For CFOs and finance leaders who run lean

Model less. Decide more.

The problem

Your responsibilities are full-time. Your time is not.

Every quarter, you rebuild a budget from a file you last touched six months ago. Every board meeting, you reconcile the business plan from the fundraising with the actuals that lived in a different spreadsheet. Every cash crunch question from the CEO lands when you're mid-way through another priority.

The time you spend rebuilding and reconciling is time you don't spend on the analysis that actually matters.

Layerz gives you a model structure that persists. Build the logic once. When actuals come in, the variances are already computed. When the CEO asks for three scenarios before Friday, you run them in one afternoon — not one week.

What Layerz changes

Rebuild less. Analyse more.

TodayWith Layerz
Rebuild the budget file every quarterDefine the structure once — update assumptions, not formulas
Business plan and actuals in separate filesSame model — plan, actuals, and variance in one structure
Scenarios mean copying the file and editingScenario layers on a shared structure — clean, independent, exportable
Board pack is a manual assemblyActuals import directly — reporting is a refresh, not a rebuild
Audit trail exists in no one's memoryEvery change logged with timestamp — defensible under any board review
Handover to a successor is a headacheStructured model with documented assumptions — someone else can read it
How it works
1

Define the structure with Claude

Describe the model to Claude in plain English — revenue drivers, cost lines, headcount, financing. Claude calls the Layerz MCP to build the typed structure, formulas, and dependencies.

2

Refresh actuals in conversation

When the month closes, hand Claude the accounting export or bank statements. Variances against the budget compute automatically — no manual reconciliation between files.

3

Run scenarios on demand

Ask Claude for an upside, a stress, a financing tweak. Each scenario is a layer over the shared structure. Export any one as a clean .xlsx.

4

Share without explaining

Tell Claude to export. Your board, your CEO, your investor opens a standard spreadsheet. They don't need a guide to read it.

Talk to your agent

One line. Claude does the rest.

  • build a 3-year SaaS budget with monthly granularity
  • refresh Q3 actuals and show variance vs budget
  • add a downside scenario at -15% revenue growth
  • export the board pack as a clean xlsx

Run these in any Claude session with the Layerz MCP installed.

For the CFO who runs lean

The recurring close is your highest-leverage operation.

When your time is split across priorities, the question is not whether you can build a good model. It is whether you can afford to rebuild it every time the assumptions change.

The recurring closing — monthly or quarterly — is the highest-leverage operation you run. The faster it runs, the more time you have for the work the board actually wants from you: scenario analysis, financing decisions, board preparation.

Layerz does not replace your judgment. It eliminates the mechanical work that sits between your judgment and the output.

What you can build

Useful from the first month.

Monthly cash flow that stays current

A cash flow model that updates when actuals come in — runway always live, no manual refresh.

Budget vs. actuals by cost center

A tracker your CEO can read without your commentary. Variance highlighted, narrative comes from the data.

Three-year business plan with scenarios

Base, upside, downside as separate layers — ready for the next fundraising or bank review.

Board-ready reporting pack

A board pack that assembles in an afternoon, not two days. Standard .xlsx the audit committee can open.

Your next close in an afternoon. Not two days.
