Why Annual Reporting Is Broken — And How AnnualReports.ai Fixed It

Companies are moving away from printed annual reports by switching to AI-powered platform for faster reporting.

Since it is no longer a statutory requirement to print annual reports, there is no reason to use a financial printing company with outdated processes and limited technology. AI makes designing, writing, and translating reports significantly easier, and cheaper, but still many companies have not realised that technology can make their lives much easier.

A process that should be structured and repeatable often turns into a high-pressure scramble—consuming valuable hours and causing recurring inefficiencies across internal teams. If your current process suffers from at least two of the five problems below, AnnualReports.ai can help.

  • A slow, error-prone process involving repetitive manual tasks.
  • Multiple stakeholders across finance, legal, investor relations, and design.
  • Version control chaos, last-minute changes, and compliance risk.
  • Teams rely on Word documents, Excel files, and long email threads.
  • Stressful and time consuming coordination.
