Our take

Planful is driven by the conviction that continuous planning elevates the financial IQ of all parties involved. It rebranded in 2020 from 'Host Analytics' to reflect this fundamental focus on continuous planning being central to Planful's identity.

Currently, most financial institutions only have quarterly or even annual planning reviews, meaning they have to rely on outdated budget projections & financial metrics so they lag behind the curve. Planful sets itself apart through helping clients to use monthly, weekly, or more frequent cycles. This means businesses can adapt and innovate rapidly in response to events and help drive financial innovation.

Planful’s cloud financial planning and analysis solutions stand out as it delivers 90% reduced reporting time, and up to 75% reduced average time to close. This approach has led to Planful being trusted by hundreds of big-name brands, including Five Guys, Evernote, Boston Red Sox, Robinhood, and TGI Fridays, as well as hundreds of thousands of users across the world.
