NewGoverned Ask — plain-English answers on your fund data

Intelligence,
governed.

The category

Everything after the ERP.

Your finance system of record already holds the numbers. Orivian sits on top of it and decides what happens next: what council sees, what department heads see, what the public sees — and what each of them can ask.

Every answer comes from a governed semantic layer and carries its trace. When the data can’t support an answer, Orivian declines instead of guessing. That’s the difference between a chatbot on your data and intelligence you can put in front of an auditor.

Governed answers

An answer you can’t defend is worse than no answer.

Declines over wrong.

If a question falls outside the governed model, the answer is a clear decline — not a confident guess. Wrong numbers in a council packet cost more than no number.

Every answer traced.

Answers cite the governed mart and period they came from. Anyone reading one can see exactly which model produced it — and challenge it.

An audit record, not a chat log.

Orivian logs each question and its governed answer. When a number is questioned months later, you can reconstruct exactly what was asked, by whom, and when.

Why trust it

Credible where it counts.

Built by BI consultants

Orivian comes out of years of business-intelligence consulting — data models built for organizations where the numbers get challenged.

GASB-aligned reporting

Fund accounting, encumbrances, and budget-to-actual variance follow governmental accounting standards — not a corporate BI tool translated after the fact.

CGFOA & GFOA aligned

Reporting is shaped to the expectations Colorado and national government finance officers already hold their packets to.
