BlackLine

At BlackLine, we are listening to customers on how to implement AI. As co-CEO Therese Tucker notes “AI is a key component of our strategy to innovate for you.” Recent capability introductions such as the Journals Risk Analyser uses generative AI to provide key trends, insights, and anomaly detection. This was borne directly from a need for our customer to analyze increasing volumes of journal entry postings. See more on BlackLine and AI in this video.
