Campfire markets itself as "the AI-native ERP" and promises to close the books three to ten days faster⁠1Campfire: the AI-native ERPCampfire. Its scope is the finance function: ledger, revenue, reporting and close.

Best for: Finance teams at venture-backed companies that want consolidation across many entities and an AI assistant on the ledger.

Not the right fit for: Companies that need inventory, purchasing or order management in the same system.

What Campfire covers

Core accounting is a general ledger with multi-entity consolidation across unlimited entities and more than 180 currencies, without separate instances per subsidiary⁠1Campfire: the AI-native ERPCampfire. Revenue automation handles recognition for different billing models, and close management includes checklists, flux analysis and account reconciliation. Ember, its accounting assistant, answers questions about the ledger. Campfire also describes automatic transaction categorisation and continuous reconciliation that matches payments to invoices "with control".

Payables and receivables appear as use cases rather than modules, and inventory, purchasing and order management are not described.
