The G2 on Causal

Causal Overview

What is Causal?

Causal lets you build financial models effortlessly and share them with interactive, visual dashboards that everyone will understand. In Causal, you build your models out of variables, which you can then link together in simple plain-English formulae. This makes your models easy to understand and quick to build, so you can spend minutes, not days, on your models. When you're done, you can share the link to your model with stakeholders. They'll be able to view your model's outputs in a visual dashboard, rather than a jumble of tabs and complex formulae. Causal makes it simple to incorporate advanced modelling techniques like scenario analysis, sensitivity analysis, and uncertainty in your inputs. You can also integrate all of your most important data sources, from spreadsheet software like Sheets and Excel, to accounting platforms like Xero and Quickbooks.
