An ops agent that runs the weekly close on its own.
Northwind's finance team spent every Monday stitching numbers together by hand. We replaced the ritual with an agent that does the stitching and only asks a human about the exceptions.
The problem
Every Monday, two analysts pulled numbers from the ERP, the bank feed, and a stack of spreadsheets, reconciled them by hand, and rebuilt the same weekly close from scratch. It took most of the day, it was error-prone, and it was the part of the job everyone dreaded.
They didn't want to remove the humans; they wanted the humans to stop doing the robotic part. That's a perfect first agent: high-volume, well-defined, and low-drama if it occasionally needs a second look.
What I built
A close agent that pulls from every source, reconciles line by line, drafts the weekly close, and surfaces only the lines it isn't sure about. A human approves the exceptions in Slack; the agent posts the rest.
How it works
The outcome
“It didn't replace the team. It deleted the part of the job they hated. Now Monday is for judgment, not copy-paste.”
