What is automated, where AI helps, who signs off
Automation for the routine. A person on every decision that matters.
The reliable spine
The reliable spine is the vetted number set: utilization, realization, margin, spend and pipeline, each defined and computed by rule, so every answer is sourced and traceable back to the figures it used. The arithmetic is fixed; the box does not invent a number.
Where AI helps
AI only translates the plain-English question into the right pre-built query over that vetted set and shows which figures it used and from where. It never queries the raw systems freely and never produces a figure the spine has not already computed.
Who signs off
A named person signs off anything touching money, stock, a customer promise, a regulated filing, a payment, a price, a credit decision or a people decision.
