Where AI can help the finance team.
Answer
Give finance and leadership answers grounded in approved definitions and source data.
Investigate
Trace variances, exceptions and supporting evidence faster, with finance reviewing the conclusion.
Operate
Run recurring workflows with controls, approvals and handoffs made explicit.
What must exist first
AI needs reconciled data and agreed definitions.
- Approved definitions for the numbers the workflow uses.
- Data reconciled to source systems and the ledger.
- Documented controls, exceptions and approval points.
- Clear human ownership of finance policy and judgement.
What you get
A working finance workflow, measured against the current process.
- A baseline for the current workflow, including time, manual effort, errors and control risk.
- A working AI capability built around traceable answers and finance approval.
- Testing criteria, controls and evidence showing how it performs.
- Documentation and handover so your team can operate it and decide what comes next.
The boundary
Finance remains responsible for policy, controls and judgement.
AI can retrieve evidence, explain variances, draft commentary and run agreed workflows within those limits.
If an answer cannot show its evidence, owner and approval path, it is not ready for finance.
Services
Prepare the finance system before AI reads it.
