Your Company Is Bleeding Money Right Now. AI Can See Exactly Where | Terrence McCrossan

Guest: Terrence McCrossan, CEO of Oversight | 2026 BIG Innovation Award WinnerMost CFOs think they know where the money is going. They don't. Terrence McCrossan runs Oversight — the AI platform that monitors 100% of corporate transactions in near real-time and surfaces the fraud, errors, and waste that manual audits have been missing for years. From AI-generated fake receipts to $500K fat-finger payments no one noticed, the things hiding inside your financial systems will surprise you.Chapters[00:01] Introductions[00:39] What Oversight Does — Real-time AI monitoring across card spend, T&E, accounts payable, and procurement. Every transaction. Not a sample.[01:52] Why Traditional Audits Fail — Manual, infrequent, superficial. Terrence explains why throwing more people at the problem actually makes it worse.[04:59] Pattern Recognition Is the Machine's Superpower — Humans can't correlate across thousands of transactions. Machines do nothing but.[06:53] The Three Buckets of Financial Risk — Egregious fraud, honest errors (like a $50K invoice becoming a $500K payment), and everyday waste. Plus: AI-generated fake receipts are now a real problem.[08:39] The First 90 Days — Whether companies come to Oversight proactively or after a regulatory scare, the first look at their own data tends to reveal seven-figure exposure nobody knew was there.[11:02] When Weird Spend Is Actually an Opportunity — Not every flag is bad. Sometimes it's a signal to renegotiate vendor rates or fix supply chain gaps.[13:06] Human-in-the-Loop vs. Auto-Resolution — How much should the machine decide alone? Terrence walks through Oversight's agentic AI strategy and where human judgment still belongs.[14:30] Flipping the 80/20 Problem — Right now 80% of finance labor goes to gathering information. Oversight is built to reverse that — so teams spend time on strategy, not spreadsheets.[16:58] Where AI Goes Next in Finance — Analysis is mature. Process automation is the next wave. Terrence explains why agentic AI is where the real efficiency gains finally show up.[18:34] One Fix Every CFO Should Make Today — Get curious about the technology, not just the outcomes. The buyers winning now understand what the AI is doing well enough to build their people and processes around it.[22:52] Nobody Wants Alerts. They Want Outcomes. — The sharpest moment in the episode. How Oversight is built around action plans and measurable results — not another list of exceptions to ignore.About Oversight: AI-powered spend intelligence for large enterprises. oversight.comThe Winners' Circle is hosted by Russ Fordyce, founder of Business Intelligence Group.
