Meet Our Founders

In 2019, Thomas and Mike started a small meet-up for ACL Analytics users in Vancouver. The idea was simple: swap tips, scripts, and shortcuts that make audits faster and better. As the community expanded and new tools emerged, the group evolved into GAAX—the Global Audit Analytics Exchange—where we explore the full audit analytics toolkit, from ACL to whatever helps get the job done.
