Vero AI for Finance & Internal Audit

Audit-Ready Evidence For Every Ledger, Model, and Framework.

Vero AI applies formal control logic to trial balances, reconciliations, spreadsheet models, and review documentation — re-performing the numbers and evaluating the evidence against SOX, COSO, PCAOB expectations, and the local regimes your subsidiaries report under.

The unaddressed gap

Financial controls testing still runs on tick marks and tie-outs

Finance and internal audit teams produce more structured, more numeric evidence than any other function — and still test it by hand, one sample at a time, once a quarter.

Before Vero AI — manual, sampled, unrepeatableWith Vero AI — evaluated, complete, repeatable
Control testing tracked in spreadsheets, tick marks, and email threads across the quarter.
Every control tested against the same standard, every cycle, with the work shown.
Reconciliations and management review controls sampled by hand, a few items at a time.
Whole populations evaluated — not a judgmental sample of twenty-five lines.
Spreadsheet models trusted because they have always been trusted, never re-performed.
Formulas, footings, and tie-outs re-performed and evidenced on every run.
Each jurisdiction — SOX, J-SOX, C-SOX, HGB — run as its own program with its own binder.
One evidence layer, credited to every regime that relies on the same control.

Frameworks finance & internal audit teams are held to

Named frameworks are supported out of the box. Local regimes and internal methodologies are modeled as custom control sets — built the same way, clause by clause, evidence type by evidence type.

SOX
Supported today

Financial controls testing aligned to the COSO Internal Control framework and PCAOB's top-down, risk-based testing standards (AS 2201 / AS 2101).

SOC 1 & SOC 2
Supported today

Service-organization controls over financial reporting and information security for outsourced finance and close processes.

COSO & PCAOB AS 2201
Supported today

Control environment and audit-of-ICFR expectations reflected in how each control is scoped, tested, and evidenced.

Custom Control Sets
Supported today

Any internal policy, close-process control, or regional regulation — encoded once, evaluated consistently everywhere.

Risk-based audit methodology
Custom control set

Modeled on the risk-based approach used across the profession — including Thomson Reuters' PPC audit guides — risk assessment, tailored audit programs, and workpaper documentation encoded as testable control logic.

Spreadsheet & model controls
Custom control set

Deterministic recalculation of formulas, tie-outs, and numeric outputs — not just document and text review — across Excel-based close, consolidation, and forecasting models.

J-SOX (Japan)
Custom control set

Internal control reporting under Japan's Financial Instruments and Exchange Act — company-level and process-level controls, evaluated the same way as domestic SOX.

C-SOX / NI 52-109 (Canada)
Custom control set

CEO/CFO certification support for disclosure controls and ICFR effectiveness under Canadian securities law.

German HGB, KonTraG & IFRS
Custom control set

Statutory accounts under the Handelsgesetzbuch, KonTraG/BilMoG risk-management disclosures, and IFRS consolidated reporting — evaluated in one pass.

Two programs, one evidence layer

Built for the SOX program and the global group

A US ICFR program and a multinational group face the same underlying problem — repetitive control testing over numeric evidence — but the regimes and reporting lines differ.

U.S. Public Companies & SOX Programs

Controllers, SOX leads, and internal audit teams running an annual ICFR program under external auditor scrutiny.

  • SOX controls tested to one standard across every cycle
  • Management review controls evidenced with the review actually performed
  • Reconciliations and roll-forwards re-performed rather than sampled
  • Workpapers your external auditor can follow without a walkthrough call
Global & Multinational Finance Teams

Groups consolidating subsidiaries across regimes, where the same control has to satisfy several regulators at once.

  • J-SOX, C-SOX, HGB, and KonTraG modeled as custom control sets
  • Shared controls tested once and credited to every regime that relies on them
  • Local-language evidence evaluated against the group control definition
  • One consolidated view of control health across every entity
One evidence layer · one evaluation engine · every entity
Spreadsheet & model controls

The control everyone documents and no one tests

End-user computing is where most financial reporting risk actually lives. Vero AI treats the spreadsheet as evidence: the calculation is re-performed, the inputs are traced, and the tie-out to the ledger is shown — so the control is evidenced rather than asserted.

  • Formulas and footings re-performed, not eyeballed
  • Inputs traced to the source system they claim to come from
  • Version integrity and change history evidenced
  • Every variance reported with the cell-level detail behind it

Finance & internal audit FAQs

SOX, internal audit, and global regimes — answered

What is SOX compliance software, and how is Vero AI different?
Most SOX compliance software is a workflow tracker — it stores control descriptions, assigns owners, and records that testing happened. Vero AI evaluates the evidence itself. Reconciliations, roll-forwards, management review documentation, and spreadsheet models are tested against the control's own language, and every conclusion cites the record it came from.
Can SOX testing actually be automated?
The judgment stays with your team; the repetitive evaluation does not have to. Vero AI applies the same control logic to every item in a population — tie-outs, footings, approval evidence, timeliness, and completeness — and surfaces only the exceptions, with the supporting evidence attached, so testers spend their time on the items that need a human.
How does Vero AI handle spreadsheet and end-user computing controls?
Spreadsheets are treated as evidence, not as a black box. Formulas, footings, and inputs are checked and tied back to the ledger or source system, version integrity is evidenced, and any variance is reported as a finding with the cell-level detail behind it — the end-user computing control most SOX programs document but rarely test.
Do you support J-SOX, C-SOX, and German HGB requirements?
Yes, as custom control sets. Each regime is encoded clause by clause the same way our named frameworks are, and controls shared with your US SOX program are tested once and credited to every regime that relies on them rather than being run as separate programs per subsidiary.
Is Vero AI internal audit software, or does it replace our GRC system?
It is the evaluation layer, not a system of record. Vero AI reads evidence out of the ERP, close tools, document repositories, and GRC platform you already run, and returns audit-ready workpapers back into that program — so internal audit gains coverage without a migration.
How is Vero AI priced for a SOX or internal audit program?
Pricing is based on the scope of the program rather than per seat or per control, so adding a subsidiary, a regime, or a testing cycle does not multiply the cost. Request a demo and we will size it against your current control population.
