How budget planning works in Castford

1

Driver-based modeling

Build your plan from business drivers — headcount, pipeline, NDR, ACV — not static line items. Every assumption is linked, traceable, and auditable. Change one driver and see the full P&L impact instantly.

2

Rolling forecasts with ML

ETS + XGBoost ensemble automatically re-forecasts monthly. MAPE tracked per period. Retrain with one click when actuals land. No more stale annual budgets.

3

What-if scenario builder

Clone your base case, adjust any driver, and instantly see P&L impact. Compare bear/base/bull side-by-side with ML-powered confidence intervals and sensitivity tornado charts.

4

Budget vs Actual in real-time

Auto-detect variances as transactions flow in from your ERP. AI Copilot flags the top drivers and recommends action before your CFO asks — with visible reasoning you can verify.
