Auditors struggle to manually validate calculation linkbases in 1000+ page iXBRL filings due to complex interactions between presentation and calculation linkbases, risking errors and inefficiency.

Current methods rely on manual validation which is error-prone and time-consuming for massive reports, lacking automated tools that understand hierarchical relationships in iXBRL structures.
