Light vs Maximor
Maximor is an AI finance-automation platform. Its agents connect to your existing ERP, payroll, billing and banking systems to automate reconciliations, journal entries, revenue allocation and close checklists, explicitly without replacing the ERP. Light works differently: one agentic ledger where the agents work inside the system of record rather than across the systems around it.
