Agentic AI Cash Flow Forecasting

A rolling 13-week cash forecast built bottom-up from receivables, payables, payroll and commitments, refreshed daily by agents, with every movement explained and every variance to actual traced to its driver.

The problem

What this workflow costs today.

01Forecasts built in spreadsheets

Treasury collects files from every entity each week, and the forecast is stale before it is consolidated.

02Receipts are guesses

Customer payment timing is assumed from terms, not from how each customer actually pays.

03Surprises at month-end

Large payments, covenant headroom and funding gaps are seen late, when options are expensive.

04No learning loop

Forecast versus actual is rarely reconciled, so the same errors repeat every cycle.

Three horizons, one position

From today's balance to week thirteen.

Daily position, 13-week forecast and scenarios share one set of cash drivers.

How it works

The AiX™ loop, applied end to end.

Every agent follows the same five steps, so behaviour is predictable and every step leaves evidence.

1
Observe

Bank balances, open AR and AP, payroll, tax calendar, capex, loan schedules, POs and FX rates.

2
Reason

Predicts receipt and payment timing line by line and consolidates by entity, bank and currency.

3
Decide

Identifies funding gaps, idle cash and covenant pressure, and ranks the options to act.

4
Act

Publishes the daily 13-week forecast, alerts treasury on thresholds and prepares funding scenarios.

5
Learn

Reconciles forecast to actual every day and improves each customer and vendor pattern.

The agent team

Specialist agents, separated by duty.

No single agent both proposes and approves. Each one has a narrow job, its own tools and its own permissions.

Receipts Agent

Predicts collection timing per customer from payment behaviour, disputes and open items.

Payments Agent

Schedules outflows from AP, payroll, tax, capex and debt service, including committed POs.

Cash Position Agent

Consolidates bank balances and forecasts by entity and currency, and flags funding gaps.

Variance Agent

Compares forecast to actual each day, explains the gap by driver and recalibrates.

Authentic AI at the centre

Autonomy you can govern, trace and control.

Speed comes from autonomy. Trust comes from the three things around it. This is how each is designed into Agentic AI Cash Flow Forecasting.

Autonomy

Forecasting, consolidation and variance analysis run daily without prompting; moving money never does.

Governance

Cash policy, minimum balances, covenant limits and entity hierarchies are encoded and owned by treasury.

Traceability

Every forecast line links to the invoice, payroll run or contract that created it, and every change is versioned.

Control

Treasury sets thresholds and approves every funding action, and can override any line with a recorded reason.

AiX™Authentic AIExplainable, traceable, reconcilable
Autonomy bands

What the agent does alone, and what it never does.

Bands are agreed with the business before go-live and widened only on evidence from the pilot.

  • Agents never initiate payments or transfers
  • Funding and hedging decisions stay with the CFO
  • Bank connectivity is read-only
  • Every override needs a reason code and owner
Outcomes & measurement

Every metric has a baseline and a method.

Success metrics are agreed before build and signed off with the client after the pilot.

Pilot results are company-reported and engagement-specific. Figures and names in decision records are illustrative.

How we deliver

The A.G.E.N.T. Method.

Agentic process reengineering, one workflow at a time.

AAudit

Map how the workflow really runs today, with owners, data lineage and the tacit rules.

GGauge

Agree the business outcome, the baseline and the success metrics before build.

EEngineer

Redesign for agent-first execution: agents, tools, rules and autonomy bands.

NNavigate

Pilot inside your controls, train owners and move bands only on evidence.

TTrack

Measure against the baseline and report the result the business signed off.

Start with one workflow, one agent and one measurable result.

Book a working session with our team in Dubai, Riyadh or the UK. We will map the workflow, agree the metric and show the agent running on data like yours.
