A free Pigment architecture review.

Walk a senior Pigment architect through your model for 45 minutes. Within five business days you get a written scorecard: what’s sound, what’s at risk, and what to fix first.

What is the free Pigment architecture review?

A 45-minute screen-share in which you walk one of our senior Pigment architects through your model. Within five business days you receive a short written scorecard: what’s sound, what’s at risk, and what to fix first. It is free, with no obligation.

What do you score?

Eight areas, each rated with a one-line reason and a suggested next step:

  • Model structure and dimensions: what the model plans at, and whether it should
  • Calculation performance and sparsity: where densification or heavy formulas slow things down
  • Data flows and integrations: what comes in, how reliably, and who owns it
  • Security and access rights: whether access matches how your organization works
  • Scenarios and versions: how plans, forecasts and what-ifs are kept apart
  • Boards and the user experience: whether people can find, trust and use the numbers
  • Ownership and governance: documentation, naming and change control after go-live
  • Readiness for Pigment AI agents: names, descriptions, annotations and AI data access

How is this different from asking the Modeler Agent to audit our workspace?

Pigment’s Modeler Agent can audit a workspace, and Pigment publishes a guide for doing it. Its documented limits are where a senior reviewer adds most:

  • The agent works from your permissions and your model alone; we trace the data back to the systems it comes from
  • The agent estimates performance; we watch your Boards and calculations run, live
  • The agent cannot judge whether the business logic is right; our team includes a former FP&A manager and a former chief accountant
  • We tell you what to fix first, in what order, and roughly how big each job is

Who is it for?

Finance teams that run Pigment or are partway through implementing it: a CFO, VP of finance, FP&A lead or model owner who wants an honest outside view. If you are still choosing a planning platform, we are happy to talk, but the review is designed for models that already exist.

What do you need from us?

Forty-five minutes with someone who knows the model well, and a screen-share. We will ask what the model is for, where it hurts, and what you plan to do with it next. Forty-five minutes shows the shape of a model, not every issue in it, so if the conversation goes well we may ask for an NDA and user access to look deeper before we write the scorecard.

Why is it free?

Because it is the fastest way for you to see how we think, and for us to see whether we can help. Many teams take the scorecard and fix things themselves, and that is fine. We take on a limited number of reviews each month so each one gets proper attention.
