A working demonstration of how AI integration replaces hours of finance work with minutes. Three real workflows shown end-to-end with before/after data:

Transaction categorization. Messy bank/card transactions (wires, AMEX charges, vendor descriptions) auto-categorized, vendor-cleaned, and pivoted into a category summary. Manual: 2–3 hours for 200 transactions. AI-assisted: 5 minutes.

Investor commentary drafting. Raw quarterly performance data (NAV, returns, watchlist movement, pipeline) turned into polished investor letter copy. Manual: 1–2 hours of writing per quarter. AI-assisted: 10 minutes of editing.

Portfolio company summarization. Unstructured sponsor letters and press releases parsed into a structured tracking table with revenue, margins, leverage, and status flags. Manual: 30–45 min per company. AI-assisted: instant. The integrations are built INTO existing Excel workflows — no new tools for the team to learn. Two common patterns: copy/paste with Claude, or direct API integration via VBA / Office Scripts. The "after" sheets look like normal Excel because they are; AI just did the manual work. Illustrative samples built for portfolio purposes. Happy to scope an automation for your specific finance workflow.
