What happened
Bolt uses Pigment for business margin and performance, workforce planning, OpEx planning, and P&L reporting, replacing a previous planning platform that was slow enough that the finance team often fell back on Google Sheets. The use cases reach nearly 500 users across finance, HR, and departmental budget owners.

- 800“We have 800 metrics already in our model, which will continue to grow.”
I’d estimate we’re at least 10 times more efficient during the planning process. We’re not just waiting and hoping that the system will operate. We actually interact with the system, and spend more time understanding our plans, understanding business constraints, and optimizing the plans.
