The problem
The answers are already in your documents. Nobody has the time to find them.
A mid-sized company produces thousands of invoices, statements, contracts and reports every year. The finance team is already at capacity closing the month. So nobody checks whether the same part got more expensive, whether an invoice arrived twice, or whether the profit in the report ever reached the bank account. Small leaks stay open for years, and every question from management means another afternoon of searching.
One question a week, one afternoon each. That is fifty afternoons a year of your best finance person, spent looking instead of thinking. And the questions nobody asked stay unanswered.
The knowledge is there. It is just spread across 4,000 files.
For the finance team
This is not an audit of you.
pascal does the digging you never have time for. When the owner asks why the margin dropped, you have the answer and the invoices behind it in a minute, not on Friday. You stop being the person who has to find the file. You become the person who already knows.
Everything pascal does, a good controller can do in Excel. It takes three days per question, and nobody repeats it next month. pascal takes a minute, repeats it every month, and shows the document behind every figure so the judgement stays yours.
Nothing changes in how you book or close the month.
pascal reads what you already produce. You never retype anything.
Every figure it shows, you can check in one click. Every table exports to Excel with the links intact.
pascal never posts, never sends, never decides. Nothing reaches the bank, the auditor or the board unless you opened the source and chose to use it.
The controller stops building tables and starts explaining them to the board.
A real case
€15,000
lost on screws.
Our client, a German manufacturer, buys the same small components month after month. Over two years the price for the very same screws crept above what the supplier contract allowed. Nobody noticed, because every single invoice looked normal on its own.
“What did we pay per piece for this part over the last two years?”
pascal put all 24 purchases side by side and linked every price to its invoice. The difference added up to about €15,000 on one of the smallest parts in the plant. One part number out of 4,000, and it was the first one we looked at. With the evidence in hand, the client renegotiated within a week.
Price per piece, 24 purchasesIllustration
Price agreed in the contractPaid above it
Small parts. Real money. That is what pascal finds, every month, in every folder you give it.
What changes
Your team stops searching and starts deciding.
Time
Hours back every week
A question that used to mean an afternoon in folders now takes a minute. Before a supplier meeting you ask what you paid over two years and walk in with the facts.
Certainty
Figures you can defend
Every amount is cross-checked before it is used, and the document behind it is one click away. When the bank, the auditor or the board asks, you show the source instead of explaining.
Attention
Nothing slips through
Duplicate invoices, creeping prices, overdue receivables, totals that do not match: pascal catches what an overloaded team simply cannot, and tells you when a document is missing instead of guessing.
An ordinary week, before and after
TodayWith pascal
The report shows a profit, the account looks empty, and nobody can say why.
You see how much of the profit reached the bank, and where the rest went.
Before a supplier meeting, someone spends a day collecting invoices.
You ask what you paid over two years and walk in with the facts.
The same invoice arrives twice and nobody sees it.
pascal flags the duplicate before it is paid.
Two plants pay different prices for the same service, and nobody compares.
Cost per site, side by side, with the contract behind the difference.
Finding a notice period means opening contract after contract.
pascal quotes the exact clause from the right contract.
Month-end closes, and you still are not sure the three views of receivables agree.
Subledger, ledger account and cash flow are reconciled, and the differences are listed.
What you get, and when
After you say yes: the first week, the first month, the first quarter.
No vision slides. This is what lands on your desk, and when.

One meeting where we go through it together, line by line
Your time: 30 minutes for the kick-off call, 60 minutes for the review meeting. That is all.
In practice
You open a PDF. Page 2 says you paid €0.27 for a part that cost €0.19 nine months earlier, and the invoice is one click away. You forward it to purchasing before the meeting ends.
Within the first month
One department asks questions instead of searching
Every new file in the folder is read and calculated within minutes, without anyone doing anything
Up to 5 people ask any question in a sentence, in English, German or Polish, and get the figure plus the source
Duplicates, double payments and figures that do not match are flagged the day they appear
A weekly summary of what changed and what pascal flagged, in your inbox
In practice
Tuesday, 9:10. The owner asks what the top five suppliers cost this year versus last. By 9:12 the finance lead has the table and the invoices, and has already seen that one supplier grew 38 %.
Within the first quarter
Management sees the whole group in figures that agree
All areas and all companies in one place: purchasing, receivables, cash, contracts, and the DATEV reports behind them
Who owes whom how much inside the group, with the intercompany invoices taken out
Profit in the report versus cash in the bank, reconciled, with the differences listed
Costs per site and per category, side by side, from the actual invoices
HR documents in their own area that only the people you choose can open
A quarterly review with us: what pascal found, what it could not read, what to add next
In practice
Board meeting. Someone asks why the German company is profitable and the group is not. The answer, with the three intercompany invoices that explain it, is on the screen before the coffee arrives.
