Case Study: Yoco Doubles Financial Reporting Output with Abacum

How Yoco doubled their reporting output without adding new headcount

Yoco, a fintech company in South Africa, was struggling with low finance productivity caused by labor-intensive reporting across multiple tools. Their team manually copied data from Xero into Google Sheets and pulled customer data from a warehouse into Tableau, making monthly reporting slow and limiting deeper analysis. Abacum, an AI-native FP&A and business planning platform, was brought in to help streamline these processes.

With Abacum, Yoco consolidated data into a single source of truth and automated reporting and forecasting workflows. The result was a reduction of more than 3 days in reporting cycles, which helped Yoco double its reporting output without adding headcount, improve real-time visibility, and update forecasts automatically each month. Abacum also enabled faster decision-making, more granular analysis, and better cost and revenue management.
