ALPHA WRENCH

AI for finance builders

The model reads. The code checks.

Free lessons and ready-to-run blueprints for finance and accounting teams putting AI to work, built so every number the model touches is verified before anyone signs off.

Free 20-lesson course

AI for Finance Builders

Each lesson opens on AI output that looks right and isn't, then builds the Python checks that catch it. Every lesson comes with a free workbook: data, scripts, five graded exercises and the answer key.

AI Board Briefings That Cite Every Number: Chain-of-Verification

A briefing that cites a source in almost every sentence still hides eight errors. Trace every claim to a computed fact.

The method

Every build follows the same three moves

Language models are good readers and unreliable calculators. So the work is split: the model extracts and drafts, deterministic code does the maths, and a gate decides what a human needs to look at.

Extract

The model reads invoices, reports and ledgers into a strict schema, quoting values exactly as printed.

Check

Python recomputes every total, rate and variance, and traces every claim back to its source.

Gate

Only clean output moves on. Anything that breaks a rule is flagged for review, with the reason attached.
