How this Technocrat is Automating Accounting's Messiest Problems with AI at Mesh

Engineering and systems infrastructure expert Nandini Ramakrishnan set out to solve as co-founder and CTO of Mesh, a fintech platform using AI to automate error-prone accounting workflows. Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. Many financial institutions still rely on manual, disconnected workflows for core accounting tasks, often using mismatched tools like spreadsheets, third-party software, and legacy systems. This fragmented setup slows teams down, creates oversight gaps, and increases the risk of costly errors, ultimately undermining the accuracy and reliability of financial reporting. This is what financial engineering and systems infrastructure expert Nandini Ramakrishnan set out to solve as co-founder and CTO of Mesh, a fintech platform using AI to automate error-prone accounting workflows. Mesh uses AI agents to connect fragmented tools, monitor workflows for patterns and anomalies, and automate essential tasks like reconciliation, reporting, and discrepancy resolution. By reducing dependency on manual input, Nandini's platform empowers finance teams to minimize errors, reduce repetitive work, and gain real-time visibility into their operations, helping them build a stronger, more accurate accounting foundation. Read on for a closer look at Nandini's early life, foundation in systems thinking, and how Mesh is revolutionizing financial operations with AI. An Early Path to Systems Thinking Born and raised in India, Nandini began experimenting with coding at the age of eight. She credits her grandmother Lalitha, a former teacher with a degree in mathematics, for giving her a strong foundation in logic and structure. "She used to tutor me every day after school," Nandini recalls. "Thanks to her, it always felt ingrained in me to look at everything from an analytical perspective. And having such a powerful female mentor in STEM so early on greatly inspired me to pursue technical fields with confidence." That early curiosity led her to study electrical and computer engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, where she completed both her bachelor's and master's degrees and developed a deep understanding of the technical challenges behind building backend systems that support complex, real-world operations. She began working as a software engineer shortly after graduating, taking roles at Genesys and eBay before joining Carta, a fund administration platform for venture capital and private equity firms. She quickly rose from engineer to technical lead, playing a key role in building the company's infrastructure for fund setup, audits, and internal tools, all of which helped drive Carta's growth from $20 million to $100 million in annual recurring revenue. Nandini's experience at Carta gave her a first-hand understanding of how to design financial systems that are both scalable and dependable, knowledge that would prove essential in the next stage of her career. How Mesh Uses AI To Eliminate Accounting Errors In late 2024, Nandini co-founded Mesh, a platform built to automate the accounting tasks that many firms still handle manually. Despite the advent of modern software tools, many core workflows like transaction reconciliation, financial reporting, and document management often require teams to copy data between systems, verify records by hand, and track down information across emails, spreadsheets, and third-party platforms. These fragmented processes aren't only time-consuming but also increase the risk of costly errors. In fact, surveys show 59% of accountants report making financial errors each month, with 18% admitting to daily mistakes. Mesh reduces that friction by acting as an intelligent, automated bookkeeper. Its AI agents integrate with a company's existing systems, learn its specific workflows, and take over repetitive tasks such as transaction matching, discrepancy detection, report generation, and document classification. The platform also offers a unified dashboard with real-time visibility into payments and transactions, as well as a built-in chatbot to handle detailed queries and follow-ups. Nandini's experience at Carta, where audit readiness and system reliability were non-negotiable, was invaluable during the development of Mesh. She built the architecture with robust data validation protocols, clear audit trails, and safeguards to prevent inaccurate AI outputs (also known as "hallucinations"), ensuring that it's transparent, dependable, and ready for businesses of any size. By automating time-consuming, error-prone work, Mesh allows professionals to focus on higher-value tasks like analysis, compliance, and planning, making it especially valuable in high-stakes industries like healthcare, real estate, and investment management, where small accounting errors can carry major consequences. "Accurate, automated accounting should be table stakes for all kinds of businesses, whether they're big or small." Nandini explains. "At Mesh, I get to build AI agents that can safely and reliably take on the kind of gnarly, error-prone work no one wants to do by hand." Nandini's Approach to Leadership Nandini's scope extends well beyond her technical work. Her aim is to build a steady presence as a thoughtful leader in the engineering community, taking a visible, hands-on approach in both team settings and public forums. She first began building this approach at Carta, where she invested deeply in developing early-career engineers by leading cross-functional projects, running weekly design reviews, hosting pair programming sessions, and helping team members grow into leadership roles. Nandini carried that same commitment over to Mesh. She represented the company at Y Combinator's Demo Day, pitching to more than 1,000 investors and securing a spot in the accelerator's Winter 2025 batch, as well as at events like GenAI Collective meetups, Product Hunt showcases, and most recently, an AI privacy panel hosted by Founders Creative. For Nandini, effective leadership is about building and nurturing the systems and cultures that help engineering teams work well together and deliver reliable results; an approach that continues to guide her today. Rewiring Accounting with AI Nandini envisions Mesh becoming much more than just a tool for automating accounting tasks. With AI adoption accelerating, she sees it as a blueprint for how the technology can be thoughtfully integrated into critical business operations. "Tasks that weren't automatable just a few years ago now are," she concludes. "We have an opportunity to fundamentally reshape how accounting and finance teams operate and set a new standard for how AI agents can be utilized in compliance-heavy industries." Designed to support everyone from early-stage startups to large enterprises, Mesh has emerged as an efficient solution built for reliability, accuracy, and long-term trust. As more companies look to streamline operations, reduce manual effort, and maintain transparency, entrepreneurs like Nandini Ramakrishnan are driving the shift toward smarter, more reliable finance workflows.

