I built an app for CFOs and launched it (vibe coding works)
A no-code guide for finance to build apps with AI.
Most CFOs think AI is something they'll adopt eventually.
But while they wait, I built an entire AI-driven financial reporting app without hiring a single engineer.
Imagine loading your spreadsheet, instantly spotting critical variances, and generating AI-driven narratives ready for review and approval, all in minutes.
finstory.ai is not just a side project.
It's a working product that transforms Excel chaos into clear financial storytelling.
I built this in weeks, not months, using just GPT-4.5, Cursor, and curiosity.
No lengthy meetings.
No development team.
Just AI-powered vibe coding.
CFOs and FP&A teams have a rare, short-lived window of opportunity.
You can become indispensable by turning your ideas into reality before anyone else even realizes what's possible.
This no-code guide breaks down exactly how I did it into 4 simple phases:
Ideation
Architecture
Building
Turning Concept into a story
This is your chance to stop watching from the sidelines and start leading the AI revolution in finance.
Read on.
Phase 1: Ideation
Use AI to define the real pain
The first mistake finance people make is they think like a builder.
Nope, don’t think like a builder. Instead, think like a strategist.
Don’t ask, what can I build with AI?
Ask, what recurring pain in my team could be automated in 3–6 months using our existing data?
