AI agents for finance teams
Finance workflows are structured, high-stakes, and repeatable — exactly the profile that works well for AI agents. These guides cover what to build, how to design it safely, and what to get right before anything touches live financial data.

AI agents for finance teams: what to build and where to start
Five finance workflows worth building as AI agents — month-end reporting, invoice triage, budget variance monitoring, expense review, and revenue forecasting. With human review gates designed in from the start.
Human in the loop and the autonomous agent problem
Why keeping humans in the loop matters even as agents grow more capable — how to design gates that protect high-stakes financial decisions without breaking the workflow.
AI agents need managers too
Governance is the infrastructure that makes AI agent delegation safe — defined scope, role-based access, audit trails, and human gates. Essential reading before any finance agent goes to production.
Model routing in multi-agent workflows
Matching each agent role to the right AI model based on capability, cost, and latency — critical for keeping finance automation economically viable at scale.
How to test an AI agent before deploying it
Test AI agents across isolation, tool integrations, handoffs, failure modes, and human gates — before anything touches live financial data.
How to design AI agents: a practical guide
The six design decisions that determine whether an AI agent system works — applicable to every finance workflow from reporting to AP automation.
