Real-time Visibility for Faster Decisions

Dashboards that refresh by the minute help leaders navigate pricing shifts, supply hiccups, and headcount decisions with confidence. When revenue by segment, gross margin by product, and cash runway are one click away, board prep becomes routine, not ritual. Comment with the KPI you wish you could see live every morning.

From Compliance to Competitive Edge

Automated reconciliations, rules-based categorization, and consolidated reporting reduce close times while improving accuracy. Freeing capacity from manual tie-outs lets finance focus on pricing tests, cohort analysis, and scenario planning. Share how much time your team spends on compliance versus strategy—and what you would change first.

Security and Trust in the Cloud

Modern platforms bring SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, SSO, and MFA, plus immutable audit trails that make auditors smile. One CIO told us their annual audit shrank by two weeks after standardizing roles and approval workflows. Ask about your vendor’s data residency options and disaster recovery drills before you sign.

Evaluating the Right Stack

Look for multi-entity, multi-currency, and dimensional reporting if you plan to expand internationally or acquire. Native approvals, expense controls, and subscription billing reduce bolt-ons later. Tell us your top three must-haves and we’ll help pressure-test them against real-world use.

Metrics That Move the Board

Close Speed and Accuracy

Track days to close, reconciliation completion rate, and variance thresholds by account. Leaders who move from twelve-day closes to five gain an extra week for insight. Post your current close timeline and we’ll share templates for accelerating without sacrificing control.

Cash and Forecast Quality

Use a 13-week cash forecast tied to real bank data and modeled collections. Scenario analysis—price changes, hiring plans, supplier terms—separates hope from plan. What is the single lever that most improves your cash runway today? Let’s explore it with example assumptions.

Operational Efficiency Wins

Measure cost per invoice, touchless transaction rate, and approval cycle times. An AP team we advised hit 78% touchless processing after tuning OCR rules and vendor onboarding. Share your baseline metrics and we’ll suggest achievable targets for the next quarter.

Stories from the C-Suite

Maya took over a distressed distributor with messy payables and stale inventory. By automating three-way matches and surfacing aged stock weekly, she negotiated supplier terms, cleared dead inventory, and freed $2.1M in cash. What choke point would you target first in a turnaround?

Stories from the C-Suite

Luis expanded into two new countries in six months. Multi-entity, multi-currency consolidations turned month-end chaos into a single, trusted view. With localized tax rules baked in, his team focused on pricing and fulfillment. Where does international complexity slow your team the most?

Build a Finance Culture of Curiosity

Host monthly ‘show the numbers’ sessions where analysts demo live dashboards, not slide decks. Use short Looms for recurring questions. Invite your team to subscribe for practical playbooks and share a process they want to automate next.

Communicate Business Value, Not Just Data

Translate metrics into actions: which campaigns scale, which SKUs shrink, which hires wait. Share wins and misses with the same candor. Drop a comment with the stakeholder who needs a tailored view—we’ll suggest a dashboard layout that speaks their language.
