Workiva Unveils Intelligent Finance, GRC, and Sustainability to Accelerate AI Transformation for the Office of the CFO
9.9.2025 14:00:00 CEST | Business Wire | Press Release
Workiva Inc. (NYSE: WK), the world’s leading AI-powered platform for transparency, accountability, and trust, announced today at Amplify a major expansion of its intelligent platform, introducing agentic AI, unified data automation, and a modernized controls experience for the Office of the CFO. The new capabilities allow finance, GRC, and sustainability teams to streamline complex workflows, proactively manage risk, and deliver insights with speed and confidence.
Economic volatility, evolving regulations, and increasing complexity have left CFOs and their teams burdened by manual processes and siloed systems. In fact, nearly two-thirds of global practitioners say they lack the high-quality data and governance needed to manage these challenges, a gap that leaves organizations vulnerable to costly errors and missed performance opportunities.
Workiva’s latest innovations were built to meet this moment, embedding agentic AI directly into critical workflows, automating processes that slow teams down, and giving them continuous, connected insights in a secure, auditable platform.
“CFOs are responsible for more than ever before, and that responsibility demands technology that is specialized, secure, and built for high-stakes decisions,” said David Haila, Chief Technology Officer, Workiva. “We’re delivering that support through agentic AI, connected data, and controls you can trust.”
Customers Accelerate Performance with AI
Companies including PwC, Cognizant, StoneX, McCormick, and Playa Hotels & Resorts are using Workiva’s AI-powered platform to accelerate reporting cycles, improve collaboration across functions, and strengthen confidence in both financial and non-financial data.
- “I’ve saved 40% of my time with Workiva and its AI capabilities. It’s a dramatic shift that’s allowed me to focus on more strategic, high-value projects. That extra time hasn’t just made my day easier; it’s really helped me broaden my impact and take on responsibilities I never would have imagined before,” said Deepa Rao, sustainability governance lead at Cognizant.
- “Workiva AI gives us the confidence to move fast without compromising on trust. We're accelerating narrative development, streamlining the population completeness and analytics process, and anticipating the questions that matter most to our executive team. It's transforming how we work and boosting our efficiency and effectiveness,” said Natalie Denman, audit supervisor at Flowserve.

Plasma One Launches to Herald a New Era of Stablecoin Banking19.6.2026 14:29:00 CEST | Press Release
Plasma has today announced the launch of Plasma One, its flagship financial product designed to make digital dollars usable for everyday spending, sending and earning. Plasma One is designed to make stablecoins feel like money, only better - more accessible, reliable and efficient. For years, stablecoin adoption has been held back by a fragmented system and poor user experience. We have seen wallets in one place, exchanges in another, and costly off-ramps standing between digital dollars and daily life. Plasma One brings that experience together in a single app, giving users a simple way to spend, send and earn with stablecoins from one account with zero fees. Headquartered in London, the city that gave rise to Revolut, Wise and Monzo, Plasma is making a bigger bet, that the next generation of consumer banking will be built on stablecoin rails, not legacy banking infrastructure. Underneath Plasma One is the Plasma Network, Plasma’s own blockchain, purpose-built to move stablecoins inst
