Artie Minson, a former executive at Time Warner Cable and WeWork, has been named CEO of AI accounting platform Trullion, the New York City-based company announced on Monday.
Minson was an early investor in Trullion and has been a senior advisor and board observer for more than five years.
In connection with Minson’s appointment, Isaac Heller will move from CEO of Trullion to the role of president, focusing on new product development and strategic partnerships across the accounting, audit, and technology ecosystems. Heller will remain chair of the company’s board of directors.
In his role as CEO, Minson will oversee core business functions, including finance, legal, human resources, sales, marketing, communications, and customer success.
Since its founding in 2019, Trullion has evolved into a portfolio of AI-driven accounting products, serving more than 3,000 companies around the world, including Fortune 500 companies and many top accounting firms. The company has tripled the number of audit firm clients using its platform over the past year, according to a media release.
“I’ve seen firsthand how Trullion is accelerating operationally and financially, and I’m honored to be CEO for this exciting next phase of growth,” Minson said in a statement. “As Trullion comes off its best quarterly performance in its history, I am incredibly excited to be partnering with Isaac as we double down on transforming the accounting and audit industry. Trullion’s industry-focused AI solutions will radically improve how finance, accounting, and auditing professionals do their jobs, and I couldn’t be any more excited about Trullion’s path forward.”
“This is an incredibly exciting time for Trullion,” Heller added. “In the last quarter, we achieved record revenue growth, onboarded large global enterprises, and now have added Artie to our leadership team. I’m thrilled to formally partner with Artie, with whom I have worked closely as an advisor to Trullion these past five years. This new leadership structure will allow us to accelerate the development of our product suite, expand our customer base, and grow our global footprint as we deliver innovative solutions to our rapidly growing client base.”
Minson has held several noteworthy leadership roles throughout his career, including serving as president and co-CEO at WeWork, where during his tenure the company scaled from approximately $100 million in annual revenue to more than $3 billion in annual revenue with operations in over 30 countries; CFO at Time Warner Cable, the country’s second largest cable operator at the time, where he helped negotiate the company’s sale to Charter Communications; and CFO and chief operating officer at AOL, where the company returned to revenue and EBITDA growth during his tenure.
Most recently, Minson was president and CEO of LeafLink, a marketplace and fintech company that connects cannabis brands and retailers across 30 U.S. markets. During his tenure at LeafLink, the company tripled its revenue and was named one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies in America.
Minson began his career at Big Four accounting firm EY, where he earned his CPA. He holds an undergraduate degree in accounting from Georgetown University and an MBA with a concentration in finance from Columbia Business School.
Given his experience as an auditor, accountant, and a CFO, as well as an operator at scaled technology organizations, Minson understands the pain points facing today’s finance and accounting professionals, Trullion said.
“The powerful combination of Artie’s CFO background and operational expertise and Isaac’s product development capabilities strengthens the company’s position as the leader in AI accounting,” said Michael Eisenberg, co-founder and general partner of Aleph and a member of Trullion’s board of directors.
