Overview
Eagl builds AI agents that handle the repetitive, time-sensitive tasks involved in closing the financial books at month end: reconciliations, journal entries, variance checks, and reporting preparation. Finance teams at mid-market companies typically spend significant time on these processes, and automation can compress cycle times materially.
The EUR 825K round, closed in September 2025, includes angel investment from Roeland Delrue of Aikido Security and Wouter Van Respaille of Henchman, two founders with direct experience building and scaling Belgian B2B SaaS companies.

In the news
- 10 teams. 1 room. 1 day to ship something real. After the success of our first hackathon in Ghent, we’re setting up shop in Amsterdam. On Thursday 15 October, together with our partners at Payhawk, we’re hosting the second edition of the AI Finance Hackathon. The concept stays the same. Every team walks in with one real problem from their own finance operation, and the data that comes with it. They build all day, side by side with AI experts. At 5 PM, they demo whatever works. One day of building tells you more about what AI can
- The natural next step for in-house finance teams. Eagl.
- A few weeks ago, we hosted our first AI Finance Hackathon and invited 10 companies. They spent the day building AI for their own work: remittance matching, chasing late payments, treasury forecasting, intercompany reconciliation, flux analysis and more. Watch how the day went. 👇 Thank you to the teams in the room: 9altitudes, Aikido Security, Copus, Guardsquare, House of HR, In The Pocket, Lighthouse, Pluxee and Telenet group
- Upvest is a leading investment infrastructure provider in Europe, powering some of the largest banks and wealth platforms with their API-first trading technology. As they scaled, their finance team had to manage high transaction volumes and rigorous compliance requirements across multiple entities, getting everything cleanly and accurately into NetSuite. To scale efficiently, the underlying manual close tasks, like manually matching transactions, tracking manual VAT risks, and managing accruals, had to be run autonomously.
- We are super excited to officially announce our partnership with Payhawk! 🚀 Corporate spend management and the month-end close belong in the same workflow. Today, we’re making that a reality. For too long, multi-entity finance teams have dealt with the exact same friction: spend happens in one system, and the close is managed in another. That gap creates a natural lag at the end of the month. Together, Eagl and Payhawk are completely eliminating that gap.
- Accruals are one of the hardest things to automate in accounting. We just cracked it. Eagl now runs the full accrual lifecycle automatically: detect the month an expected invoice never posted, book the accrual, write it to your ERP, and reverse it on its own when the invoice arrives. Plus a full cutoff analysis every close. Rolling out now.
- Most finance teams catch accounting errors by hunting for outliers in a reporting tool. Which means you only catch the ones big enough to stand out. Eagl works differently. Our financial controlling agent reviews every journal entry and document against every check your finance team typically runs. No sampling. It flags what needs your attention, explains why, and proposes the corrective action. Controlling finally becomes proactive.