Thai cuisine true to its Bangkok roots

IF you are craving the punchy flavours of Thai cuisine without needing to hop on a plane, there is a place right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. For a limited time, The Mesh at Four Points by Sheraton Kuala Lumpur City Centre is serving Thai food that transports diners straight to the bustling streets of Bangkok. The hotel's chef de cuisine Kamarudin Dali said the dishes in The Mesh x Siam Road were authentically Thai, as two chefs from Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen's Park were invi­ted to teach the team to prepare the dishes from scratch. To start off the buffet, there's an enticing variety of appetisers. The Mesh buffet offers a spread of typically Thai dishes of bold flavours that transport guests straight to the streets of Bangkok. Som Tam Goong (green papaya salad with prawns) is tossed fresh in front of diners, its crunchy texture and balance of sweet, sour, salty and spicy notes instantly awakening the palate. The Larb Kai (spicy minced chicken salad) offers a mix of herbs with a hint of roasted rice crunch, while Yum Som-O (pomelo salad) combines juicy pomelo segments with sea prawn and a spicy chilli paste dressing for a refreshing zing. Pla Neua Yang (slow-cooked beef brisket salad) is richly flavoured with lemongrass, shallot and mint, giving it a fresh and aromatic finish. Tom Yam Goong stands out with its thick, flavourful broth, slightly different from local versions. Kamarudin said the fragrant soup was made with prawn, mushroom, kaffir lime, lemongrass and just the right amount of heat. Authenticity is at the heart of the mains too, he said. 'The Pad Krapoa Nuea (stir-fried minced beef with basil) and Pad Krapoa Gai (the chicken option) are prepared the traditional Thai way, which is slightly dry, allowing the bold basil and chilli notes to shine through. Pad Thai Goong with a generous amount of plump, juicy prawns. 'Comforting street food like pineapple fried rice and instant noodles stir-fried with tom yam spices add a casual touch. 'Fried favourites such as vegetable spring rolls, fish mousse wrapped in palm leaf and Thai fish cake are served with a tangy chilli dip to round out the selection,' he highlighted. The live cooking stations are a major highlight of the buffet. At the Pad Thai Goong station, silky rice noodles are cooked with juicy prawn, bean sprout, tofu and eggs. Guests can ask for a generous sprinkling of crushed peanut and lime juice on top to complete the dish. Another standout is Daging Bakar Danok – juicy, grilled marinated beef slices served with spicy dipping sauce. The meat is tender and smoky, with a hint of char that enhances its rich, savoury profile. If you enjoy dessert, the variety here is bound to impress. Som Tam Goong served atop sticky rice and grilled chicken. There's the chewy and fragrant Kanom Babin (mini coconut pancakes), while Mango Sticky Rice is served with perfectly ripened mango and a generous drizzle of creamy coconut sauce. Pandan Toast provides a comforting sweetness, while Ploy Krob (water chestnuts in coconut milk) and Kluay Buad Chee (bananas in coconut milk) offer a refreshing finish to the meal. To complement the feast, a variety of traditional Thai beverages are available, including rich Thai Iced Tea, aromatic Thai Green Tea and soothing Lemongrass Juice. Alongside the Thai food, there are also some Malaysian favourites for those needing a bit of local fare. The buffet is available until June 30, priced at RM168nett per adult and RM84nett per child for dinner and RM148nett per adult and RM74nett per child for lunch (Saturday and Sunday). THE MESH, Four Points by Sheraton Kuala Lumpur City Centre, corner of Jalan Sultan Ismail and Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur. (Tel: 03-2706 9099) Business hours: 6.30am-10.30pm.

