01The Challenge

A critical finance process living in a fragile spreadsheet

PageSuite's finance reporting depended on a manual routine that quietly consumed time and carried real risk. Around an hour every day went into looking up data and assembling it into spreadsheets and graphs by hand.

When directors needed to understand the numbers, they emailed finance, who stopped what they were doing to pull the answer together. The knowledge sat in one fragile place, the process was slow, and every report depended on someone being available to build it manually. None of this was the work PageSuite wanted its people spending their days on.

02The Solution

A system the business can simply ask

Clevera connected PageSuite's accounting system directly into an AI layer, plugging QuickBooks into Claude through MCP so the financial data became live and conversational rather than something a person had to fetch and format. Instead of building yet another static dashboard, Clevera built a system the directors can question directly and get answers from themselves.

The daily hour of manual lookup and chart-building was rebuilt as an automated routine, and the back-and-forth between directors and finance was replaced by self-service answers drawn straight from the live numbers. What would normally be a months-long development project was designed, built, and live in a matter of days, because the same person understood the business problem and built the solution end to end.

03The Results

Hours back, answers on demand

The hour-a-day reporting routine now runs on its own, returning around 250 hours a year to the team. Directors answer their own finance questions in the moment instead of waiting on an email thread.

Reporting that once meant manual data lookups and hand-built Excel graphs now happens automatically, drawn from a live connection to the accounts. The fragile, person-dependent process became a reliable system the business can lean on, delivered in days rather than months.
