Description
Numeric is an AI-powered financial close automation platform that helps accounting teams coordinate tasks, reconcile accounts, and complete flux analysis in one place instead of juggling spreadsheets and checklists. It connects directly to ERP systems like NetSuite, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks, and Xero, pulling in general ledger detail to automate reconciliations and draft flux explanations with AI. Trusted by companies including Wealthfront, Brex, Plaid, AngelList, and public company Riskified, Numeric is built for mid-market finance teams that already run one of those ERPs and want AI leverage on their month-end close.
Key Features
- AI-drafted flux analysis: Automatically drafts a significant share of flux explanations rather than requiring manual write-ups.
- Automated reconciliation: Cuts down cash matching and account reconciliation from days to hours.
- Close management: Centralized checklists, templates, approvals, and supporting documentation for the whole close cycle.
- ERP integration: Transaction-level depth on NetSuite, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks, and Xero, not just summary balances.
- Excel sync: Links and syncs with Excel for teams that still reconcile in spreadsheets alongside Numeric.
- Anomaly detection: Flags unusual transactions or patterns for audit-ready review.
How It Works
Numeric connects directly to a team’s existing ERP, pulling transaction-level general ledger detail rather than just summary balances. During the month-end close, Numeric organizes the checklist of tasks, approvals, and supporting documentation the team needs to complete, while its AI automates cash matching and account reconciliation, cutting a process that used to take days down to hours. For flux analysis, Numeric drafts a large share of the explanation automatically by comparing period-over-period changes against the connected ERP data, and its discover features surface a roadmap into the details a team would otherwise have to dig for manually inside the ERP. The whole close stays centralized and audit-ready rather than scattered across spreadsheets.
Technical Architecture & Overview
- Core Engine: An AI-native close automation engine handling flux drafting, data-quality checks, and reconciliation, built directly into the platform rather than bolted onto legacy software.
- Deployment: Cloud-based web platform that sits on top of an existing ERP; not a standalone general ledger.
- API Surface: Deep, transaction-level ERP connections to NetSuite, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks, and Xero, plus Excel sync for reconciliations.
- Known Limits: Requires an active NetSuite, Sage Intacct, or QuickBooks Online subscription underneath; pricing is quote-only with no public self-serve rate and no advertised free trial.
