Automated reporting

Monday's report is in the inbox, and nobody spent Friday building it.

An agent that collects from every source on a schedule, computes what changed, and sends the report in the format your team actually reads.

The situation you are probably in

The monthly report costs somebody two days of copying numbers between tabs, and it arrives describing a month that is already over. Between reports, nobody looks, because looking means assembling. The business is flying on a photograph taken three weeks ago.

What we do about it

The agent pulls from every named source on a schedule, computes every figure in code, and writes what changed in plain English, because a wall of numbers is a report nobody reads. It arrives where your team already looks: the inbox, the morning, the same time. The model writes the sentences around figures it was handed; it is never the source of a number. When a source breaks, a named person is told, rather than the report quietly shipping a gap.

Typical engagement. Two to six weeks depending on how many sources need connecting, then a monthly line to keep the connectors healthy as the platforms change.

Where this already runs

Five reports arrive on schedule across our own systems with nobody assembling them: a Monday memo and daily digest from sixteen marketing data sources, a Monday digest across a nine-company group, a weekly parent digest in our learning product, and a morning brief and end-of-day wrap in our market intelligence product. The mechanism is identical whatever the sources are.

Most builds of this shape start with the two-week assessment: we map the process as it runs today, cost it, and write the scope. The fee is credited in full against the build.

Start with the two-week assessment

What you receive.

Concrete things, not outcomes on a slide. This list is the scope of the engagement.

  1. 1

    Every source connected and pulled on a schedule, with the list written down

  2. 2

    Every figure computed in code, with the model writing sentences, never numbers

  3. 3

    What changed, said in plain English at the top, before the tables

  4. 4

    Delivery where your team already looks, on the schedule you set

  5. 5

    An alert to a named person when a source fails, instead of a silent gap

  6. 6

    The history kept in a database you own, so any figure can be traced back

A good fit when

  • Somebody assembles the same report by hand every week or month
  • The numbers live in three or more systems
  • Decisions wait on the report arriving

Price it before you commission it

Put the hours the task takes today, the salary of the person doing it and any quote you hold through the payback calculator. It shows the yearly saving, the payback period and the arithmetic behind both. Free, and nothing is stored.

Figures from our own systems that this service draws on. Each one names its source.

16
data sources feeding one set of numbers everyone reads
30+
jobs that run overnight so nobody has to remember to start them
5
months running every day with nobody operating it

Every figure names its source. How we count. The investing system runs on a broker paper account, not real money.
