Oracle NetSuite, a leading cloud ERP provider, has announced the availability of NetSuite QuickStart, a free AI-first financial platform built for early-stage technology startups.
QuickStart enables founders to establish a strong financial foundation within minutes. Embedded AI and teams of AI agents help founders build their business by automating accounting, banking, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and subscription management and by proactively surfacing key insights like software industry metrics.
Built to grow with startups, QuickStart works with the AI tools founders already use and provides a natural path to NetSuite as their businesses scale.
“As a technology founder, I know from experience that building a company shouldn’t mean becoming a finance expert,” said Evan Goldberg, founder and executive vice president, Oracle NetSuite. “QuickStart is designed to handle more of the routine financial work, surface what actually needs a founder’s judgment, and provide a financial foundation that can grow with the business, making NetSuite the first and last business system they will ever need.”
QuickStart uses AI to handle more of the routine financial work so founders can spend more time building their businesses. With Ask Oracle built into the platform, founders can use a conversational AI assistant to ask questions, analyze business data, surface insights, and take action using trusted information. Through Model Context Protocol (MCP), founders can engage with trusted data in QuickStart via the AI tools they already use, including Claude and ChatGPT. Key capabilities include:
- AI-first financial management: Helps founders establish a strong financial foundation and leverage AI to manage day-to-day finances, including accounting, banking, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other essential financial workflows.
- AI-powered insights and automation: Helps founders spend less time on routine accounting by providing relevant financial insights and autonomous capabilities to import, match, categorize, and reconcile bank transactions from connected bank and credit card accounts.
- Industry-specific financial capabilities: Helps founders monitor business performance and make informed decisions with built-in SaaS and startup financial metrics, including monthly recurring revenue (MRR), burn rate, and runway, as well as capabilities to manage subscriptions and online payments, generate reports, and integrate with tools commonly used across the technology startup ecosystem.
- AI tool integration: Helps founders stay informed and act on financial decisions within the AI tools they already use, including ChatGPT and Claude, by providing access to trusted QuickStart financial data and capabilities via MCP.
- Fast, self-service setup: Helps founders avoid a traditional implementation process and establish financial operations quickly with an AI-powered self-service setup. Users can connect a bank account, create their first invoice, and begin viewing financials in less than 10 minutes, and tailor the system to their business.
- Enterprise-grade foundation: Helps founders automate financial work and support business growth with Oracle’s enterprise-grade database, cloud infrastructure, and embedded AI.
As startups grow, QuickStart provides a seamless and automated path to NetSuite, enabling them to expand operations and meet more sophisticated financial needs without disruption or starting over.
“The next generation of founders increasingly expects AI to automate routine financial and administrative work so teams can stay focused on building the business,” said Charles Brennan, principal analyst, Nucleus Research. “For technology startups, the value of this approach is less about adding more software and more about establishing financial discipline early, reducing manual work, and having an ERP environment that can support greater operational complexity as the business scales.”
NetSuite QuickStart is available for free to eligible early-stage technology startups in the United States, subject to the QuickStart Terms of Use and Service*. See netsuite.com/quickstart for details.
