Eagl has raised €825,000 in funding to accelerate the development of its AI-native Financial Agentic Platform, strengthen AI and engineering teams, and scale operations across Europe. The platform integrates with ERP and accounting systems, automating accounting and controlling workflows, continuously monitoring data quality, and resolving anomalies within a business context. By ensuring accurate and structured financial data, the solution reduces errors, speeds up month-end closes, and shortens audit cycles, transforming one of the most time-consuming processes for in-house finance teams into a streamlined, proactive function.

The funding round is led by Syndicate One and CNBB Equity Partners (Founder ExactOnline & Yuki), with participation from prominent SaaS founders including Matthias Geeroms (Lighthouse), Joris Van Der Gucht (Silverfin, Ravical), Jeroen De Wit (Teamleader), Lorenz Bogaert (Rydoo, StarApps), Louis Jonckheere (Showpad), Roeland Delrue (Aikido Security), and Jorn Vanysacker, Gilles Mattelin, and Wouter Van Respaille (Henchman).

“Most finance teams are stretched thin, fixing problems instead of adding real value,” said Samuel Van Innis, co-founder and CEO of Eagl. “With Eagl, we turn days of manual checking into instant insights, empowering finance leaders to focus on strategic topics while auditors get cleaner books, faster.”

“Beyond automating workflows, we continuously monitor data quality and resolve anomalies in real time,” added Frederik Bakx, co-founder and CFO. “This means finance teams can close faster, scale efficiently, and cut down the time and stress of audits.”

Finance leaders currently spend up to 70% of their time gathering, cleaning, and reconciling data rather than analyzing it. The platform connects directly to a CFO’s stack, ensuring accuracy of financial records and producing reports enriched with business context.

While legacy tools have improved task tracking, they leave finance departments burdened with manual work. Unlike these systems, Eagl is AI-native from inception, embedding context and intelligence into every accounting and controlling workflow.

“Eagl is tackling one of the most frustrating bottlenecks in finance with technology that actually understands business context,” said Matthias Geeroms, founder and CFO of Belgian unicorn Lighthouse. “That’s why many of us in the SaaS ecosystem believe this platform will fundamentally change how finance teams operate.”

Eagl was founded in April 2025 by Samuel Van Innis, Benoit Baervoets, Brecht Carnewal, and Frederik Bakx, experienced operators from Henchman, Rydoo, and Lighthouse. Combining product, technology, and finance expertise, the founding team is building toward a long-term vision where accounting and controlling converge into a unified, intelligent system inside the CFO’s organization.
