Manual account mapping from diverse trial balances to standardized financial statements is error-prone, time-consuming, and lacks a review trail.

Current tools focus on standardizing output formats (e.g., pretty dashboards) but fail to handle the messy, non-standardized input of account names, GL codes, and cumulative balances across different sources, and lack built-in review trails for mapping decisions.
