Month-end close still takes most teams 5 to 10 business days of reconciliation, reporting, and chasing down documentation. Cowork handles the repetitive parts: journal entries, variance analysis, financial statements, invoice processing, and audit prep.
Powered by Claude Cowork. Set up by NYC Claw.
Your team is spending most of its time on work that's mechanical, not analytical.
Reconciling bank statements, matching transactions, posting journal entries, generating reports. The same sequence every month. Your team knows the steps by heart, but each one still requires manual effort. The close stretches across a week or more because the volume of repetitive work is too high for the headcount.
Every vendor sends invoices in a different format. PDFs, emails, scanned documents. Someone on your team has to open each one, extract the vendor name, date, amount, and line items, then enter it all into a spreadsheet or accounting system. Different formats mean different errors. Missing fields get caught late.
Budget vs. actual reporting takes hours to compile. Pulling data from multiple sources, calculating variances, writing narrative explanations for significant differences. By the time the report reaches leadership, the month is already over. The analysis that should drive decisions becomes a retrospective exercise.
When auditors come knocking, your team scrambles to gather documentation from scattered systems. Supporting schedules live in one place, source documents in another, workpapers in a third. Cross-referencing everything takes weeks. Every audit cycle, someone says "we should organize this better," and every year it's the same scramble.
These are real workflows running in finance teams today, not concept demos.
Cowork reads bank statements, matches transactions to GL accounts, and flags discrepancies for review. One user built a GnuCash MCP and now does books for a few small businesses in minutes. We configure the same approach for your accounting stack.
Cowork connects to Snowflake, BigQuery, or Databricks, pulls the numbers, and generates formatted income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements. You review the output instead of building spreadsheets from scratch every period.
Budget vs. actual reporting with narrative explanations of significant variances. Cowork pulls the data, calculates the differences, and writes the commentary. Schedule it monthly so reports are ready on the first business day, not the tenth.
Cowork compiles documentation, cross-references supporting schedules, and organizes workpapers by audit section. When auditors request a schedule, you run a command instead of digging through folders. The documentation is structured and consistent every time.
Cowork extracts key fields from invoices in any format: vendor name, date, amount, line items. It compiles everything into a master billing spreadsheet, handles varying layouts across vendors, and flags missing fields before they become problems downstream.
Automated recurring revenue reports that pull from Stripe on a schedule. MRR, churn, expansion revenue, cohort analysis. The numbers land in your Slack channel or inbox before your morning coffee. No one has to remember to run the report.
Every setup is configured for your team's specific accounting stack, reporting cadence, and internal workflows.
We don't hand you a generic AI tool. We configure Cowork specifically for how your finance operation runs.
Skills are reusable commands that encode your team's specific processes. We build custom skills for your reconciliation workflow, your close checklist, your reporting templates, and your variance thresholds. Your entire team runs the same commands and gets consistent output that matches your standards.
Cowork includes the /finance plugin for financial analysis and reporting. We also configure additional plugins based on your accounting software and data sources, so Cowork has the right context when your team asks questions about the numbers.
We connect Cowork to the tools your team already uses: Snowflake, Databricks, and BigQuery for data warehousing; Slack for team communication; Microsoft 365 for email and collaboration. Cowork pulls data from where it lives instead of requiring manual exports.
Set up recurring workflows that run without anyone touching them: daily reconciliation checks, weekly Stripe revenue reports, monthly variance analysis, and close checklist status updates. Cowork runs these on schedule and delivers results to your team's Slack channel or email.
