Billing Drift Detector
Verify if AUM and billing fees have drifted significantly over recent periods. Detect anomalies in fee calculations to ensure billing consistency and revenue accuracy.
Why This Matters
Fee calculation drift creates revenue leakage and client trust issues. Small billing inconsistencies compound over time, creating both financial and relationship damage.
Billing consistency protects both revenue and relationships. Drift should be detected systematically, not discovered by clients.
What This Agent Automates
- check_circle Analyzes AUM changes against billed fees across multiple periods
- check_circle Detects unusual variance patterns in fee calculations by account
- check_circle Flags accounts where effective fee rate deviates from agreement
- check_circle Compares billing methodology consistency across similar accounts
- check_circle Generates variance reports prioritized by financial impact
What It Eliminates
- close Manual sampling of billing accuracy across hundreds of accounts
- close Revenue leakage from systematic underbilling errors
- close Client complaints from overbilling that could have been caught
- close Hours spent investigating billing questions without historical analysis
How It Works
Analyze
Historical AUM values, billed fees, fee schedules, agreements.
Calculate
Expected fees vs actual fees, variance patterns over time.
Flag
Accounts with unusual drift, systematic errors, anomalies.
Report
Prioritized variance list with specific account-level details.
Example Outputs
Billing variance detected: Account 34567 billed $2,800 Q4 but calculated fee should be $3,125 (1.25% on $1M average AUM).
Suggested action: Review calculation methodology and issue corrected invoice or document approved exception.
Systematic underbilling: 23 accounts consistently billed at 0.85% despite 1.00% agreement terms (estimated $47K annual revenue loss).
Suggested action: Audit billing system configuration and issue correction invoices for affected accounts.
Billing consistency verified: All sampled accounts billed within 0.5% of agreement terms. No systematic drift detected.
Suggested action: Billing process operating correctly. No remediation required.
