Sage has introduced the Sage Intacct Finance Intelligence Agent, adding to its growing network of artificial intelligence agents, the Atlanta-based company announced on Nov. 4.
“This launch sets a new benchmark for high-performance finance and marks a pivotal step toward autonomous operations and insights,” Sage said in a media release. “By supporting CFOs with AI-powered agents, Sage helps organizations get continuous accounting, trust, and insights, delivering speed, accuracy, and clarity while reducing manual efforts and reporting.”
The Finance Intelligence Agent acts as an intelligence layer that routes natural language questions to the right AI agents and financial data sources, coordinates their responses, and composes a final, actionable answer in seconds. By eliminating the need to run reports or analyze data externally, it simplifies decision-making and accelerates outcomes.
“It’s incredibly important that we give finance teams technology that doesn’t just respond to requests but works alongside them proactively, and that’s what we are achieving with our agents,” Sage CEO Steve Hare said in a statement. “With our AI agents, we are helping teams save time, surface insights faster, and perform at their best. It’s about giving finance leaders more confidence in their numbers and the freedom to guide the business. This is authentic, finance-first AI that empowers high-performing teams and equips them with transparent, accurate, and audit-ready insights.”
The addition of the Finance Intelligence Agent builds on the existing suite of Sage Intacct AI agents designed to support accounting and finance teams across workflows:
- Close Agent: Keeps close tasks on track, flags issues early, and provides full visibility in one workspace.
- Accounts Payable Agent: Automates bill processes, purchase order matching, and duplicate checks, allowing teams to review and approve with confidence.
- Assurance Agent: Catches errors at entry, stopping mistakes before they post and eliminating downstream rework.
- Time Agent: Automates project time capture, freeing staff from manual entry and maximizing billing and estimating accuracy.
These agents are built on Sage’s unified platform and powered by Sage AI, which delivers purpose-built, domain-specific AI services. Acting as behind-the-scenes specialists, they operate within permission boundaries, whether surfaced through Sage Copilot or embedded into product workflows, the company said.
“Our agents are designed for the workflows that matter most,” said Dan Miller, executive vice president of financials and ERP at Sage. “Whether it’s optimizing vendor payments, guiding teams through the close, or providing financial insight, these agents save valuable time while helping finance professionals deliver consistent, high performance.”
The Finance Intelligence Agent is available in December to early adopters on Sage Intacct across the U.S. and U.K.
