Anyone can forecast now. Finicast helps you decide.
AI made forecasts abundant. What's scarce is knowing which move to make, trusting the number enough to act, and proving how you got there. Finicast connects your operational and financial data, surfaces the decisions most likely to move the number, and gives you the governance to act on them.

Why now
The forecast just became free. The decision is the hard part.
For thirty years, planning software sold the ability to build a model. AI made that abundant — first-pass forecasts, variance write-ups, even the board deck. The value didn't disappear. It moved. Finicast is built for where it went.
Now abundant
- First-pass forecasts
- Model building
- Variance write-ups
- Board-deck drafts
- Formula authoring
Still scarce
- Enterprise context
- Judgment under uncertainty
- Accountability & audit
- Cross-functional buy-in
- The confidence to act
What matters now
Three things AI can't commoditize.
Finicast is built on the parts of planning that get more valuable as forecasting gets cheaper.
Context
Forecasts are abundant. Context is the moat. Finicast connects the operational and financial data that describes how your business actually runs — and grounds every answer in it.
Decisions
Most planning tools record what you decided. Finicast surfaces what you should decide — the moves most likely to change the number — ranked by impact and ready to act on.
Governance
Who approved it, what changed, what went to the board, can an auditor reconstruct it. The system of record AI can't replace — and the reason you can trust AI to touch the plan at all.
Ask · Cast
Planning becomes a question, not a spreadsheet.
Stop opening workbooks. Ask Cast why a number moved, what happens if you freeze hiring, or whether you can hit Rule of 40 — and get an answer grounded in your own data, with the decision behind it and a citation you can verify.
- Answers grounded in your cells, dimensions, and logic
- Diagnose a variance and get a recommended move together
- Trace every answer back to the source you can click into
Why did EMEA gross margin decline last quarter — and what should we do about it?

Decide · Decision Agents
From recording plans to recommending actions.
Decision Agents watch your operational and financial signals around the clock and surface the highest-leverage moves — each ranked by impact and opened as a branch you review and merge.
Margin Agent
Watches. Gross margin by segment, product, and region
Recommends. Pricing and mix moves when margin drifts from plan — with the EBITDA impact of each.
Headcount Agent
Watches. Hiring vs. plan, ramp, and cash
Recommends. When to pull hiring forward or hold it, and what it does to runway.
Pipeline Agent
Watches. Conversion, coverage, and capacity
Recommends. Where to add capacity or reallocate territory to protect the number.
Cash Agent
Watches. Burn, runway, and working capital
Recommends. Spend and timing changes that extend runway without stalling growth.
Govern
The system of record AI can't replace.
A CFO doesn't care whether forecast version 17 came from an analyst or an AI. They care who approved it, what assumptions changed, what went to the board, and whether an auditor can reconstruct it six months later. That's what Finicast is built around — and it's exactly what makes it safe to let AI near the plan.
- Branch, snapshot, approve, and merge — a full version history
- Roles and permissions down to the dimension and member
- Collaboration across hundreds of budget owners
Connect
Forecasts are abundant. Context is the moat.
A forecast is only as good as what it knows about your business. Finicast connects ERP, CRM, HRIS, payroll, operational systems, and the data warehouse into one model — so every answer and recommendation is grounded in how your business actually runs, not a generic guess.
- One connected view of operational and financial reality
- Org structure, cost centers, comp, and history in context
- Plan, actuals, and operational signals reconciled continuously

One grounded view of operational + financial reality
The honest objection
“Won't our ERP just add AI planning?”
It's the right question to ask. ERP and HR suites own a lot of the data — and some will bolt on AI. But the data lives in silos, the planning experience is an afterthought, and decisions in a real business cross finance, revenue, people, and operations at once.
Finicast sits across those systems, not inside one of them. It's decision-first, fast to stand up, and built so the people who own the plan — not just the system that stores it — can act with confidence.
