Case study · Monthly close and multilingual reporting

They close the month in 20 minutes. Their leaders got 35 days a year back.

A mid-size multinational company had to close every month and report to headquarters and subsidiaries in different languages. With AI, a full day of repetitive work became a 20-minute review.

Does this sound like your company?

Management, tax and accounting reports are sensitive, repetitive and due on a fixed date. Most companies with more than one office live with all of this.

  • The close depends on one person who knows the rules, the taxes and the languages.1 personholding knowledge the company cannot lose
  • Management, tax and accounting reports must be ready on time, every month.Every monthwith no room for delay
  • Entries are typed and classified manually.Line by linerepetitive work by a senior person
  • Vacations, sick days or a busy project delay the close.Delaysheadquarters waits for the numbers

Small tasks are the biggest time sinks. One day a month looks harmless until you add it up: 288 hours a year of a senior person's time.

How it worked

01

Learn

AI read the previous months' closes and learned the classification rules, the taxes and the terms in each language.

02

Prepare

AI fills in every entry from history, flags what needs a tax document and builds the management, tax and accounting reports in each language and format.

03

Review

A person reviews in minutes and corrects what is needed. AI learns from each correction, so next month comes out with fewer errors.

AI prepares the close. A person reviews and signs off on every number. Leaders now spend that time on strategy, and the company delivers more projects and bills more.
