Sage, the leader in accounting, financial, HR and payroll technology for small and mid-sized businesses, unveiled powerful new capabilities in Sage Intacct that help high-performing finance teams move faster, gain greater control, and lead with impact.
With new AI-powered automation, embedded payments, and built-in sustainability insights, the latest innovations are designed to simplify operations, accelerate the close, and give finance teams time back to focus on higher value work.
Today’s finance leaders are under increasing pressure to deliver speed, efficiency, and strategic value, yet many are still held back by manual processes, fragmented systems, and rising ESG demands. Recent Sage research found that 84% of finance leaders want to close the books faster, and 87% are looking for more advanced AP automation to support their goals.
From intelligent reconciliations and simplified payment to real-time emissions estimates, Sage Intacct is delivering the tools CFOs need to eliminate inefficiencies, boost resilience, and drive sustainable growth.
"Finance teams are always looking to save time so they can invest in growth and their business’s success while maintaining clarity and control," said Dan Miller, EVP, Financials & ERP Division, Sage. "We're delivering AI-powered automation in everyday finance tasks, helping leaders move with agility, reduce risk and operate with greater confidence."
As Sage delivers on its High-Performance Finance vision, partners are seeing how these innovations translate into tangible improvements for customers.
“Sage is always at the forefront of helping customers realise the value of automation and insight,” said Scott Schimberg, Partner, Armanino. “By further automating reconciliation, payments, and procurement, Sage Intacct is helping them save time and make smarter decisions. It’s the kind of innovation finance teams need to stay ahead.”
