How DualEntry's next-day migration works

In this episode of Future Finance, hosts Paul Barnhurst and Glenn Hopper talk with Santiago Nestares, co-founder and CEO of DualEntry, about the reinvention of ERP systems through AI-native design. After scaling a global e-commerce business to over $100 million in revenue, Santiago experienced the frustrations of legacy finance systems firsthand. That pain sparked the vision for DualEntry: an ERP platform built from the ground up for the AI era.

Santiago Nestares is the CEO and co-founder of DualEntry, an AI-native ERP platform. Before DualEntry, he co-founded Benitago, a leading Amazon brand aggregator. His experience running a multi-entity, high-growth business exposed the inefficiencies in traditional finance systems, inspiring him to build a next-gen ERP solution from scratch.

In this episode, you will discover:

• Why legacy ERP systems are fundamentally broken, and how AI changes the game
• How DualEntry enables 24-hour ERP data migration
• The role of AI in journal entries, reporting, and reconciliation
• How auditors are embracing automation and AI for compliance and accuracy
• Why ERP systems must evolve beyond just being "AI-enabled" to truly AI-native

Santiago Nestares joins Paul and Glenn to reveal how DualEntry is transforming ERP for the AI era. From eliminating painful migrations to building systems finance teams actually enjoy using, Santiago makes it clear: the future of ERP is AI-native, fast, and built with users in mind. ERP doesn’t have to be a burden. With the right tools, it can become a strategic advantage.
