How every pack is built

From your books and your plan

Actuals come from your reconciled ledger, synced daily. Plan figures come from your budget, with locked budget versions and reforecasts kept as they were approved.

A narrative you have already reviewed

The executive summary is drawn from your monthly CFO memo after it has been reviewed, and ClariFi explains exactly what moved each headline number.

Variances that matter, and who explained them

One materiality threshold, set for your business, decides which variances are flagged. Each variance note shows who wrote it and when.

Checked before it goes out

Our team generates the pack and our experts review every section before it reaches an investor. Every number traces back to its source.
