// EPISODE SUMMARY
Catherine Neuman built SpendPilot — the ambient finance layer designed to stop reactive chaos and give owners real-time visibility into spend, risk, and performance before it hits the P&L. With experience at Apple, Novo, and Butter Payments, she explains why founders deploying AI tools without real-time spend controls aren't scaling — they're leaking — and how LLM tokenization costs have become a Finance problem, not just an Engineering problem.
