About

An operator's CFO.

I'm Andrew Playford. I've spent my career as the finance guy inside product brands — forecasting cash, fixing margin, and making sure founders see problems while they're still cheap to fix.

These videos are the same lens I use with clients, pointed at the problems every ecommerce brand runs into sooner or later.

Most of my week goes into building Pursor, an AI financial analyst for founders. I take on a small number of fractional CFO engagements alongside it.
