Month-end close shouldn't feel like a scramble.

You close the books. You run the reports. Then the real work begins: scanning for anomalies, building Excel charts, interpreting trends, drafting variance commentary, and fielding last-minute executive questions—all under deadline pressure.
 
It’s time-consuming, high-stakes work. And when you’re doing it manually, it’s easy to miss patterns buried in the data or struggle to explain what’s driving a variance.
 
The result? Finance teams spend more time creating reports and trying to interpret the meaning behind them rather than providing clear, strategic insight. And executives don’t get the strategic insights they need to act.

AI built for real financial analysis—not generic queries.

Unlike high-level FP&A tools or general-purpose AI chatbots, Telli is designed specifically for deep financial reporting intelligence. Scroll over the boxes to learn more about Telli’s capabilities.

GL, segment, and entity-level depth

As long as your financial report is structured accordingly, Telli can interpret it and provide insights down to the general ledger, segment, and entity level.

Multi-entity intelligence

Telli understands rollups, consolidations, and segment structures. Compare locations, departments, entities, and hierarchies—quickly and accurately.

Finance-specific guided workflows

Designed for controllers and CFOs, Telli offers finance-specific prompts and workflows that accelerate the analysis work required for a successful close.

24/7 access to financial expertise

Use Telli Chat to ask accounting questions, refine analysis, or drill into specific areas. It's like having a GAAP accounting expert on call—bridging automated insight with human judgment.

Narrative and commentary generation

Reduce the burden of manual summaries and variance explanations. Telli generates commentary describing what it found, why it matters, potential impact, and recommended actions. Just copy, paste, refine.

Governance and audit support

Each AI-generated insight includes supporting detail: formulas used, reasoning applied, and the underlying GL data analyzed. This creates an audit trail for auditors and regulators.
All resulting in speed to action
Telli enables you to shift time away from manual analysis and toward higher-value work. Pair ReportFYI financial reporting automation with AI-driven insights to accelerate data-backed decision-making and improve business responsiveness.

How Telli Changes Your Workflow

From the time books are closed, the process from generating reports to presenting executive-ready insights is traditionally a long and laborious one. Telli cuts through this process and does most of the grunt work for you.

Your data stays private. Period.

We know confidentiality isn’t negotiable. That’s why Telli is architected differently from consumer AI tools.

Runs in your own Azure environment

Telli operates within your designated tenant and uses your own database, within FYIsoft's Azure environment (or your own).

No public AI training

Your confidential financial data stays in your private environment and is never used to train external AL models.

Best of both worlds

Telli can pull in broader knowledge from public AI models for general guidance and expertise, but your private financial data never flows out—only general knowledge flows in.

Leverages Microsoft Foundry

If your company already uses Foundry for AI dev, Telli can use that same instance so your governance rules and guardrails apply.

Audit-ready transparency

Every insight includes the reasoning, formulas, and underlying GL data used, so auditors and regulators can trace how conclusions were reached.

You stay in control

Customize analysis preferences, tone, output format, and what gets analyzed.

Four layers of intelligence—built for finance.

Telli isn’t a generic chatbot. It’s trained specifically for accounting and finance, with layers of built-in intelligence and an understanding of your organization, data, and report structures.
