Ever opened a deck your AI Tools built and found the numbers went wrong three steps back?

Watching every AI pilot on your FP&A team stall out before anything ships?

Tired of being the only person in the room asking who actually checked this?

Mike came back from his yearly AI conference with a pattern he did not expect, because talk after talk was about AI not working, and the reason kept tracing back to the same thing: nobody checking the information going in. He fixes it the way companies approve big spending, with named people at set points who can each stop the whole thing. He calls them gates. Every AI process needs three. Built for finance pros and any FP&A team putting AI Tools into real work. He goes to that same conference every year.
