Financial Intelligence

You have strong cash today, but £31,600 of supplier commitments fall due within 14 days. Three overdue customer invoices account for most of the short-term cash-flow pressure. The system recommends chasing those first before considering discretionary spend.

Transactions

AI-assisted categorisation with visible confidence and human review.

Confidence is shown, not hidden

A 98% match is very different from a 62% guess. The system makes that visible so uncertain transactions are checked before they affect the ledger.

Receipts & Document Capture

Extract supplier, date, VAT and value from images or PDFs and match them to transactions.

What happens after upload

The system reads the receipt, extracts the important fields, checks for duplicates and tries to match it to a bank transaction. Low-confidence extraction remains in review.

Invoices & Bills

See what customers owe, what the business owes and what needs action now.

Receivables and payables in plain English

Money due in is customer debt owed to the business. Money due out is supplier and other business commitments. The system should help prioritise both.

Reconciliation

Match bank activity to invoices, bills and ledger records with clear confidence.

What reconciliation means

It checks that the bank movement and the accounting record agree. High-confidence matches can be prepared quickly, but ambiguous matches stay in review.

Financial Reports

Management views that explain the numbers rather than just displaying them.

Profit & Loss

Income, direct costs, operating expenses and current profit movement.

Balance Sheet

Assets, liabilities and business equity at the reporting date.

Cash Flow

Operating, investing and financing movement plus forward forecast.

AI management explanation

Revenue is stable, but near-term cash pressure is being driven by overdue customer receipts and a cluster of supplier commitments. The operating position remains healthy if the top three receivables are collected within the next 14 days.

How the AI is allowed to behave

It may analyse, explain, classify, forecast and prepare actions. It must not silently make payments, file tax, alter bank details or commit uncertain accounting treatment.

Ask Caelomere Finance

Live AI requires the server-side Worker and API secret. The browser never stores the OpenAI key.

AI result

Ask a question to begin. The answer will separate evidence, inference, risk and recommended action.

Finance AI protection rules

Confidence gatingLow-confidence classifications are never silently posted to the ledger.
Payment lockAI can prepare payment instructions but cannot release funds without authorised approval.

Low-confidence categorisation, tax treatment, payment decisions, bank changes and filing actions should not silently proceed. They come here for a person to decide.

The guarantee is architectural: uncertain or high-impact actions are blocked behind controls, approvals and audit records instead of being trusted blindly.

7-Day Internal Proving Cycle

Hit the service hard before any client relies on it.
