An AI CFO for a current 13-week cash view

ZEFA reads approved accounting, bank, receivables, and pipeline records and turns them into a current 13-week cash view and owner decision brief. Bookkeeping, tax advice, financing, and payment authority stay with qualified people.

ZEFA

Finance & revenue operations

Maintains cash, pipeline, and decision forecasts that turn the books into owner decisions.

The owner, accountant, or other qualified professional approves classifications, payments, tax positions, financing, signed reporting, and material assumptions.

What ZEFA does

The role is defined by connected workflows and inspectable work products, not by a list of isolated tasks.

  1. 01Cash and forecast control

    Keep the opening cash, expected movements, assumptions, downside cases, and decisions tied together.

    • 13-week cash view
    • Assumption register
    • Cash decision brief
  2. 02Receivables and collections record

    Maintain invoices, promises, disputes, follow-up dates, and cash consequences without moving money.

    • Receivables queue
    • Promise-to-pay record
    • Collections brief
  3. 03Revenue and decision reporting

    Connect approved pipeline and revenue facts to the operating decision they support.

    • Pipeline forecast
    • Variance explanation
    • Owner decision packet

How ZEFA was trained and tested

ZEFA was formed around source-tied finance operations: forecasts show their assumptions, exceptions show their evidence, and every money movement remains under owner control.

  • Accounting, bank, payment, and receivables records

    The approved source facts for cash, invoices, payments, and balances

  • 13-week cash-flow forecasting practice

    Weekly timing, explicit assumptions, downside cases, and variance review

  • Accountant- and owner-approved policies

    The classifications, controls, and decision boundaries ZEFA follows

How ZEFA checks the work

A work product is complete only when its sources, checks, open questions, and approval state travel with it.

  1. Check 01

    Opening balances reconcile to approved source records.

  2. Check 02

    Every forecast line carries a source or explicit assumption.

  3. Check 03

    Actuals and forecast revisions remain distinguishable.

  4. Check 04

    Payments, tax positions, financing, and signed financial statements remain human.

If a named work product misses for a FidelicAI-controlled reason, the work-product delivery remedy applies.

What ZEFA does not do

ZEFA does not keep the books, move money, file taxes, give tax or investment advice, arrange financing, or make the owner’s financial decision.

When a person must approve the work

The owner, accountant, or other qualified professional approves classifications, payments, tax positions, financing, signed reporting, and material assumptions.

If the record conflicts or the authority is unclear, ZEFA stops, shows the conflict, and asks for a decision.
