See how the same business problems are solved differently
Connect your accounting system and AI generates accurate financial reports in real-time. Automated validation catches errors before they become problems.
Export data to Excel, manually clean it, create formulas (hope they're right), update charts, check for errors, email report (v47_FINAL_THIS_ONE.xlsx).
Result: Real-time accurate reports vs days of manual work with high error risk.
AI continuously analyzes your pipeline, predicts close rates, identifies at-risk deals, and recommends actions—automatically updating as data changes.
Weekly: Export CRM data → Manual cleaning → Update pivot tables → Recalculate forecasts → Email spreadsheet → Hope calculations are right → Repeat next week.
Result: AI-powered predictions with zero effort vs weekly manual grind prone to formula errors.
AI monitors stock levels in real-time, predicts demand, optimizes reorder points, and alerts you to potential stockouts—all automatically.
Download inventory reports, manually update Excel tracker, calculate reorder points with formulas, hope no one changed the formulas, wonder why the VLOOKUP broke.
Result: Automated optimization vs spreadsheet maintenance nightmare.
Classic BI — whether that’s Manual Analytics (Excel/Spreadsheets) or a spreadsheet — stops at what happened. Adaptrix answers the question you actually asked: what happened, why it happened, what’s next, and what to do about it — with the SQL and provenance attached.

“Why did it drop?” The dashboard can’t say. Export the data, open a spreadsheet, book time with an analyst — the “why” is still your job.

Yes, for recurring business analysis. Adaptrix connects to your live systems, builds the semantic layer automatically with human approval, and answers questions in plain language with SHAP-based driver analysis — instead of error-prone copy-paste spreadsheet chains. Excel remains fine for one-off personal calculations.
Adaptrix is an AI decision engine: answers are computed directly against live data with no manual exports, are validated, and come with root-cause explanations. Spreadsheet analysis relies on manual pulls and fragile formulas, and typically answers 'what' but not 'why'.
Adaptrix uses a fixed annual fee with €0 per token; public entry pricing is €2,500 per month, larger tiers on request. Manual analysis looks free but pays in analyst hours, errors and late answers.
Yes. Adaptrix runs self-hosted open-weight models on your own Kubernetes or on Adaptrix's sovereign EU infrastructure — your data and prompts never go to a third-party AI provider, unlike spreadsheets emailed around or synced to personal drives. GDPR-native by design.
