Financial model & forecast

Each refresh a finance modeler ties out the 3-statement model from actuals, builds the forecast and scenarios, and reports runway — and a reviewer re-runs the integrity checks before you sign off the model.

Saves you ~5.4 h / week

Start with this playbook

How it works

Trigger
On the “Model refresh run” schedule.
Job
Pull actuals, refresh the model and forecast, re-run integrity checks.
Outcome
A checked financial model and forecast with assumptions, scenarios, and decision notes.

What it installs

Agents 3

  • Finance Modeler

    Owns the integrated model, the budget forecast and scenarios, and the cash/runway view.

  • Model Reviewer

    Independently verifies the model's tie-outs, scenario behavior, and runway logic before it reaches the human.

  • Financial model & forecast Quality Reviewer

    Checks primary evidence, domain controls, deliverable completeness, and communication quality, stopping the run when the work is wrong, unsupported, incomplete, or uncertain.

Teams 1

  • Model Team

    A modeler who refreshes the model and forecast, and a reviewer who re-runs the integrity checks.

Workflows 1

  • Model & forecast

    Pull actuals, refresh the model and forecast, re-run integrity checks, report runway, and approve.

Goals 1

  • Runway known, model tied out every refresh

    Always know how much runway remains, with a model that ties out, on the chosen cadence. Success looks like: Each refresh produces a reviewer-verified, human-approved model in which every core integrity check passes in every period and scenario, with a reproducible runway number and base/upside/downside scenarios.

Skills 5

  • 3-statement-model

    Populate an integrated 3-statement model formula-first, preserving template structure, with stepwise verification and the full set of cross-statement integrity checks (balance, cash tie-out, NI link, RE roll-forward, equity financing). Adapted from anthropics/financial-services/3-statement-model.

  • financial-modeling

    Build integrated 3-statement projections from 2–3 years of historicals and a driver set — IS/BS/CF linkages, working-capital and debt schedules, and base/bull/bear scenarios. Adapted from claude-office-skills/skills/financial-modeling.

  • forecast

    Build a weighted forecast with best/likely/worst scenarios, a committed-vs-upside split, and a gap analysis against the target — from pipeline/bookings or a driver set. Adapted from anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins/forecast.

  • cash-flow-snapshot

    Produce a 30/60/90-day cash forecast with percentage-variance confidence bands and named risk flags from AR/AP and fixed costs — read-only, with a clear runway/payroll view. Adapted from anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins/cash-flow-snapshot.

  • financial-plan

    Frame the model as a living plan: cash-flow projections, scenario modeling (early/downturn/higher-spend cases), and conservative-assumption stress-testing, with a prioritized action list. Adapted from anthropics/financial-services/financial-plan.

Schedules 1

  • Model refresh run

    Refreshes the financial model and forecast on the schedule you choose. ## Professional quality control Objective: complete the recurring Financial model & forecast operating cycle and deliver a review-ready, evidence-backed result rather than merely report that the schedule ran. Start by fixing the review period, reading the current source records and prior run, confirming required access, and listing missing or contradictory inputs. Execute the bundle's full authored method in order, retaining source, calculation, command, or before/after evidence for load-bearing findings. Separate facts from interpretation, apply supplied policy without inventing thresholds, and stop any branch that requires missing authority or an unconfirmed human rule. Produce the complete named deliverable plus an evidence record, assumptions, exceptions, unresolved questions, and concrete next actions with owners where the method calls for them. Run the workflow's independent verifier checks and fix failures before requesting approval. The task is done only when every requested section and quality criterion passes or a blocker is explicit; silence, inaccessible data, or polished prose is not proof of completion. Recompute material figures independently from raw records; verify period, currency, sign, formula, rounding, tie-outs, and roll-forwards. Distinguish accounting policy from assumptions and route judgment to the human. Financial narrative must explain drivers plainly without generic AI phrasing, invented precision, or certainty unsupported by the books. The human retains authority over publication, sending, spend, signing, merging, deployment, and other consequential external actions.

Requirements

  • Browser access to your accounting tool — The agent works in your accounting tool (QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite) through its web interface in your browser to pull the trial balance and actuals, and pauses for your approval before making any changes. Until you connect it, it works from attached exports of the trial balance and actuals.
  • Model & forecast source data — The existing 3-statement model (or a blank template), the trial balance and actuals for the period, the prior-period model, the driver/assumption set, and AR/AP detail plus known fixed costs for the cash/runway view.
