Ep2: Auditors, Meet Your New AI Teammate
In this episode, Kieran Taylor, co-founder of Midship.ai, walks us through how his YC-backed startup is building AI tools tailored for financial auditors. He breaks down exactly how the product works — from automating test-of-detail procedures to preparing first-draft workpapers — and highlights key features like Excel integration, configurability, and audit trail visibility. We discuss the $200B+ audit market ripe for disruption, how Midship stacks up against legacy tools, and the long-term vision of moving from audit sampling to continuous transaction monitoring. Kieran also shares the backgrounds of his technical co-founders, the journey which led to start Midship, and what’s next for the team.
