How it Works

Power Beneath the Spreadsheet

A3 turns Excel into a connected, governed, enterprise-grade FP&A platform without changing the way you model. You stay in Excel. A3 handles everything else behind the scenes.

1. Connect Your Data

A3 integrates with your existing systems, including ERPs, CRMs, HR platforms, and data warehouses. Live connections keep your Excel models synced and up to date.

  • Compatible with OLAP and relational databases
  • Supports scheduled or on-demand refreshes
  • Keeps all your models aligned to a single source of truth

2. Build and Customize Models

You model in native Excel. A3 adds automation, structure, and flexibility underneath. Use your existing spreadsheets or start with templates and build exactly what you need.

  • Build top-down, bottom-up, or hybrid forecasts
  • Add drivers, assumptions, and custom logic with full control
  • Maintain formula-level precision with added stability and scale

3. Collaborate With Confidence

A3 eliminates version chaos and adds structure to team workflows. Everyone can contribute without stepping on each other’s work.

  • Multi-user input with controlled permissions
  • Role-based workflows, reviews, and approvals
  • Full audit trails and activity tracking built in

4. Report, Analyze, and Adapt

Turn your models into insights. A3 supports real-time dashboards, drilldowns, and scenario analysis without ever leaving Excel.

  • Create and share dashboards and ad hoc reports
  • Drill down to detail or roll up to executive views
  • Run what-if analysis and forecasting on the fly