Each step is yours to take or leave. Most clients take the next one because the previous one raised the question.
Sound familiar?
Which of these have you thought this month?
Pick your role. On the left, a thought you have probably had. On the right, the question pascal answers, in plain English, German or Polish, with the documents to prove it.

For controlling and finance
The questions you would ask if you had three analysts and a week.
Every question below takes a controller days in Excel, if the data can be pulled at all. pascal answers each one in a minute, across all companies, with the invoice, statement or contract behind every figure. You read the answer. You decide what it means.
01
“Is money leaking somewhere, and where?”
Every supplier where the unit price of the same item rose faster than the contract allows, every invoice that arrived twice, every payment without an invoice, every recurring charge nobody ordered this year. Summed by company and by month.
02
“Why does the P&L show a profit while the bank account does not?”
Last year's operating profit reconciled to the change in cash: receivables that grew, stock bought, loans repaid, intercompany invoices still unpaid, tax prepaid. Each bridge item with its documents.
03
“Which costs are highest in which subsidiary, and where could we realistically save?”
Cost per employee, per square metre and per unit produced, by category, for each company side by side. Categories where one site pays more than 15 % above the others, with the invoices.
04
“Are we actually getting the prices we negotiated?”
Every invoice line from this supplier against the price list in the framework contract. Every deviation, the amount and the month it started.
05
“Which customers cost us more than they bring?”
Revenue per customer minus credit notes, returns, discounts, late-payment days and the cost of reminders. The ten customers with the lowest real margin.
06
“Which fixed costs grew, and who signed them?”
All fixed costs by month for 24 months, the five lines that grew most, the contract behind each and its notice period.
07
“What do we owe each other inside the group, and does it balance?”
Every intercompany invoice, open on both sides, matched. The differences, and which side has the missing document.
08
“Are we paying for licences, subscriptions or leases we no longer use?”
Every recurring charge for 12 months, the contract behind it, end date and notice period, and whether the same service is paid twice across companies.
09
“Can we pay salaries and suppliers for the next 60 days?”
Cash by account today, everything falling due by date, expected receipts based on each customer's actual payment behaviour, and the day the balance turns negative.
10
“What did last year's audit questions cost us in hours?”
All documents for any account, period and counterparty, in one list, with links. This year: minutes.
If your controller could answer all ten before lunch, you do not need pascal. If not, start with the one that worries you most.
Try it yourself
Click through the application, filled with a fictional group's documents.
The demo is the pascal application itself, loaded with the invoices, statements and contracts of a fictional group of companies. Ask one of the prepared questions, open an invoice, check where a figure comes from, find the gap the system reports. The answers were prepared in advance, so the demo runs in your browser and nothing you type is sent anywhere. The real system answers any question you ask.
Start with one folder. Decide when you have seen the proof.
Three steps. Each one answers the question the previous one raised. You never commit to the next step in advance, and every step includes read-only access, three access levels and a full audit trail.
Step 1 · Proof
“Does this even work on my files?”
First folder
1 folder, 1 type of document, for example purchase invoices
3 questions we agree on together, on a 30-minute call
A report with the results and links to your documents
1 meeting to go through the results together
Your time: 90 minutes in total
7 working days from access to report
€2,500 one-off
Credited toward step 2 if you continue within 60 days.
All document types of one area: purchasing and suppliers, receivables and payments, finance and cash, or contracts
New files are read automatically within minutes of landing in the folder
Unlimited questions, a workspace for up to 5 people
Duplicates, double payments and figures that do not match are flagged without being asked
Starts 2 to 3 weeks after you say yes
€1,500–2,500 per month
Plus a one-time setup of €3,000–6,000, depending on document types and volume. A further area is a fixed surcharge, not a second subscription.
Step 3 · Control
“Do I see the whole truth about the company, not just one department?”
pascal for the group
All areas and all companies of the group, in one place, in figures that agree
Consolidation between companies: who owes whom how much, with the intercompany invoices taken out
Costs per site and category, side by side
An HR area with its own, separate access
A dedicated contact and a quarterly review with management
First area live after 3 weeks, everything within 12 to 16 weeks
€5,000–8,000 per month
Plus a one-time implementation of €12,000–20,000. A further company is a fixed surcharge, not a new project.
After step 1 most people ask: “Can it do this by itself, every month?” After step 2: “Can I see our second company in this?” That is the whole path. Nobody has to decide on step 3 to start step 1.
Safe by design
Your files stay where they are. Here is exactly what leaves, and where it goes.
pascal never changes, moves or deletes a file. It reads your documents where they already are, in your own SharePoint or OneDrive, with read-only access that your Microsoft 365 administrator grants and can withdraw at any time. Before you share anything, you know exactly what pascal sees and what it does with it.
