Ravical

Heading to Amazon Web Services (AWS) Summit in Amsterdam tomorrow? Catch Ravical CTO Ken Bastiaensen at 1 pm at the Startup Loft stage.

We just shipped a first set of workflow templates for our early access users. Instead of building a workflow from scratch, these templates offer a starting point. Guided by our workflow builder agent, you turn a template into a workflow that is fully configured to your firm's needs and your own. The current set is just a start. Curious to see where it grows from here.

Today, we're launching the new Ravical Workspace. A platform built to help accounting and professional services firms run work across their entire client base and price it by the value it delivers instead of the time it takes. How it works? 🔎 assesses a firm’s client book and spots the work that needs to happen, across client communications, financial data, documents, and external triggers. 💻 executes that work end-to-end through pre-built and custom workflows, pulling the right client context, identifying the relevant specialist inside the firm, and producing a draft ready for expert review and sign-off, with a human in the loop at all times. 💸 once reviewed, a billing agent analyses the firm’s pricing history, client context, and the value of the work delivered to support value-based pricing decisions.

Firms aren't struggling with AI adoption but with pricing and business models; Ravical offers a platform to shift from billable hours to value-based pricing » https://lnkd.in/ekaVU2uz

For our recent event "Value-based Pricing and AI in Accountancy", a select group of Dutch accounting firm leaders gathered in Utrecht. On the menu: a panel discussion on what comes next for the profession. On stage: Joris Van der Gucht (CEO, Ravical), Ken Bastiaensen (CTO, Ravical) and David Versteeg (Chief Transformation & Information Officer, Flynth), moderated by Remco Janssen (Proudly Media). The theme: value-based pricing in accountancy. An excellent example of an idea that has been around for a very long time, and for which AI is proving to be a much-needed unblocking factor. The discussion that unfolded was lively: → The profession has spent 15 years digitising for efficiency, and that work matters, but speed inside an hourly model has a ceiling. Pricing on value is how firms break through it. → Knowledge is now widely available, and we see the same pattern medicine went through: ten years ago Dr Google was the villain; today Dutch GPs ask whether you've checked Thuisarts.nl first. → To break the billable-hour reflex, a mindset change is needed. As one partner put it during the debate: "I asked my CFO: that BMW of yours, do you look at it and think about how many hours it took to build? Neither do our clients about our work. The radical step is to stop doing the hour-based math in your own head." This coming week we're announcing something that moves this from conversation to practice. Watch this space. #Accountancy #ValueBasedPricing #AI

Sneak peek.

Next week. We show what we've built.
