One system to monitor
review, and report.

01

Cut variance review time
by 60%

Eliminate manual variance calculation and root-cause analysis. Larry ranks variances by materiality and provides drill-down to transactions automatically.

02

Catch classification errors
early

Flag accounts with unusual activity or "unknown" categorisations / classifications during the close. Fix misclassifications before finalizing reports, not during audit.

03

Deliver insights 5 days
earlier

Provide preliminary variance analysis on day 3 of close instead of day 10. Give leadership actionable insights while there's still time to respond and without having to "circle back on this".
