## The Problem

Quality-of-earnings work for Multi-State Payroll 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 Rippling

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 Rippling — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## Rippling Integration Approach

1. **Audit your Rippling configuration.** We map the specific Rippling objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your multi-state payroll practice.
2. **Build on the Rippling API or agent.** Integration happens inside Rippling — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Rippling with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
