Clara · Your AI investigation partner
Meet Clara, Cetova’s AI assistant for report analysis. Review individual reports or related batches, surface changes worth investigating, and decide where to look next.
Start with a business question
A useful answer does more than repeat the total. It identifies where to look, explains the comparison, and separates what the report shows from what still needs checking.
01 · The reporting context
| Expense | Budget | Actual | Variance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Freight | $110,000 | $142,000 | +$32,000 |
| Other | $310,000 | $326,000 | +$16,000 |
| Total | $420,000 | $468,000 | +$48,000 |
Scope: one month, one business unit, actual versus budget. Positive variance indicates spending above budget.
02 · An investigation starting point
“Start with freight. It accounts for two-thirds of the over-budget result.”
Freight is $32,000 over budget out of a $48,000 total variance. That makes it the largest contributor in this report.
Review the supporting freight activity for timing, volume, or rate changes. The summary alone does not establish the cause—or whether the increase will recur.
A practical role in reporting
Summarize a report’s highlights and results that deserve attention, with the reporting context in view.
Analyze related report outputs for changes and patterns that merit a closer look.
Use suggested areas for investigation to focus the next question. Your team checks the evidence and interprets the result.
Human judgment stays central
Clara helps summarize and explore reporting results. Your team remains responsible for checking the source, confirming the scope, and deciding what the findings mean.
A changed number is a starting point—not proof of its cause. Treat AI-generated analysis as something to review, not automatic approval to act.
Request a Clara walkthrough focused on the reports your team reviews and the questions that keep coming back.
