02 - Our Story
Built by a CFO who decided to change the rules
Founded by Anna Kytainyk - CFO and strategic advisor at the intersection of finance, technology, and artificial intelligence.
Clarity changes everything. That's why I built Whales Finance: to make finance simple, transparent, and actionable for ambitious businesses.
The path started in traditional corporate finance - large IT companies, reporting systems built from scratch, quarters closed in spreadsheets. At some point the realization hit: finance can work completely differently.
When AI tools started emerging, Anna was one of the first CFOs to embrace them - not out of fear, but because she saw the real opportunity to give CEOs the information they needed, when they needed it.
Anna brings 12+ years of financial leadership - from 10-person startups to IT firms with 1000+ employees. Whales Finance was born in 2026, channeling all of that experience into focused fractional CFO engagements.
Our clients don't just get reports. They get clarity, speed, and a finance function that scales with the business.
