Shared budget memory

Requests, revisions and decisions stay in the same workspace.

Variance visibility

Planned and actual values are tracked by period and department.

Controlled decision flow

Review and approval steps are tracked together with their owners.

Need and solution

From a real business need to a manageable process.

The need today

Scattered spreadsheets, multiple budget versions and approvals handled by email make it unclear which plan is the current one.

The Brainco approach

The product brings budget requests, planning, scenarios, approvals and actuals into a single model, creating a shared way of working between finance teams and business units.
