepers". Not because they want to be, but because of the tools they’ve had at their disposal. Even today, they carry the crucial responsibilities of managing financial data, ensuring compliance, and protecting the organization’s financial health. However, the lack of collaborative tools has traditionally forced finance into a gatekeeping role, controlling access to critical financial information. But the landscape is quickly evolving. We're starting to see more and more finance teams moving beyond the gatekeeping role to become enablers of innovation and collaboration across their organizations. Runway is helping drive this shift, empowering everyone—regardless of their financial expertise—to meaningfully engage with and understand their business. One of my favorite examples is Andrew Maher at Superhuman, who uses Runway to democratize finance and drive ownership among his cross-functional leaders. By providing real-time insights and accessible financial data, Andrew empowers each leader to take control of their respective business areas, leading to a more aligned, efficient, and proactive team.
