AI-driven Proof-of-Cash and Quality of Earnings support
Proof of Cash AI for Automating Quality of Earnings and Private Company Due Diligence
What QoEAgent does
QoEAgent is an artificial intelligence platform for proof of cash and quality of earnings analysis in lower middle market mergers and acquisitions. It ingests bank statements and general ledger exports, reconciles them transaction by transaction, and flags what does not tie for human review.
Two deliverables, on a clock: a complete proof of cash within 24 hours of data ingestion, and GAAP-formatted financial statements including reported EBITDA within 48. The same work done by hand takes about four weeks.

What that looks like on a real engagement
On a recent trailing-twelve-month engagement for a multi-site convenience store operator, the platform processed 431 bank statements across 36 bank accounts — manually scanned PDFs, not spreadsheet exports — and extracted 29,823 transactions: $100.7 million in deposits and $99.0 million in withdrawals. Revenue and expenses each reconciled to within one percent of bank statement cash receipts and disbursements, at a 99.4% average match rate. One variance was left flagged at the end: a $32 difference at a single location.
On the general ledger side, the same engagement covered 1,365,571 journal entries across 5,196 accounts and 44 sites, against a trial balance of 5,528 accounts over 36 months.
Three levels of work
- Flash Cash Review — rapid cash receipts and disbursements for a pre-LOI gut check.
- Proof-of-Cash Plus — full reconciliation, plus GAAP-formatted monthly and twelve-month classified income statements and balance sheets with reported EBITDA. $10,000 flat.
- QoE Essentials — adds a normalized EBITDA schedule, working capital and operating cycle metrics, customer concentration, and change-of-control review.
