## What the story says

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.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Pigment and Bolt, not ours.

> 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.

- **nearly 500**: “use cases which touch nearly 500 Pigment users in roles ranging from FP&A and HR to departmental budget owners and management.”
