Ep 541: AI & Trust: When 98% accuracy won't cut it and how Sage can fix it

Your CFO just lost sleep over a single missing penny... again.

Here's the thing about finance teams: they'll hunt for days to find ONE CENT that's off in their books. Because in accounting, even 98% accuracy = complete failure.

Sage is changing the conversation around AI, trust and your books. 

Sage is a global leader in cloud-based accounting, financial management, and business management solutions. 

Sage CTO Aaron Harris joins the Everyday AI show to show us the new recipe for trust they're cooking up.
