Stop losing your model in v30. Version it, diff it, and remember why it changed.
Version, diff, and remember the why behind every Excel model - without leaving Excel. A live data layer underneath, and an AI that reasons over your model and won't invent a number.
Free for one analyst · No credit card, no implementation
Why · Raised growth on the new-store ramp. - Dana, Mar 14.
Broken links. A folder of Budget_FINAL_final_v3 files. No record of which assumption moved, or why. That is not a dashboard problem - it is a model-lifecycle problem, and it is where FP&A actually lives.
Five files named final, three people editing copies, links breaking on every move. The plan of record is whatever someone last emailed - and nobody is sure.
EBITDA moved $300K between board decks and the reasoning is gone. The judgment that built the model - the most valuable thing FP&A produces - evaporates with each save-as.

The agent writes a variance bridge, a live forecast, a 13-week cash flow, and a fully linked 3-statement model - directly in your sheet, as formulas off your own cells, every figure validated and the balance sheet tying out. Not a chatbot that talks about your numbers; an analyst that builds with them.
The whole lifecycle, inside the workbook you already use. No rebuild, no migration, no leaving Excel.
One model, every version - reopenable in any workbook. The file never existed.
Every commit diffs the inputs you moved and the outputs they drove - to the cent, never invented.
Everything the spreadsheet graveyard lacks - version control, diffing, lineage, and the reasoning - wired into the Excel you already work in.
Git for your models. Every commit captures the assumptions, the outputs they drove, and the why - with a canonical current plan.
Reference net_revenue by name, not cell B14. Links stop breaking; the data lives in OperatorIQ, not the workbook.
A deterministic engine owns every figure; the fine-tuned model only phrases the analysis - and abstains rather than guessing. Self-hostable on Enterprise.
Lives inside Excel as an add-in. No migrating to a proprietary platform, no consultants, no implementation project. Start in minutes.
QuickBooks, Square, and Xero reconciled into one canonical P&L and pulled straight into your model. Forecast off real numbers, not stale pastes.
Before you trust a model, OperatorIQ scans it for the errors that hide in spreadsheets - broken references, hardcoded overrides, runaway assumptions - and flags each with the cell and the reason.
OperatorIQ runs on a fine-tuned FP&A model that, on held-out tests, produced zero hallucinated figures and honestly said "I can't tell" on incomplete data - beating frontier models that don't.
Every figure it cites is owned by a deterministic engine, not the model. For finance, that is the whole game: the analysis is only worth anything if you can trust the number.
OperatorIQ was built for finance, where trust in the numbers is the whole job - so we treat your data the same way.
OperatorIQ is an add-in, not a platform you migrate to. Your working models stay in your own files.
We keep versioned model snapshots - your assumptions and the why - and only the data you connect or explicitly upload. Encrypted at rest, on US infrastructure, and deletable from your account.
QuickBooks, Square, and Xero connect through their official OAuth - OperatorIQ never sees your password, only a token you can revoke anytime. It reads your financials to build your analysis and never writes to your books.
A deterministic engine owns every figure; the model only phrases the analysis, and abstains rather than guessing. Your data is sent to the model only to phrase results, our AI provider does not train on it, and Enterprise can self-host the model so nothing leaves your environment.
Every model change is versioned with who, what, when, and why - a real audit trail, not a black box. SSO (SAML / OIDC) on Team; SCIM and audit logs on Enterprise.

A model belongs to the team, not one laptop. Every builder works from one shared version history and one canonical current plan - and every change is stamped with who made it and why. No more "which file is final?" or five people editing copies.
Builders each hold a seat; Team adds free viewer seats for the people who only need to follow along - your CFO, the board, cross-functional partners.
Every version, every author, one current plan - a real audit trail across the team.
Free for one analyst - no credit card. Scale by the seat, no implementation, no annual contract, no sales gate. The enterprise platforms hide their price; we don't.

I'm Michael Allison. I do FP&A for a living at Driven Brands - the largest automotive services company in North America - where my own models lived in a graveyard of versions with no memory of what changed or why. I built OperatorIQ to be the tool I wanted: version control, diffing, and decision-memory, without ever leaving Excel. Want to talk first? My email is below.
