How AI Supports Analysis, Simulations, and Forecasts in Controlling

Analyzing key metrics, understanding variances, modeling scenarios, and adjusting forecasts to changing conditions: AI opens up new possibilities for finance and controlling teams to move more quickly from data to reliable insights and decisions.

celver and Board will demonstrate exactly how this works on November 25, 2026, at 10 a.m. In a live demo, you’ll see three specific use cases right in Board and learn how AI supports analysis in the context of your financial planning, makes scenarios and their implications transparent, and enhances forecasts by incorporating relevant external factors.

What you can expect in the webinar:  

  • Analyses with the FP&A Agent Dashboard: See how AI analyzes financial data within the context of the planning model, investigates variances, and highlights relevant drivers—enabling finance teams to quickly understand what has changed and why.
  • ‍Scenarios with the FP&A Agent dashboard: See how you can model different assumptions and scenarios and assess their financial impact. This enables controllers to compare options and trade-offs more quickly and make more informed decisions.
  • ‍Forecasting with Board Foresight: Learn how external market and economic signals can be linked to internal planning data. This allows you to identify relevant external factors early on and incorporate them into forecasts and scenarios. ‍
  • Three real-world examples live in the system: See firsthand in Board how analysis, scenario modeling, and forecasting work together—and how Continuous Planning helps Finance respond more quickly to changing conditions.

Learn how AI-powered planning can help finance and controlling teams anticipate changes sooner, evaluate scenarios more quickly, and make decisions with greater confidence. Sound interesting? Then join us:
