What it checks

- Accrual proposals for uninvoiced services with supporting PO or contract quotes
- Prepaid amortisation catch-up when schedules drift from invoices
- Intercompany imbalance flags with counterparty account references
Worked example on demo data
Professional services expense drops 40% month-on-month while Aster Bank’s Lindqvist Advisory engagement is still active.
The Close Agent proposes a $38,000 accrual for uninvoiced January work, citing the master services agreement cap and last approved timesheet summary in the demo pack.
The controller edits the amount, approves the journal, and records review — the agent does not post unilaterally.
How your team stays in control
Accrual and adjustment entries stay in proposed status until maker-checker approval.
Materiality thresholds are configuration, not model guesses.
Close checklists show which items still need a human owner.
Month-end close is a sequence of judgments, not a single button. Controllers need help explaining flux, catching missing accruals, and documenting who approved each entry.
FinanceAI’s Close Agent reads the trial balance, proposes adjustments like the $38,000 Lindqvist Advisory accrual, and ties narratives to supporting documents. Maker-checker approval is mandatory before post.

Questions buyers ask
Does this replace our consolidation tool?
It assists account review and narratives; consolidation systems remain authoritative for group reporting.
Can we map our chart of accounts?
Yes during implementation. Trials use the Aster Bank COA sample.
How does it handle intercompany?
It flags mismatched balances and proposes pairing entries for approval — it does not eliminate legal entity boundaries.
Is SOC 2 required?
SOC 2 Type I is in preparation. Enterprise contracts include your security review and deployment model.
