8+ years executive leadership across finance, compliance, collections, and operations.
Built by a CFO Who Started in Sales.
ClearPath was founded by Isiah Manzo — one of the only executives in the country who went from SVP of Sales & Marketing to CFO at the same firm. That rare combination of revenue operations and financial leadership is why ClearPath builds AI solutions that don't just fix accounting problems — they drive revenue.
The Story.
Most firms that touch receivables are accounting firms. They think in debits and credits. They clean up the books and hand them back. That's necessary work — but it's not what we do.
I spent eight years as VP of Finance, Compliance, and Equity Partner at a $20M+ commercial collection agency. I built every financial system the company ran on — the first cash flow statement, the first predictive revenue model, proprietary performance metrics, and a financial analytics platform that forecasted revenue within 5-10% accuracy across 100+ clients. When the company was hemorrhaging $40-60K a month, I restructured a 42-person organization and flipped cash flow positive in 30 days. I did that three times.
But before I was a CFO, I was an SVP of Sales and Marketing. I understand what sales teams need. I understand customer acquisition costs. I understand that the richest data about your customers isn't in your CRM — it's in your receivables. Who pays fast. Who disputes. Who's growing. Who's about to leave. That data is sitting in your order-to-cash process right now, and nobody is turning it into intelligence.
That's why ClearPath isn't an accounting firm. We're a corporate intelligence firm backed by a network of CFOs and CIOs who understand that AI is only as powerful as the data underneath it. We prepare the data. We build the AI. We run the programs. And we deliver intelligence that drives cash flow AND revenue.

Why Corporate Intelligence — and Why O2C Only.
Every CPA, bookkeeper, and AI vendor has the same blind spot. CPAs can't build AI. AI vendors won't clean data. Nobody connects the financial foundation to the intelligence layer. ClearPath exists in that gap — and only that gap. We prepare companies for AI, build custom solutions, and manage them ongoing. That narrow focus isn't a limitation. It's the entire strategy.
