Technical description of the service

Asteria Smart Cash Flow provides the user with a financial overview of the company’s cash flow. The service connects to bank account interfaces (i.e., PSD2 interfaces) through API to fetch bank account data, and to accounting software through API or through local installation, to fetch accounting data. Bank account data and accounting data is downloaded to Asteria servers. The data is processed with the purpose of giving the user a financial overview of the company and its cash flow. The service shows the user graphs and summaries of cash flow and important features for the company. The service may also give the user insight and advice to change the company’s future cash flow. The service analyses financials such as (but not limited to) deposits, withdrawals, invoices, mobile payments, invoices, and other receivables, etc. The data may be clustered and forecasting models may be used to indicate future financials.

Asteria Smart Cash Flow is offered on Asteria’s website and white-labeled by partners to Asteria, such as (but not limited to) Företagskollen offered by Swedbank and the Savings Banks.
