What is Savant Labs?

Savant Labs is an artificial intelligence (AI) workflow automation platform for enterprise finance, tax, and accounting teams. The platform automates repeatable workflows for financial close, reconciliations, tax provisions, data preparation, reporting, and related processes that often rely on spreadsheets, email, and manual data entry.

Savant processes data in a controlled environment and supports documented, repeatable workflows intended for audit-sensitive processes.

Key Capabilities

  • Model selection and deployment: Connects to Claude, Copilot, ChatGPT, and private large language models (LLMs) deployed in an organization’s environment. Organizations can select models, determine data-location requirements, and manage model usage.
  • Workflow creation: Users can describe a workflow in plain language or initiate a recurring process, such as a monthly reconciliation. Savant then creates an automated workflow with defined steps and controls.
  • Deterministic execution: AI agents execute defined logic and validation checkpoints so identical inputs are intended to produce consistent results.
  • Data extraction and preparation: Processes structured data and unstructured documents, including portable document format (PDF) files, scans, images, invoices, and enterprise resource planning (ERP) extracts.
  • Controls and documentation: Records workflow activity and data lineage from source systems to outputs. The platform includes audit trails, approval routing, version history, role-based access controls (RBAC), and evidence packages.
  • Exception review: Routes exceptions to human reviewers before downstream filing or reporting activities.
  • Integrations: Savant states that the platform includes more than 500 prebuilt connectors for ERPs, customer relationship management (CRM) systems, business intelligence (BI) tools, file storage, and email.

Audience & Use Cases

  • Audience: Enterprise finance, tax, accounting, and audit teams operating in regulated or control-intensive environments.
  • Use cases: Month-end and year-end close, financial reconciliations and tie-outs, tax provision preparation, state apportionment calculations, sales and use tax reconciliation, ERP data consolidation, intercompany accounting, multi-entity reporting, audit evidence preparation, and recurring reporting.

Technical Specifications

  • Controls: Segregation of duties, approval routing, user-activity logs, data lineage, and Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) controls.
  • Security: The vendor states that Savant holds SOC 2 Type II, SOC 1 Type II, and ISO 27001 certifications and supports single sign-on (SSO), Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), RBAC, private-cloud, and virtual private cloud (VPC) deployment options.

According to Savant Labs, Fortune 500 enterprises use the platform to identify errors before filing, maintain audit documentation, and reduce manual finance-data work.

We use Savant to automate reports that the operation needs, this reports needed to be as live as possible and since Power BI reporting does not have those direct connections to our data warehouse in snowflake Savant came in and saved us. We now have all of our automated reports, updates, emails programmed with Savant with the most up to date data, in addition, we can have dynamic filtering, do transformations to the data before it gets send, choose the format for this data, is really all over the place.

Pros

  • Automate repetitive task and reports
  • Connect to your data source for live data
  • it's very simple to use, create an analysis and automate it is really easy
  • all the different data sources is compatible with, even slack

Cons

  • Let the user implement HTML code to the automated emails
  • let you sync again with the data source when a new column is added without the need to re run the bot
  • dark theme.

Return on Investment

  • We can rely on Savant to reduce our capacity units from our power bi license by automating reports there
  • we don't have to worry about sending emails with new data all the time
  • We needed 2 people for our data pull request demand with Savant just 1 person can maintain the entire reporting system
