Pigment wants to get artificial intelligence out of its black box

At a meeting organised by Eight Advisory on Tuesday 26 March, the fintech company presented the potential that lies in the spread of artificial intelligence in companies and in finance departments in particular.
In today’s complex and uncertain environment, it is crucial for companies to improve the reliability of their cash flow monitoring and forecasting, in real time. According to Maxime Touvet, Partner at Eight Advisory, this is a key concern cited by a third of the firm’s clients. For his part, Florian Jouvenot, Director of Finance Transformation & CFO Advisory, pointed out in the “Innovation in Finance” study published at the end of 2023 that the use of an EPM (Enterprise Performance Management) such as Pigment is one of the main priorities of finance departments.
While AI is nothing new, as it has already been used in companies for around ten years, generative AI has been offering monitoring and visualisation solutions with dashboards and automated scenarios for the past two years. Pigment, which has already entered into a partnership with OpenAI but has not ruled out working with French experts such as MistralAI, wants to demystify AI and turn it into a tool with high added value that facilitates human decision-making.
