August 1, 2024 — Corporate Finance Institute (CFI) is thrilled to announce the launch of Macabacus Lite, a productivity add-in for Excel, designed specifically for financial analysts working in browser-based versions of Excel or multiple operating systems. This new offering is part of CFI’s ongoing commitment to providing finance professionals with the tools they need to advance their careers and improve productivity.
In 2021, CFI acquired Macabacus, the leading Microsoft productivity add-in for finance professionals. This acquisition was a significant step towards CFI’s mission of helping finance professionals excel in their careers by not only offering practical training but also equipping them with essential tools to work efficiently.
Macabacus Lite is the latest addition to Macabacus’ suite of productivity tools. This free add-in streamlines routine tasks in Excel, saving financial analysts considerable time and effort. Macabacus Lite also serves as a platform for introducing groundbreaking features, such as the newest Macabacus AI-driven feature, Formulate.
Formulate leverages AI technology to replace hardcodes in financial statements with formulas, transforming a once tedious task that took 15-30 minutes into a simple click of a button. This feature underscores the dedication of CFI to enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of financial professionals’ work.
CFI CEO Anna Talerico stated, “Our relentless efforts to provide the best tools for finance professionals have culminated in the launch of Macabacus Lite.
