Overview

Punchcard is a system designed for assurance engagements like financial statement audits and SOX control programs. Purpose-built for selecting, requesting, and testing audit evidence. Punchcard leverages assertion-driven AI agents that perform testing procedures from natural language instructions—just like an audit associate.

By combining critical workflows such as audit planning, client document requests, evidence testing, and workpaper documentation into one seamless platform, Agentive streamlines audit processes, reduces inefficiencies, and frees teams to focus on high-impact areas.
