Quick Answer — What are AI agents for finance?Cube is a spreadsheet-native FP&A platform with Cube AI for natural language querying, automated variance analysis, and conversational analytics via Slack and Teams. It keeps finance teams in Excel and Google Sheets while adding AI-powered analysis on top — best for mid-market teams wanting faster time-to-value than traditional FP&A platforms.
This FP&A platform requires implementation support and data preparation. It is designed for finance teams with dedicated budgets — not for individuals or very small businesses. AI can project trends but cannot decide which scenarios matter or how to translate numbers into business actions.

Cube is a spreadsheet-native FP&A platform that adds an AI-powered planning layer on top of Excel and Google Sheets without requiring finance teams to abandon their existing spreadsheets. Cube AI enables natural language financial querying — ask questions about your financial data and get instant answers without building pivot tables. The platform automates variance analysis, maintains rolling forecasts, and coordinates budget collection from department heads. A standout feature is conversational analytics via Slack and Microsoft Teams, where finance stakeholders can ask financial questions in chat and receive data-backed answers. Cube connects to QuickBooks, NetSuite, Salesforce, HubSpot, Rippling, and Workday, pulling data into a governed financial data model. Cube is strongest for mid-market finance teams (typically under $100M revenue) that want faster time-to-value than traditional FP&A platforms and want to keep working in spreadsheets they already know.
