RAiNMonsoon — the intelligence behind our work.
Monsoon lets RAiN test complete populations on defined procedures instead of samples, so issues surface sooner and our people spend their time on what the numbers mean. It is an agentic AI platform developed by PEAQ, the technology division of RAiN Chartered Accountants, and professional judgement stays firmly in human hands.
What Monsoon is
Built by auditors, Monsoon connects to virtually any system or document, analyses complete sets of available data on defined procedures and uses AI agents to automate complex, data-intensive work. It can monitor risk, manage compliance, automate financial reporting and support statutory audits. Technology provides the intelligence. People provide the judgement.
How Monsoon works
- Connect your dataMonsoon connects to existing accounting software, ERP systems and cloud applications, or information is uploaded securely through the Collaborate Portal.
- Understand your businessIt reads your data, documents, policies and business rules, and builds a knowledge base of how your organisation works.
- Deploy AI agentsSpecialised agents each perform a defined task: analysing information, monitoring risk, reviewing transactions.
- Run intelligent solutionsRadar, Equinox and Cyclone automate complete processes, with professional oversight at every gate.
- Collaborate securelyDocuments are requested, uploaded, reviewed and approved in one secure place, instead of long email chains.
- Keep complete transparencyEvery action is recorded, from AI activity to approvals, so the whole engagement is traceable. confirm: align the steps with the Monsoon site, which describes five stages: connect, ground, reason, deliver, verify
What the technology makes possible
- Complete populations, not samplesWhere a procedure is defined and the data is available, Monsoon tests the full population instead of a sample.
- Multi-step work, done end to endAgents are given a goal, not a single prompt: they plan, complete multiple tasks across sources and keep working within approved rules until the objective is met. This is agentic AI.
- Figures you can reproduceAI reads documents and finds patterns; calculations, reconciliations and statements are computed deterministically, so every figure can be reproduced.
- Answers traced to their sourceYour records become connected entities and relationships, so answers are grounded in how things actually relate, and traceable to their source.
- Outputs that show any later changeFinancial statements and audit outputs are hash-sealed, so they can be independently verified.
- Professional judgement firstAgents follow methodologies we approve, and every result is reviewed by an experienced professional before it informs a decision.
