\nFormer Slack CFO Allen Shim joins as President and CFO as Multiplier expands its network of specialized accounting and professional-services firms<\/i><\/p><\/a><\/a>

SINGAPORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Multiplier, a technology company that acquires premium professional-services firms and builds AI tools around how those firms work, today announced a $35 million Series B led by The General Partnership, with participation from Ribbit Capital and Lightspeed Venture Partners.<\/p>

\nThe company also announced that Allen Shim, the former Chief Financial Officer of Slack, has joined Multiplier as President and CFO. Shim helped take Slack public and remained with the company through its acquisition by Salesforce. At Multiplier, he will oversee finance, operations, partnerships, people, and help build out the company\u2019s San Francisco office.<\/p>

\nMultiplier acquires established professional-services firms with deep expertise in valuable niches and long-standing client relationships. The firms retain their names, leadership, and operating independence, while the professionals responsible for those client relationships share in the value they help create. Multiplier provides what no boutique firm can build alone: long-term capital, shared infrastructure and access to a global network. Its team of more than 30 technologists, recruited from leading software companies, works directly inside the firms to build AI tools around their daily operations.<\/p>

\nMultiplier is structured as a permanent holding company rather than a traditional short-term acquisition vehicle. The company focuses on growing firms whose founders want to continue leading their businesses while gaining access to capital, technology, recruiting, operational support, and a broader network of expertise. Unlike companies that sell software to outside firms, Multiplier works directly with the people inside its firms to identify where AI can reduce manual work, expand capacity, and improve client service. Because Multiplier owns the firms where the technology is deployed, its teams have direct access to the workflows, data, professionals, and institutional trust required to build and implement tools around how the work is actually done. This approach addresses many of the adoption barriers that have historically limited software use in professional services.<\/p>

\n\u201cAn AI\u2019s answer is worth zero until a professional puts their name on it,\u201d said Noah Pepper, founder and CEO of Multiplier. \"We're not trying to remove experts from the work. We're giving firms AI muscle while keeping their human heart, providing them with better tools, more time for judgment, and the capacity to serve more clients without lowering the bar on quality or trust.\"<\/p>

\nProfessional-services firms have historically been difficult to scale because their growth depends on the time and availability of experienced practitioners. Many also operate with fragmented information spread across documents, financial statements and email. Recent advances in AI make it possible to automate more of that preparatory and administrative work while keeping professionals responsible for the final advice and client relationship. Multiplier\u2019s aim is to expand the number of clients those professionals can serve, rather than reduce the number of professionals required to serve an existing client base.<\/p>

\n\u201cAccounting is a large, durable market that has long been constrained by expert capacity,\u201d said Anthony Kline, Partner at The General Partnership. \u201cMultiplier is not trying to replace the professionals clients trust. It is building technology into the firms themselves so those professionals can serve more clients, respond faster and spend more time on work that requires judgment. Noah has the operating experience and long-term approach needed to build this model at scale.\u201d<\/p>

\nMultiplier has acquired eight firms to date, including five in the past year, and has four additional firms under signed term sheets. Its network currently serves clients across more than 10 countries. Founders and leadership teams remain with their firms following an acquisition, and firms within the network have begun referring clients and opportunities to one another.<\/p>

\nThe new funding will be used to acquire additional firms and expand Multiplier\u2019s technology and operating teams.<\/p>
