Admin Overhead

Reclaiming 31 hours a month from finance operations

Reconciliation, vendor follow-ups, and report assembly were eating a controller's week. We turned them into reviewable, logged actions.

31 hrs

Recovered per month

Finance teams accumulate small, repetitive tasks that never make it onto a roadmap: matching line items, chasing a missing invoice, rebuilding the same month-end summary. Individually trivial, collectively a part-time job.

We catalogued every recurring action over two weeks, then ranked them by frequency and risk. High-frequency, low-risk tasks became automated drafts. High-risk tasks stayed manual but got better context attached.

Every automated step writes to an append-only audit log: what was proposed, who approved it, and when it executed. The controller moved from doing the work to supervising it.

After thirty days, the team measured 31 hours of recovered time per month - hours that moved from data entry to actual financial analysis.
