Why teams arrive

You’re here because
something didn’t add up.

Every number you act on arrives in a document from your CRO. Checking them all by hand is nobody’s day job, so mostly, nobody does. The budget always finds out.

What Halvo checks

Every number your CRO sends,
checked before you act on it.

From the change order on your desk to the exchange rate on a Korean invoice: the same read every time. The claim, the source, the arithmetic.

Who it's for

ClinOps signs it. The CFO defends it.
Finance pays it.

Whoever’s asking, the answer has sources.

Clinical operations
It reads the change order before you sign it.

Every assumption priced against the protocol and the visit history, in plain words.

You negotiate from the gap, not from zero.
The CFO
It’s how you know the number you give the board is real.

A board-ready projection with its drivers itemised and every figure traced to a cell.

Defensible, down to the cell it came from.
Finance
Every invoice checked against the contract before it’s paid.

The independent check your close leans on, with the evidence already attached.

Not another system to book entries in.
Regulatory adherence & data security

Built for a regulated industry.
Boring on purpose.

The record-keeping your QA, finance, and IT teams will ask about.

01
Append-only audit trail

Every action recorded with actor, timestamp, and reason. Nothing editable after the fact.

02
An immutable, versioned vault

Files cannot be silently altered. Every citation resolves to the exact document it came from.

03
Reproducible for your auditor

Same documents, same arithmetic, same answer, every time.

04
A human gate on every action

Halvo proposes; a named person confirms. Nothing reaches a counterparty automatically.

05
Your data stays yours

Never used to train models. Encrypted at rest and in transit, deleted on request.

06
Evidence of sponsor oversight

ICH E6(R2): you can outsource the work, never the responsibility.

FAQ

Fair questions.
We’d ask them too.

What is Halvo, in one sentence?

An independent financial read on your trial, built from the documents your CRO already sends, with every claim traced to the cell or clause it came from.

Does Halvo do change order management?

Yes. It’s the center of the product. Halvo reads every change order against the contract, the budget, and the work actually done, prices the difference, and drafts the response. You decide what goes back to the CRO.

Does an AI produce the numbers?

No. Every dollar is computed in code from the numbers read out of your documents, never written by a model. The AI reads, classifies and explains; it never makes up a figure. That boundary is enforced in the architecture, not in a policy document.

What do we need to give you?

The documents you already have: MSA, budget grid, change orders, invoices. Drop them in, or forward the email. No integration, no data entry.

How fast is first value?

Within the first session. On our demo study, Halvo flagged the monitoring budget as understated before setup finished: 120 contracted visit days against the roughly 188 the protocol implies, a $125,800 exposure held and tracked from day one.

Will this hurt our CRO relationship?

A challenge is citations and arithmetic, not an accusation. Most gaps are honest errors, and evidence keeps the conversation short and professional. Nothing is sent without your confirmation, and you control the tone.

Does it connect to our EDC or CTMS?

Not yet. Halvo runs entirely on documents today, deliberately, since that’s the fastest way to start. System connections are on the roadmap.

Is this an accounting or FP&A system?

No. Halvo doesn’t book entries, run your close, or replace your ERP or planning tools. It’s the independent check on the CRO’s numbers: the read your close and your forecast lean on.

Is our data safe?

Files are immutable and versioned, every action lands in an append-only audit trail, and nothing trains a model. Exportable any time.
