Definite handles the plumbing. Your team does the analysis.
Most finance teams run the close across a stack of systems that hide context from each other. Definite maps those systems into one connected model that your team, its dashboards, and its agents all work from.
Match balances across ledgers, billing, and bank data, investigate breaks, and assemble support with every source still visible.
Explore reconciliationExplain variances by tracing results back to the records and drivers behind them, not to a summary someone typed in.
Explore FP&ATwo conferences explain most of it. One line item stays open.
Connect commercial terms, invoices, payments, and ledger entries so billing, cash, and customer discrepancies surface with their evidence.
Explore billingValidate reporting populations, collect evidence, and keep unsupported items explicit instead of buried in a workbook.
Explore taxUnresolved items stay explicit until the evidence lands.
Illustrative values, shown only to explain each workflow.
How one item moves from three sources to one recorded decision, with the rule your team chose doing the deciding.
Two aligned sources agree. Billing differs by $400 and stays visible.
Configured rules decide whether the item can proceed. Models only propose.
Preparer and approver stay separate, and the source records never change.
Every figure opens to its source record, field, or file cell, with a provenance label.
Every figure keeps its source lineage, every run can be reproduced, and language models never calculate or approve a result.
Each run is sealed with its inputs, mappings, rules, parameters, results, and review decisions. A prior period can be rebuilt as it appeared at the time.
Definite runs as a hosted service, in your cloud or VPC, on premises, or air-gapped. Connection setup rejects credentials that can write to a source system.
Straight answers about what Definite does, and what it leaves to your systems and your team.
It is a structured model of your company's finance data: the entities, definitions, relationships, calculations, and source lineage that tie records across systems together. Chat, workflows, and agents use this model as shared context.
No. Definite collects and maps the data needed for the ontology without changing the records stored in those systems.
Definite keeps every competing value visible and applies the resolution rule configured for that workflow. Your team can choose source priority, corroboration across aligned sources, or mandatory review. If the rule cannot support one answer, Definite leaves the item unresolved. An authorized reviewer can approve or override a proposed value without changing any source record.
No. Models can propose mappings, matches, and explanations, but deterministic rules perform calculations, matching, thresholds, and validations. People approve decisions when the workflow requires it.
No. Definite sits above the systems your team already uses. Those systems continue storing the source data, while the ontology maps how records and concepts relate across them.
Teams can use dashboards with drill-down, chat in Definite, the agent and workflow builder, APIs, and existing BI tools. Finance can also turn an SOP into an initial agent draft and refine its rules and review steps. Each interface pulls from the same ontology and source lineage.
We start by learning the workflow and mapping the systems behind it with your finance and technical stakeholders. We configure the connectors that fit, build the connections that are missing, and shape the ontology around your definitions and review process.
Definite supports hosted, customer cloud, VPC, on-premises, and air-gapped deployments. The deployment model is selected with your security and technical teams.
No. Definite is configured around each company's systems, data model, definitions, and workflow. The ontology provides a common structure without forcing every finance team into the same template.
