Reconciling ending balances is still the most painful part of month-end. Most of it happens outside the ERP, in spreadsheets matching brokerage statements, donation exports, payroll registers and POS batches back to the books. Then your auditor asks *how you got to that number*, and the answer lives in someone's spreadsheet.

In this session, **Alex Lee, co-founder and CEO of Truewind**, shares what finance teams at family offices, nonprofits and retailers are handing to AI agents at month-end. **Your team reviews the exceptions. The agents handle the rest.**

## **What you’ll take away:**

- Where your close time really goes, and which accounts are ready to hand to AI agents today
- How to set up review so your team only works the exceptions
- What an audit-ready workpaper looks like, and how flux analysis flags anomalies before your auditor does
- A reconciliation workpaper prompt template to use in your next close
