Cash Flow Forecasting Agent

The Cash Flow Forecasting Agent pulls data from your ERP, CRM, bank statements and contracts to model future inflows and outflows in rand, including SARS payment dates for VAT, PAYE and provisional tax. It gives you the clarity to manage liquidity and make better capital decisions.

Ideal forTreasury teams

The difference

From 3-5 days to 15 minutes

Treasury can refresh the forecast whenever conditions change and spend its time on funding and investment decisions rather than building spreadsheets.

Indicative figures. We measure your own baseline in the first fortnight so the numbers you see are yours.

Volatility demands a rolling view

Interest rate moves and rand swings change the cash picture quickly. A forecast you can refresh in minutes lets you act on the latest position rather than last month's.

SARS dates built in

VAT, PAYE and provisional tax payments are large and fixed. The agent models them automatically so they never catch treasury off guard.

Early warning on covenants

The forecast is tested against your bank facility covenants, giving you time to act before a projected breach becomes a conversation with your lender.

Capabilities

A clear, rolling view of your rand cash position, updated in minutes.

Built for CFOs, treasurers and financial directors of South African businesses.

Automated data aggregation

Pulls data from your ERP (SAP, Sage, Syspro, Dynamics 365), CRM and bank statement files into one consolidated forecast, without manual exports.

Inflow and outflow modelling

Projects receipts from debtors ageing and sales pipelines, and payments from creditors, payroll, PAYE, VAT201, provisional tax and contract data.

Scenario and sensitivity analysis

Models scenarios such as a late customer payment, a weaker rand, a repo rate move or a pulled-forward capex payment, and shows the impact on cash.

Covenant and liquidity monitoring

Tracks liquidity ratios and bank facility covenants against the forecast and warns early when a breach is projected.

Direct and indirect method support

Supports the direct method for short-term treasury forecasts and the indirect method from profit, in line with IAS 7 presentation.

Custom reporting and dashboards

Delivers the forecast into your Excel model, a PDF pack for the board or a Power BI dashboard.

How it works

From your systems to a result you sign off

Your treasurer or FD reviews the assumptions and approves the forecast, and any payment or funding decision remains with your team and your bank's approval flow.

Deployment

Runs inside the tools your team already uses

The same agent and the same cited output, delivered three ways: through the AI assistant you have rolled out, on a model you host yourself, or inside your own software.

Model Context Protocol

In the frontier assistant you already pay for

We publish the agent as an MCP server. Add it as a connector and your team calls it from the chat they use every day, with no new tool to learn.