Bitdefender To Acquire Mesh Security, Expanding Its Email Security Capabilities

Bitdefender, a global cybersecurity leader, today announced it has agreed to acquire Mesh Security Limited (Mesh), a provider of advanced email security solutions. Through the acquisition, Mesh's email security technology and capabilities will be integrated into Bitdefender's extended detection and response (XDR) platform and managed detection and response (MDR) services. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Email remains the most exploited attack vector and serves as an entry point for ransomware, phishing, and business email compromise (BEC). According to the FBI Internet Crime Report 2024, businesses reported nearly US$2.8 billion in losses due to BEC scams in 2024. Additionally, the 2024 Bitdefender Cybersecurity Assessment Report (based on a global survey of 1,200 cybersecurity professionals) identified phishing and social engineering as the top threats impacting their organisation. The acquisition will incorporate Mesh's email security capabilities into Bitdefender GravityZone, the company's flagship unified security, compliance, and risk analytics platform. Mesh employs a dual-layered approach to email security, combining perimeter-based protection via a secure email gateway (SEG) with mailbox-level defence through API-based deployment. This model expands visibility into threat activity across all vectors and contributes high-quality telemetry to Bitdefender's global threat intelligence network. A cornerstone of Bitdefender's continued growth is through its global network of over 41,000 channel and MSP partners. Mesh enhances this value by offering a centralised platform optimised for MSPs, enabling efficient multi-tenant email security management. Its solution provides 24x7 protection while reducing operational overhead. With automated policy enforcement, real-time threat insights, and seamless integration into existing workflows, Mesh empowers MSPs to deliver effective, scalable protection to customers. 'We are pleased to announce our intent to acquire Mesh, a strategic move that will complement our GravityZone XDR platform and power our MDR service to help businesses combat email-borne threats as they continue to evolve,' said Andrei Florescu, president and general manager of Bitdefender Business Solutions Group. 'Mesh brings leading-edge innovation from a deeply experienced team that shares our commitment to effective, real-world security. Together, we will further strengthen our ability to provide proven and trusted email protection to our global customer base.' Founded in 2020 and backed by investors Elkstone and Enterprise Ireland, Mesh has established itself as a trusted email security provider for hundreds of MSP partners and thousands of end customers globally. Known for its detection efficacy, MSP-centric architecture, and operational simplicity, Mesh has earned recognition for addressing the unique challenges of email-based threats with precision and ease of use. 'This is the beginning of something even bigger,' said Brian Byrne, chief executive officer and co-founder of Mesh. 'We've always focused on building practical, powerful email security that just works – and Bitdefender shares that same mindset. We're excited to join forces and bring stronger protection to even more organisations.' The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
