Finpilot vs Punchcard (formerly Agentive)

Finpilot is an AI knowledge management platform for institutional allocators, limited partners, wealth managers, and RIAs. It connects manager documents, meeting notes, CRM records, and internal memos so investment teams can query their full knowledge base, generate reports, and process documents without digging through folders.

The platform includes chat-based analysis across all organizational data, AI agents that draft investment memos and due diligence reports using your templates, Matrix tables that compare funds across strategy, fees, and performance, automated document extraction, a research hub that organizes manager communications, and alerts that flag capital calls or strategy changes as documents arrive.

Finpilot integrates with allocator systems including Backstop, Dynamo, Bipsync, Tamale, Canoe, Salesforce, FactSet, Microsoft SharePoint, and Teams. It is SOC 2 Type II compliant with enterprise encryption, SSO, role-based access, and citations on every output linking to exact source locations.

Endowments, foundations, OCIOs, family offices, pension funds, funds of funds, and wealth management firms use Finpilot to scale manager research, portfolio monitoring, due diligence, and client reporting. Access is through demo requests on the website.

Punchcard (formerly Agentive) is audit assurance software that runs engagements as structured units called punchcards: client evidence requests, substantive tests, and review steps that trace back to source documents. The goagentive.com URL redirects to punchcard.com, where the product is marketed as "the assurance system of action" for CPA firms, risk consultants, and their clients. CoAudit is the flagship punchcard for substantive testing, while Workpaper and Financial Statement Review handle spreadsheet testing and FS tie-outs.

Generic audit software tracks tasks and folders; Punchcard pairs each test with an agent that reads invoices, contracts, bank statements, and payroll files, then outputs workpapers with page-level citations auditors can validate. A Richey May case study on the site cites revenue testing across 41 selections and 123 documents in 30 minutes. That narrow focus on cited audit evidence is the trade-off: it is built for assurance workflows, not general document chat.

External audit teams at firms like RSM, Richey May, and JLK Rosenberger use it for client PBC requests, detail testing, and SOX control work. Internal audit groups get standardized procedure templates in the same workspace. Access is demo-led; the homepage highlights SOC 2 certification and GDPR compliance but does not list self-serve pricing.
