How it works

Data room in. Red Flag Report out — in five agent steps.

One agent per workstream. Output flows through the pipeline, so partners review a Red Flag Report on day one — not end of week two.

The Pipeline

End-to-End Red Flag Report Generation in Hours.

Each agent learns your firm's standards once — materiality thresholds, databook template, review conventions — and applies them on every FDD engagement.

01
Flat-File Agent

3 Years of Trial Balances, Standardized Overnight

Three years, three ERPs, three formats — plus bank statement PDFs and tax filings. The Flat-File Agent ingests everything and outputs one source-traced flat file before kickoff at consistent granularity.

  • Standardizes TBs across formats (SAP, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, Sage, Excel) and across periods
  • Reconciles back to audited financials and flags any unmapped or restated line items
  • Every cell traces back to its source document and row

02
Databook Agent

Databook in your Firm's template, generated from the Flat File in minutes.

Every firm has its own standard analytical pack — revenue cuts, GM trends, AR aging, opex bridges, cash conversion. The Databook Agent builds the full pack directly from the flat file in your firm's template.

  • Revenue cuts, GM trend, AR aging, opex bridge, cash conversion — all auto-generated
  • Output in your firm's template — directors see what they are used to

FSLI Deep-Dive Agent

Every Material Line Item, Not Just the Top 15

In a manual Phase 0, associates can realistically deep-dive 10-15 line items before time runs out. The FSLI Agent scans every material line item across all periods — revenue, COGS, opex, NWC components, capex — and surfaces anomalies with severity, source references, and supporting cells.

  • Line-by-line analysis across every material FSLI — no sampling, no top-N tradeoffs
  • Classifies findings as HIGH / MED / LOW with explainable reasoning and source refs
  • Detects RPT exposure, revenue concentration, margin compression, aging spikes, capex anomalies

DDQ Agent

Management Questions Ready Before the First Call

Most DDQs are drafted reactively — after partners spot gaps in the deck. The DDQ Agent drafts L2/L3 questions from every FSLI flag and data gap, before kickoff.

  • L2/L3 questions auto-drafted from FSLI Analysis and data gaps
  • Categorized by workstream (revenue, NWC, opex, RPTs, capex) for management routing
  • Every question links to its supporting exhibit, line item, and source cell

Red Flag Report Agent

The Phase 0 Deliverable, in Your Firm's Template

Assembles flat file, databook, FSLI findings, and open DDQs into a partner-reviewable Phase 0 deliverable in your firm's template. Every number traces to source.

  • Generates Executive Summary, QoE Snapshot, NWC Outlook, Red Flags, and Open Items sections
  • Auto-links findings to the underlying databook exhibit and FSLI workbook
  • Built in your firm's Red Flag / Phase 0 template — Word, PPT, or Excel
