Summary

  • Manual audits rely on Excel, email, and folders - work scatters, evidence drifts, and reviews take longer than they should.
  • Finspectors centralizes screening, explainable flags, structured evidence packets, and a unified review trail.
  • You keep auditor judgment while gaining speed, clarity, and consistency across engagements.

Frequently

Asked Questions

Does Finspectors replace auditor judgment?
Finspectors.ai

No. It is a triage and documentation layer; auditors still conclude on materiality, scope, and sign-off.

What about peer review?
Finspectors.ai

Reproducibility is the point: consistent rules, explainable flags, and complete logs support EQCR and inspection readiness.

We already use Excel templates. Why change?
Finspectors.ai

Templates help but are fragile at scale. A pipeline reduces hand-offs, context switching, and missing evidence.

Can we run Finspectors alongside email and folders?
Finspectors.ai

Yes. Many firms start by centralizing triage and evidence while keeping existing binders for planning forms—exporting packets back into familiar workpapers.

Where should manual teams start?
Finspectors.ai

Pilot one FSLI with parallel manual vs triage-first review; measure review time per 1k rows and rework rate before expanding.
