Three axes, from the forecast to the close

Three axes specific to the finance function. The method underneath them is the same across all five industries. The most time freed up is in planning and analysis.

01Financial planning and analysis

Responsible area · Financial Planning and Analysis

Why does the forecast keep missing?

Lower forecast error and every deviation explained by its cause.

The axis with the most freed time. Predictive forecasting reduces error, reporting is automated, and root cause analysis explains every variance.

  • Predictive financial forecasting and AI assisted budgetingThe forecast reruns itself on your sales, cost and exchange rate data.
  • Root cause analysis of budget variancesEvery variance arrives with the account, cost center and month behind it.
  • Financial scenario modelingAnswer what happens if price falls or cost rises, in the meeting.
  • Automated financial reporting and generative AI narrativeThe monthly pack arrives written and the team only reviews it.
  • Performance dashboards and alerts for the finance functionThe deviation reaches you the same day, not at month end.
02Treasury, cash and working capital

Responsible area · Treasury and Working Capital

Will we have cash in ninety days?

Cash projected ahead of time and a shorter conversion cycle.

Anticipates cash and frees working capital. Cash flow prediction and real time monitoring shorten the cash conversion cycle.

  • Cash flow predictionYou see cash ninety days out with time left to act on it.
  • Working capital monitoringYou see how much cash sits still in inventory and in receivables.
  • Collections and cash conversion cycle optimizationEach client lands in a collection queue ranked by amount, delay and risk.
  • Payments analytics and liquidity managementYou get a payment priority policy and a cash floor that caps it.
  • Accounting close automation and financial document extractionInvoices read themselves and close entries reconcile with no one retyping.
  • Anomaly detection and AI assisted internal controlError or fraud surfaces before it reaches the statements.
03Investment risk and capital decisions

Responsible area · Investments and Investment Committee

What happens if the price drops twenty percent?

The range of outcomes and the variables that move value, before deciding.

Quantifies risk before deciding. Monte Carlo modeling and sensitivity analysis show the range of outcomes and the variables that move value.

  • Financial risk modeling with Monte CarloYou reach the committee with odds of loss, not one point estimate.
  • Scenario analytics for the Investment CommitteeThe committee gets every scenario compared in one table before the vote.
  • Sensitivity analysis and value variable identificationYou know the three variables that decide the outcome.
  • Market risk and financial exposure analysisMeasures what a price or exchange rate drop costs you.

Responsible delivery

The number has to be correct and auditable

We use generative AI to assist and draft under human review, never for automated high risk decisions. Every result stays traceable, from the source to the report.

From data to judgment, with the number always auditable

Every front returns time to the team and accuracy to the number, on a single source of truth. That way the finance function moves from processing data to being a partner in the decision.
