Double, the leading AI close platform, has launched Autoclose by Double, a product that lets accounting teams hand the work of the month-end close to AI agents. The launch was announced on October 26, 2026. Attivo Partners, an AI-forward accounting and finance firm that supports more than 500 venture-backed companies on Double, has signed on to roll out Autoclose across its practice, working alongside the company as an early adopter and building partner.

The month-end close, in which finance teams reconcile accounts, verify balances, and finalize financial statements after each accounting period, has long been among the most labor-intensive recurring workloads in accounting. Traditional closes typically depend on monthly checklists of tasks such as gathering statements, posting accruals, and matching transactions. That checklist structure is what Autoclose is built to hand off: agents take over execution, and the preparer's month-end role narrows to review.

AI Agents Run the Close Throughout the Month

With Autoclose, agents execute each step of the close throughout the month, from fetching bank statements and categorizing bank feeds to reconciling accounts. The agents operate across the banks, payment platforms, and systems that firms already use. Spreading execution across the month distributes close work that traditional checklists compress into the period's final days. When the month ends, accountants open review-ready books, resolve the items flagged for attention, and sign off — a workflow that puts review and judgment, rather than step-by-step preparation, at the center of the accountant's close.

“Automating the close has always been the promise of AI in accounting, and with Autoclose, we’ve delivered on it,” said Ben Stein, CEO of Double. “With agents doing the work of the close, firms can grow revenue without growing headcount. Over time, that changes the shape of the whole organization, and firms like Attivo are leading the way.”

Attivo Extends AI Across Its Client Base

Attivo has been actively embedding AI into its accounting workflows across its client base. The firm already uses Double’s AI for variance analysis, client setup, recurring accrs, and transaction processing. Autoclose builds on that foundation, extending AI from individual workflows to the entire close. For a practice like Attivo's, the difference is structural: close execution across 500-plus client relationships moves to agents, leaving the firm's teams the review and the client work the agents don't handle.

“Autoclose represents the kind of opportunity we see for AI to fundamentally rethink how accounting work gets done,” said Greg Capitolo, Managing Partner and Co-Founder of Attivo Partners. “Our work with Double is helping us reduce repetitive work across the close and create more capacity for our teams to focus on the judgment, experience, and client partnership that technology can’t replace.”

How the rollout performs across Attivo's base of more than 500 venture-backed companies will provide an early, at-scale view of agent-run closes in production — including how much of the repetitive close workload the agents absorb and how firms redeploy the capacity they free up.
