Disclosure review

Disclosure Review automates finding financial‑statement disclosures and matching them to your requirements. This Al-powered tool helps streamline the process of completing your disclosure checklist.
It doesn't stop at your current checklist—it looks for every relevant disclosure requirement. If you choose one for a topic you haven't added to the engagement yet, it'll add that topic and the requirement for you.
Refer to the following overview to learn about the feature and how to access it.

What the feature does

  • Reads uploaded financial statements (PDF and Word documents).
  • Identifies disclosures made in the financial statements.
  • Links disclosures to specific disclosure requirements.
  • Provides reasoning and citations for each identified disclosure.
  • Automatically populates
    Yes
    responses in the disclosure checklist when you accept suggestions.

What the feature doesn't do

  • Determine
    No
    responses (when a required disclosure was not made).
  • Determine
    N/A
    responses (when a disclosure requirement doesn't apply).
