In this episode of FP&A Unlocked, host Paul Barnhurst sits down with Brock Beyer and Natalia Kudinova to explore where vibe coding belongs in finance, where it creates unnecessary risk, and how finance teams can experiment without compromising accuracy.
Excel isn’t obsolete just because AI arrived.

The real question is, what should you actually build?
A dashboard? Absolutely. A flash report or internal workflow? Great use case.
An ERP handling sensitive financial data? That’s a completely different risk profile.
Finance doesn’t get to trade accuracy for novelty.
The higher the stakes, the stronger your controls, governance, and reliability need to be.
