DataRails is a platform for automating financial planning and analysis (FP&A). It helps small and mid-sized businesses speed up the collection, consolidation, and processing of financial data while continuing to work in Excel.
What it does
DataRails connects to your data sources, brings them into a single model, and keeps numbers updated automatically. It extends standard Excel workflows so teams can automate recurring FP&A tasks without moving to a new tool.
