Mike Dion, founder of F9 Finance
Hi, I’m Mike

Written by someone who’s actually done the work.

I’ve spent over a decade in finance, from global enterprise FP&A teams to early-stage companies figuring it out as they went. Along the way, I’ve helped finance teams reclaim over 150,000 hours through automation and AI — not by working harder, but by building smarter systems.

F9 Finance is where I share what actually works: the AI tools, the automation workflows, the prompts and processes I’ve tested myself, so you don’t have to wonder if they’ll hold up in the real world.
