Planful

Rethink Food has delivered 35 million meals across New York, Miami, and Chicago. Behind every one of them is a finance team that has to make every dollar count. But every report meant manually exporting data from two QuickBooks instances, stitching it together in spreadsheets, and reconciling differences before anything could go to leadership. "We just couldn't continue to do things like we did in the past," said Christopher Hollinger, CFO. With Planful, they didn't have to. Board reporting is now 33% faster, and the budget cycle that once stretched past two months closes in under one. Department heads access real-time budget-to-actual data without waiting on finance. "Planful was a great way for us to give what I consider enterprise-level financial analysis throughout the organization at a much lower cost than having to hire a large FP&A team," Christopher says.

Headcount is a starting point, but it's rarely the whole story. When compensation structures are complex, and Finance and HR are working from different assumptions, it's nearly impossible to know what's actually driving your costs. On April 28 at 9 a.m. PT, we're showing how teams like yours are solving this with Workforce Pro and introducing AI Comp Builder. This new capability lets you build and update complex compensation models in seconds, just by describing what you need. You'll walk away from this webinar knowing how to: → Align Finance and HR using shared compensation logic → Model costs with compensation-level detail across roles, regions, and scenarios → Track headcount and cost movement with full transparency through rollforward and variance bridge analysis Save your seat: https://ow.ly/CywI50YK3Mm

Exciting day at Planful! Really proud of the team behind it. Planful's Planner Assistant is live today! What stands out most is the moment it removes, right after the analysis, when you’d normally have to rebuild the forecast from scratch. That step is just gone now. Really excited to see this out in the world! See it for yourself → https://lnkd.in/eNVHR2xN

In all my conversations with finance professionals, these 3 things have been needed for a while: faster forecasting, earlier anomaly detection, and scenario exploration that doesn't require a manual model build. Planful's Planner Assistant brings all three into the same conversational interface as Analyst Assistant. The analysis and the planning are finally in one place.

Planful launched Planner Assistant today, and it's a big step toward making AI usable in day-to-day finance work. A lot of finance teams are being told to lean into AI. What's harder is finding tools that make that leap practical instead of theoretical. That's the gap Planner Assistant is built to close. Forecasting, scenario exploration, and anomaly detection all in the same space where your team is already doing analysis. No new tools. No rebuilding models. No losing the thread. Proud of the amazing team that helped bring this to life. Go check it out: https://lnkd.in/ekr_5Rh4
