The month’s transactions, in one reviewable list.
Every transaction read from QuickBooks with its vendor, amount, category and review status, so what is still open is visible in one place, and any figure you ask about is counted from these rows.
The close, the audit, the renewal. One rule underneath all of them.
Coset doesn't run a different product for each of these. The same ledger, the same documents, and the same rule for what counts as evidence answer whichever one you opened it for.
One question, asked of every document.
The same grid serves a close, a contract review or an audit request. What changes is the question you put to it. Each cell answers for one document, and shows what it read to get there.
Each row is a document and each column is a question. Answered cells show the figure and how many passages it came from, and the rest say Not stated.Matrix / 318 documents
Open any cell to see the passage the answer was read from, with the figure highlighted in the document’s own words.Matrix / The passage
When a document does not answer, the cell says so and records what was read: here, all five passages of a contract, none of which states a total. A checked cell can be locked, so a later run leaves it alone.Matrix / Not stated
By the work.
Ask what a vendor has billed, and get every invoice.
Each amount is quoted from its own document with a citation you can open. A figure that could not be traced to a quote is withheld from the answer rather than stated.
Every answer names what it read, and what it didn’t.
Each answer carries a coverage page: the documents it cited, the ones it read and found not to bear on the question, and the ones it did not examine, each named with the reason.
Charges that don’t look like the rest.
Detectors compare each charge with that merchant’s own history and flag outliers and possible duplicates, with the median and the number of charges behind every flag, and wait for you to keep or dismiss them.

In-House Finance
One controller. Every number still explainable.
Built for the finance lead at a company still running QuickBooks, not NetSuite: fifty to two hundred and fifty people, real close pressure, and no team downstream to catch what didn't get checked.
- Every reconciling item cited, not just totaled
- A close checklist that runs the same way each month
- Nothing posts to the books without your review
Accounting Firms
Many clients' books. One method across all of them.
A firm's conventions travel with every engagement instead of living in one preparer's head: the same rule for what counts as a duplicate, the same evidence standard, whether it's client four or client forty.
- Conventions defined once, applied to every client file
- A proposed rule change shows its reasoning before it's adopted
- New staff inherit the firm's judgment, not just its template
Founder-Led Finance
No controller yet. No room for surprises.
Built for the founder or early operator doing the books directly, before there's headcount to hand them to: the guardrails a controller would normally provide, without waiting to hire one.
- Flags what a controller would flag, before your accountant does
- A ledger investors and auditors can be handed directly
- Grows into the firm relationship you'll eventually need, no rebuild
