The people building the finance brain.

Headquarters · Karlsruhe, Germany
Culture · Diverse, distributed, remote-friendly
Founders & executives deserve a finance system that actually understands their business.
ValueWorks was founded in 2020 with a stubborn belief: that the people running fast-growing companies should not spend their days assembling data, but acting on it. That insight should come in minutes, not days. That value creation should be data-driven by default.
We build the decision intelligence platform for the office of the CFO — connecting fragmented data into a digital twin, layering AI that respects context and permissions, and shipping decisions, not dashboards.
Led by experience. Built for finance teams.

Built in the CyberLab.
