Orientation

Integrated Financial Statements
Synario comes out of the box with pre-mapped accounting, meaning financial statements are fully connected and automated. Changes to assumptions, capital initiatives, and more flow across every statement, including cash flow.

Patented Multiverse Modeling™ technology allows users to explore an unlimited number of scenarios or what-if questions from a single model. Empower your analysis with superior financial model, budget and forecasting tools from Synario.
Anomaly Detection
Anomaly Detection uses machine learning to pre-process your report data and flag values that fall outside expected patterns, giving your team an extra layer of analysis on your financial outputs. Flagged values are highlighted directly on the report alongside AI-generated explanations, so you can quickly locate and understand what needs a closer look.
