# Variance Analyser

**Variances decomposed into drivers you can act on, not adjectives.**

A flux file that says "revenue up, expenses up" tells you nothing. This agent runs period-over-period, year-over-year, and budget-versus-actual flux analysis straight from NetSuite, screens every line against materiality thresholds, decomposes each material variance into its real drivers — price versus volume, headcount versus rate, one-time versus recurring — and separates timing noise from signals that deserve escalation. Every driver is quantified in dollars and percentages and traced back to the queries it ran. Strictly read-only: it explains the numbers, it never touches them.

## Trust and governance

This agent is **read-only in NetSuite**: it queries and analyses your data but pins no NetSuite write tools, so it cannot create, change, or send anything on your behalf.

All activity is captured in a full audit trail, agents use your existing NetSuite roles and permissions, and your data is never used to train models.

**Works with:** NetSuite
