The Problem

Quality-of-earnings work for Outsourced Finance targets starts with 18 months of trial balances and a dozen schedules that need normalization before any adjustment can be proposed.

What We Build in Fathom

AI standardizes TB data across periods, builds the QoE model, identifies add-backs with source-document evidence, and drafts the data-book — senior analysts focus on judgment calls, not reformatting. Purpose-built for teams running Fathom — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
