Talking to Your Model: The Natural Language Interface for Anaplan

The End of the "Model Builder" Bottleneck: Querying Anaplan with Natural Language

Anaplan is the gold standard for connected planning, but it has a steep learning curve. Building models and creating dashboards requires specialized "Anaplan Builders." This creates a bottleneck: whenever a CFO or VP of Sales wants a specific cut of the data that isn't in the standard dashboard, they have to submit a ticket and wait.

The data is trapped behind a wall of technical complexity. ChatFin breaks down this wall by providing a natural language interface to your Anaplan models.

Static Dashboards vs. Dynamic Questions

Business moves faster than dashboard development. A standard variance report might show that sales are down, but it won't explain why. Executives need to ask follow-up questions immediately: "Is this variance driven by volume or price?" "Show me the trend for just the Northeast region excluding the new product launch."

Traditional BI tools struggle to answer these ad-hoc questions without manual intervention. ChatFin allows you to ask these questions directly.

ChatFin: Your 24/7 FP&A Analyst

ChatFin provides a conversational interface on top of your Anaplan models. Users can type (or speak) questions like, "What is our projected cash flow if we delay the hiring plan by 2 months?" ChatFin translates this into Anaplan queries and returns the answer instantly.

It also enables scenario planning on the fly. Instead of asking a modeler to build a new scenario, a user can tell ChatFin: "Create a scenario where raw material costs increase by 10% and show me the impact on Gross Margin."

Democratized Data

This approach democratizes data access, empowering non-technical stakeholders to access deep insights without breaking the underlying models. It frees up your Anaplan builders to focus on strategic modeling rather than answering ad-hoc queries.

With ChatFin, you don't need to learn a modeling language to understand your business—you just need to know how to ask a question.
