Analysis that actually answers back.

Everything you need to understand performance

Automatic reality checks

Stop the manual export-and-align dance. ClearBox FPA pulls live data from QuickBooks and maps it against your plan on your approval. Every view gives you the exact $ and % variance the second your books close.

  • $ and % variance for every line
  • Actuals update drafted for your review as QBO syncs
  • Compare any period range

Compare anything to everything

Put this year against last, or your "Aggressive Growth" forecast against your "Base Case." Run multi-scenario comparisons side-by-side in one view. No broken VLOOKUPs, no version-control nightmares — just instant perspective.

  • Prior year comparison in any report
  • Scenario vs scenario side by side
  • Budget vs forecast vs actuals

Slice by business, not just accounts

Toggle your entire analysis by department, location, or product line. Isolate a single cost center or view the whole company without losing data integrity.

  • Filter to a single segment
  • Show multiple segments in one view
  • Allocations stay accurate however you slice

Connect dollars to deeds

Financials only tell half the story. Flip to the Drivers tab to see the operational metrics — headcount, units, or customer churn — that actually dictated the result. Use the same variance logic you use for your P&L on the KPIs you actually manage.

  • All drivers in a dedicated analysis view
  • Compare actuals vs forecast for operational metrics
  • Understand what’s moving the financial result

Audit-level depth, one click away

Don't just wonder why a number is off. Drill directly into the account detail to see the specific period movements and general ledger entries. Move from the boardroom view to the ledger level without ever leaving the page.

  • Account-level detail on demand
  • Movement by period
  • No export required

Sensitivity analysis

Pick a metric — net income, free cash flow, revenue — and ClearBox FPA shows you what inputs actually move the needle most.

  • Auto-discovers all variable assumptions
  • Tornado chart ranked by impact
  • Results ready in seconds