What you share
Read-only access to the folders you choose, and nothing else. Sign-in with your company Microsoft account; roles come from Entra ID.
What pascal sees
Only the documents in those folders. To answer your questions it reads their content and keeps the extracted figures in its own database on Microsoft Azure, in the EU. The text is processed by Anthropic's Claude models under a data processing agreement. We name every subprocessor in writing before you start.
What pascal never does
It never changes, moves or deletes a file. It never posts an entry. It never sends a figure to anyone outside your team. Documents with sensitive personal data are locked and left out of the analysis.
Included in every step
Read-only
pascal cannot write to your systems.
Three access levels
Business, HR and restricted. The database enforces them, so no clever question gets around them.
Full audit trail
You always see who ran what, and when.
Before the first call
What people ask us first
Do our files leave the company?
The files themselves stay in your SharePoint or OneDrive and are never changed. To answer your questions, pascal reads their content: the extracted figures are stored in a database on Microsoft Azure, and the text is processed by Anthropic's Claude models. We name every subprocessor in writing before you start, and your administrator can withdraw access at any time.
We already have DATEV, Excel and a good tax adviser. Why pascal?
They show you the totals. pascal goes down to the single invoice, the single bank line and the single clause, across all your documents and all your companies at once, and it finds the things nobody thought to ask about. Your BWA tells you costs went up. pascal tells you which supplier, which part, which month, which site, and shows you the invoice.
Does our accounting team have to work differently?
No. pascal reads what your team already produces. Nobody retypes anything, no process changes, and nobody needs training beyond asking a question in a sentence.
Our documents are a mess: scans, handwritten invoices, three systems, two currencies.
That is the normal case. Our first client runs two companies in two countries with documents from several systems and in two languages. pascal reads what it can read and reports what it cannot, by document and by month, instead of guessing. Mixed currencies and languages are standard. The first report tells you honestly how much of your folder is usable.
What if the AI gets something wrong?
Every figure links to the document it came from, so you check it in one click. Dozens of control views check that totals reconcile before a figure is shown. If a page could not be read, pascal reports it as missing instead of guessing. Most accounting reports are read deterministically, without any AI at all.
Who is responsible if a figure is wrong and we act on it?
You are, and that is by design. pascal prepares the analysis and shows its sources; a person reads them and decides. It never posts an entry, never sends a figure outside your team and never acts on its own. Nothing reaches your bank, your auditor or your board that one of your people has not opened and chosen to use.
Who can see salaries and HR documents?
Only the people you allow. Access is split into business, HR and restricted, and the database itself enforces the split, so no cleverly worded question gets around it. Documents with sensitive personal data are locked by default.
Will pascal replace our people?
No. The controller stops building tables and starts explaining them to the board. The accountant stops hunting for files and starts closing the month earlier. pascal does not post entries and does not replace your accountant, your tax adviser or your ERP.
Should we hire a controller instead?
If nobody reads your numbers today, yes, hire one. pascal is what that person uses from day one. A controller with pascal spends the week on analysis instead of on collecting, because the pulling and cross-checking is already done when they sit down.
We are not an IT company. Is this a big project?
No. Step 1 needs one thing from you: read-only access to one folder, granted by your Microsoft 365 administrator in about ten minutes. Seven working days later you have the report. Further areas are added later without a new rollout.
Will the costs run out of control?
No. The subscription is a fixed monthly amount. Inside the system, paid AI operations are marked and capped per conversation and per day, and you see who ran what.
Can we take the results into our own models?
Yes. Every table exports to Excel with the document links intact, so your controller's own model keeps its sources.
What do we have to give you to start?
Read-only access to one folder, three questions you want answered, and 30 minutes of your time for the kick-off call. That is all.
Why does the group step cost more than adding a second company?
Because the group step is not more of the same. It reconciles between companies, takes the intercompany invoices out, puts costs per site side by side, adds a separate HR area and a quarterly review with management. Adding a second company to an existing group setup is a fixed surcharge.
What happens in the first conversation?
You tell us where your team loses the most time or money. We agree three questions pascal should answer first and send you a fixed offer for step 1. No slides, no pressure. If pascal finds nothing useful in your folder, you know after one week and €2,500, not after a six-month project.
Who is behind pascal
Built by people who have closed a month-end themselves.
pascal is developed by IMTO Software, based in Wrocław, Poland. Grzegorz Palmer, the founder, built pascal after watching finance teams lose weeks every year to questions their own documents could answer. The first client, a German manufacturer, uses it every day.
Your first folder. One week. A report you can check line by line.
Tell us which folder costs you the most time. On a 30-minute call we agree three questions and send you a fixed offer. Seven working days after access, you have the answers, each linked to its document.
Your request has been sent.
Thank you. We have received it and reply within one working day to agree a time for the call. We will write to:
