AI Spending Trends: What Ramp's Data Tells Us About the Future of Finance

​AI spending is surging — but what's actually happening beneath the surface?

​Join Ramp economist Ara Kharazian and Rillet Head of Finance Stephen Hedlund for a live fireside chat unpacking the real data behind AI spending across thousands of companies.

​In this session, Ara will share exclusive insights from Ramp's proprietary data on how companies are spending on AI, how those patterns are shifting, and what it all means for the broader economic picture — with a specific lens on what finance leaders need to know.

​What we'll cover:

• ​How much are companies actually spending on AI — and is it working?

• ​What does the data say about AI's impact on jobs and the labor market?

• ​Are companies keeping AI costs under control, or is spend spiraling?

• ​What's happening with Anthropic, Claude, and the AI infrastructure boom?

• ​What this means for finance and accounting teams specifically

​Who should attend: CFOs, Controllers, VPs of Finance, and finance leaders at high-growth tech companies who want to understand the real economic picture behind AI — not the hype.

​Speakers:

​Ara Kharazian — Economist, Ramp

​Stephen Hedlund — Head of Finance, Rillet
