What is AI-powered collaboration at Cube?

AI-powered collaboration means connecting AI, finance professionals, and their business team members to form a true partnership.

  • AI accelerates manual analysis, surfaces insights instantly, and keeps information flowing across teams.
  • People bring critical thinking, strategic judgment, and business context to decision-making.

This way, finance can spend less time wrestling spreadsheets and chasing down data, and more time leading the business forward.

How Cube enables intelligent collaboration

Here’s how Cube empowers finance teams to collaborate with their teammates using AI every day:

Context matters

Cube’s AI Analyst is embedded directly into the tools finance already knows, like Slack and Teams. This lets users chat within familiar, contextual workflows blended with the team’s own data, financial models, and scenarios. No need to switch systems or sacrifice nuance.

Accuracy comes first 

Cube’s AI Analyst is designed for real financial work, not generic analysis. Whether it’s Smart Variance analysis or conversational insights, Cube ensures finance teams can trust the data they’re acting on.

Control stays with you

Cube’s AI Analyst and user permissions aren’t hidden in a black box. Finance teams have full visibility into how insights are generated, who has access to them, and when, all with human oversight at every step.

Real-world benefits of intelligent collaboration

By building Cube’s AI Analyst directly into finance workflows, Cube enables teams to:

  • Collaborate seamlessly across departments through real-time data availability directly in Cube’s new Workflows.
  • Get instant answers to critical questions with conversational AI in Slack and Teams.
  • Analyze faster with AI-driven Smart Variance detection.
  • Stay focused on high-value work like forecasting, scenario planning, and strategic advising.

Intelligent collaboration frees finance teams to operate at the speed of business, focusing on the context that matters without sacrificing accuracy or control.

Why AI-powered collaboration is the future of finance

Research shows that organizations that embrace human-AI collaboration achieve the biggest gains in productivity, creativity, and business performance.

We’ve seen this firsthand. When finance teams use AI to collaborate by automating repetitive tasks and surface insights, they can move faster and collaborate across silos. They don’t just move faster, they lead smarter.
