What it does

Risk review

A rule-based score (days back, other month or year, amount, how often the user backdates) that the AI can move by at most 25 points, with an explanation the approver reads in seconds.

Reason assistant

Flags vague reasons like "late entry" and proposes a clear one, with [placeholders] for facts only the user knows.

Date from the attachment

Reads the real date from the PDF or image of a bill, invoice, payment or transfer and fills it in.

Ask AI

Auditors ask in plain words, on the dashboard or in Insights, and get the matching date changes. Only safe, approved filters are accepted.

Monthly summary

By email: totals, the riskiest backdates and patterns worth a look.
