About
Total Finance Resolver™
Total Finance Resolver isn’t a typical outsourcing agency or freelance pool.
We deploy plug-and-play FP&A Pods staffed by former Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Big Four consultants — giving you institutional-grade finance support faster and at a fraction of the cost.
Our Pods deliver end-to-end financial planning, strategic insight, and investor-ready reporting, without the overhead of a full in-house team. For VC-backed startups, PE-backed portfolio companies, or any high-growth business scaling fast — we offer the finance infrastructure you need, when you need it.

Leadership
—Founder's Note
I built Total Finance Resolver after watching countless founders lose focus on what truly matters — building product, generating traction, and serving customers — because they were forced to take on financial, strategic, and investor-facing responsibilities they were neither trained for nor meant to navigate.
Early-stage companies don’t have the luxury of hiring senior finance leaders, and traditional investment banks take months, bill hourly, and operate at a pace that simply doesn’t match the urgency of a startup. I saw talented founders burning time, energy, and runway trying to build valuation models, prepare investor narratives, construct data rooms, and interpret financial signals instead of building the actual company.
That’s the gap we decided to close.
We created a model that brings institutional-grade FP&A, Investor Readiness, and Fractional CFO execution to teams that need speed, affordability, and clarity — not bureaucracy.
But the problem wasn’t limited to founders.
On the investor side, we saw VC and PE funds deploying capital into AI companies without a true understanding of what’s behind the demo. Many ‘AI startups’ were simply wrappers around GPT — with no proprietary architecture, no defensibility, and no engineering depth. Investors were writing multimillion-dollar cheques based on surface-level interactions.
So we built a technical due diligence framework designed for the new era — reviewing architecture, pipelines, codebases, model dependencies, scalability, and real IP, line by line. We operate as the third-party investigator who tells a fund whether the technology is truly differentiated or just packaged well.
Total Finance Resolver™ was built to protect founders from financial chaos and protect investors from technological false promises.
Our philosophy is simple: founders should build, investors should deploy confidently, and we handle the intelligence that enables both to move forward with precision.
