Example
"Software Expense in July is 2.4× its 6-month baseline (2,340 vs 980). Two annual renewals?"

- Anomaly — A transaction or total that departs from your own history enough to be worth a look: a duplicate charge, an outlier amount, a missing recurring payment.
- Baseline — What "normal" looks like for an account or payee in your books, learned from recent months. Anomalies are measured against it.
- Alison — The accounting teammate. Categorizes bank transactions, drafts journal entries, watches for anomalies, and asks for approval before anything that moves money.
- Close exception — Something that blocks a monthly close: an uncategorized transaction, an unreconciled statement, an unbalanced clearing account.
- Category variance — A read-only comparison of each account across periods: this month vs last, same month last year, or every month of the fiscal year.
