Numeric

Numeric runs the month-end close as one workspace instead of a shared spreadsheet and a checklist. Tasks have owners, due dates, and a preparer-then-reviewer flow, so a controller can see at a glance what is done, what is in review, and what is stuck.

The reconciliation engine is the core. Numeric pulls live balances from the ledger, matches transactions automatically, and flags the items that need a human. AI parses bank statements into structured data, and flux analysis compares this period against last so unexpected movements surface early rather than at review.

An AI assistant sits alongside the close to answer technical accounting questions and draft explanations, which is most useful for a junior preparer writing up a flux note or a reviewer checking a treatment. The assistant suggests, the accountant decides.

Pricing starts at about $30 per user per month on the Essentials plan, which covers task management and review roles. Auto-reconciliation, AI statement parsing, flux analysis, transaction monitoring, and SSO sit in the Growth and Enterprise tiers, both quoted on request. There is no free tier.

Numeric connects to NetSuite, QuickBooks Online, Xero, and Sage Intacct, plus thousands of banks for statement data, and uses Slack for close notifications. It suits small and mid-sized accounting teams that run a real close with review steps, and it runs a partner programme for firms that close books for clients.
