Capabilities · Period close

Period close automation that assembles itself, with receipts

Rever sequences the close checklist itself, drafts accruals that arrive balanced, and cites every flux sentence to its transactions. Sign-off stays blocked while anything material is open, and approval stays human: journals post only with your OK.

Read-only connection in an afternoon. The zero-day scan returns first findings within four hours.

Why manual period close breaks at mid-market volume

A growing company carries thousands of monthly transactions into every close, across entities, bank accounts, and processors. At that volume, the month-end approach fails in predictable ways.

  • Reconciliations that could have cleared all month land on day one, so the close starts behind
  • The checklist is a spreadsheet whose real status is whatever the last person to update it remembered
  • Accruals are rebuilt from scratch each period, because last period's support is scattered
  • Flux is explained from memory, without the transactions that would settle the question
  • Sign-off lands under deadline pressure, and audit support is assembled weeks later

Rever close — checklist and evidence

What makes Rever different

Continuous, not a deadline

Rever works the close all month. Reconciliations clear as transactions land, accruals draft as their support arrives, and the period ends with the work already assembled.

Every flux sentence cites its transactions

An explanation is a claim. Rever backs each sentence of the narrative with the transactions that produced the movement, one click deep. Numbers you cannot trace are opinions.

Sign-off that waits for the evidence

Sign-off stays blocked while anything material is open, and only a human lifts a freeze. The period closes when the evidence says so.

Approval-first, by construction

Agents prepare entries; only humans post them. Write permission does not exist in agent runtimes. Preparer is never approver, and every decision replays from the append-only trail.

The staff on this job

Rever is a department of governed agents, each with a charter, hard budgets, and a public track record. Three of them run this capability.

Agent

Close Orchestrator

Sequences the close and blocks sign-off while anything material is open. Tasks reorder as work completes, and each carries the evidence that finished it.

Agent

Journal

Drafts accruals and correcting entries, balanced and re-added before you see them. Nothing posts until an approver who is not the preparer says yes.

Agent

Flux Analyst

Explains every material movement in plain English, each sentence cited to the transactions behind it. The narrative arrives drafted, ready for your review.

Period close automation FAQ

What is period close automation?

Software that sequences the month-end checklist continuously, attaches evidence as each task completes, drafts the accruals, and writes the flux narrative with citations. It replaces a deadline scramble with a close that is already assembled when the period ends.

How does Rever shorten the close?

By moving the work off the deadline. Reconciliations clear continuously, accruals draft as their support lands, and the flux narrative writes itself with citations. Day one starts at judgment: the material items, their owners, and your sign-off. That is a 3.0 day close, from 6.4.

Will Rever post entries to my general ledger automatically?

No. Agents prepare entries, humans approve them, and only approved entries reach the ledger. Write permission does not exist in agent runtimes, so autonomous posting is structurally impossible, not just switched off.

Which banks and ERPs does Rever connect to?

Bank feeds, Stripe, Microsoft Dynamics 365, QuickBooks, and NetSuite are live. HubSpot and Rippling are shipping soon, with Intacct next. Every plan includes every connector we ship.

How long does implementation take?

Connection is read-only and typically done in an afternoon. The zero-day scan then runs across your trailing four quarters and returns first findings within four hours, each with evidence attached.

Is my financial data used to train AI models?

Never. Not with consent, not in aggregate. What agents learn from your books serves your tenancy only, and self-hosted deployment is available for teams that keep everything inside their own perimeter.
