Is it safe to process my financial data with Agentic AI?
Yes. Nominal was built from day one with security at its core. Your financial data is never shared with external AI models and is always processed securely within our platform. We are fully SOC 1 and SOC 2 compliant and go beyond baseline controls to ensure your information stays private, protected, and audit-ready.
How does Nominal compare to traditional financial close solutions?
Nominal adapts and enhances your existing accounting and reconciliation workflows. Think of it as your financial close digital workforce - automating repetitive tasks, providing intelligent insights, and letting you focus on strategic priorities while the AI Agents handle the heavy lifting.
What is the difference between Nominal and BlackLine?
Unlike BlackLine, which relies on templates and manual configurations, Nominal uses AI agents that learn your workflows to automate reconciliations, flux, and reporting in real time. The platform also integrates directly with your existing ERP without requiring migration or heavy IT support.
How does Nominal compare to FloQast?
FloQast supports task tracking and checklist-based workflows, mostly for teams still using Excel. Nominal replaces those spreadsheets with intelligent automation that executes tasks, syncs across ERPs, and delivers full audit visibility for growing or global finance teams.
Who are BlackLine and FloQast competitors?
Nominal is a leading competitor to both BlackLine and FloQast, especially for teams managing complex close operations across multiple ERPs or entities. Other alternatives include Planful, Vena, and OneStream, though they vary in automation depth and ERP compatibility.
What makes Nominal different from other close software?
Nominal is the first AI native financial operations platform with agentic automation. Unlike tools that require preset rules or templates, it learns from your data and processes to surface anomalies, reduce risk, and accelerate close without changing your core systems.
