Cogny is an advanced AI-driven Excel plugin designed for extra-financial auditors, ESG consultants, and knowledge workers in finance and real estate. It simplifies the task of filling in spreadsheets for questionnaires, benchmarks, and due diligence reports by automatically generating answers from user-uploaded documents and data.Cogny allows users to upload relevant documents, select specific data, and define relevant inputs such as the question, answer type, and context. The plugin then uses this information to craft the most accurate and contextually relevant answers directly in your Excel spreadsheets. A RAG system helps users refine results by selecting or removing up to 20 text extracts from the uploaded sources.The added value of Cogny is in its audit trail—each answer is traceable to the exact source document used, and users have the flexibility to manually add, modify, or remove sources as needed. Whether you’re gathering ESG insights or conducting financial reviews, Cogny provides professional-level answers, fully integrated with your workflow and backed by a robust audit trail for transparency.Cogny is hosted on Azure servers based in Europe and operates exclusively within the Excel environment, ensuring your data remains secure and confidential.
