From a two-week close to real-time reporting

Before

Explaining budget vs. actual took two weeks every month: pull the data, chase business leaders for context, then write the commentary by hand. By the time it was done, people were already asking about the next month.

What I built

Real-time AI reporting that pulls the fragmented data together, splits the gap between budget and actual into its drivers, and drafts an explanation for each one.

Then it ranks what matters: business and senior leaders get a prioritized list of actions, not just a list of numbers. People still decide what to do; the AI does the digging.

What happened

The two-week manual cycle is gone; reporting is now real time. Finance moved from reporting results to recommending actions.
