Move beyond reporting. Uncover what matters and act on it.

Hobasa is a cross-system intelligence platform that helps organisations identify and resolve hidden operational gaps across Finance and HR initiatives before they impact performance. It transforms disconnected client data into decision-ready information so your firm spends less time preparing and more time advising.

The problem you already feel

Advisory is the prize. Data preparation eats the day.

Client information lives in a dozen systems, and significant time goes to gathering, reconciling and validating before any real analysis starts. Advisory opportunities get missed, and compliance gaps surface only at review or audit.

What our AI does today

AI that connects your systems, cites its sources and is reviewed by people.

No black-box answers. Every finding is traceable to a record in your systems and validated before it reaches a decision-maker.

  • Analysis across systems that don't normally talk

    Reconcile records from accounting, payroll, HR and operational tools into one view.

  • Answers linked back to the source

    Every finding cites the exact record, row or document it came from.

  • Explainable and reviewable outputs

    Each answer shows the inputs, the rule applied and how it was calculated.

  • Fraud, anomaly and compliance detection

    Duplicate payments, unusual patterns and policy breaks flagged against your rules.

  • Human review before important decisions

    Findings are checked by an analyst before they reach an owner, controller or CFO.

What Hobasa surfaces

A structured review layer across every client.

Most firms start with one or two of these and expand. Each sits on top of the systems your clients already use.

Multi-client dashboard, with individual client views

One connected view across your entire client base, with the ability to drill into any single client in seconds.

Exception-based review

Skip the line-by-line scan. Focus partner and senior time only on the items flagged as worth a look.

Anomaly detection across accounting, payroll and operations

Surface unusual transactions, misclassifications and recurring issues across clients before they reach review.

Advisory opportunity identification

Spot the moments where a client needs cash, margin, hiring or planning guidance, with the data to back it up.

Compliance gap detection with alerts

Catch missing filings, control breaks and reporting gaps with continuous monitoring instead of period-end surprises.

Faster month-end and reporting cycles

Validated data and pre-built reconciliations cut the cycle so your team closes books and ships reports sooner.

Enhances your stack

Hobasa adds a powerful analytical layer, without replacing what works.

Hobasa enhances your existing workflows and the systems your clients already use. It connects them, structures the data, and surfaces what matters, while your team keeps working in the tools they know.
