163 hours

“the team automates an average of 163 hours of finance work every month”

What happened

Perplexity's small finance team uses Ramp's vendor-specific corporate cards with preset spend controls, an Accounting Agent that auto-codes card transactions, and bill pay with dynamic approval routing. This lets them handle high transaction volume and month-end close without adding headcount.

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

  • 115 hours“The biggest driver is the monthly close, which Ramp compresses by roughly 115 hours per month.”
  • 28 hours“That same Agent accounts for another approximately 28 hours of GL coding time saved each month.”
  • 16 hours“The vendor-specific card program eliminates roughly 16 hours of monthly card administration.”
  • $5M“Combined with Ramp’s cashback on every card transaction, Ramp has generated over $5M in cumulative savings for Perplexity.”

Add it up: the team automates an average of 163 hours of finance work every month—roughly the equivalent of a full-time hire’s workload, redirected to more strategic work.
