FAQ

Cube for TM1 and IBM Planning Analytics teams, answered.

What is Cube?

Cube is the agentic FP&A platform built for the AI era. Cube Operating Intelligence™ (CubeOI™) connects your business data to the tools where decisions happen, and an always-on Digital Finance Team of agents monitors, analyzes and models while finance keeps judgment and control.

Is Cube a TM1 alternative?

Yes. For teams on TM1 or IBM Planning Analytics that want to keep governed models and Excel write-back while putting finance-grade AI to work, Cube is a strong TM1 alternative.

What is the best EPM software for the AI era?

The best EPM software gives AI governed financial context grounded in the model finance actually runs, then brings it to every surface where decisions happen. Cube is built for that.

What should you look for in EPM software?

Look for a model finance can own without consultants, ad hoc analysis and data submission in Excel, governed versions and permissions, consolidation support, and AI that can trace to the source. See our pricing.

Can our team keep working in Excel?

Yes. Teams retrieve, pivot and submit data from Excel the way they do in TM1 today, and Cube’s patented bi-directional sync keeps every change in the governed model. Google Sheets works the same way.

Does Cube support consolidation?

Yes. Cube supports multi-entity, multi-currency and consolidation on one model, with governed versions, permissions and auditability.

How do Cube’s agents work?
