Where audit season leaks time.

6h

Chasing PBC items

Every week of busy season. Trial balances, confirmations, count sheets: requested once, then chased across three reminder rounds.

A real Friday email"Hi Hana, friendly reminder nr. 3: 7 items are still open on the request list for the FY25 audit…"
31

Open requests found on day one

Across the team's engagements: items asked for in threads, tracked nowhere, living in individual memories.

Buried in a thread"…and while you're at it, could we also get the June bank statements?"
2h

Sunday status archaeology

Rebuilding the outstanding-items status for Monday's team call, engagement by engagement, from the inbox.

Pidgy, on the engagement.

01 · per engagement

The PBC list, live.

Every engagement shows its outstanding requests with owner, age, and status. One list, always current, instead of an Excel file with a version number nobody trusts.

Client replies become audit to-dos.

Hana's answer lands, the open items tick off, and the follow-on work is created with a deadline, delegated to the senior in one click. Nothing depends on Astrid re-reading the thread.

Outstanding items chase themselves.

Pidgy shows which requests have gone quiet and how long, with a reminder drafted in Astrid's voice for each. Tone picked, word tweaked, sent. Seven open items chased before the standup.

Hi Hana, quick nudge from our side: 7 items are still open on the FY25 request list. You can add them via your secure link. Happy to walk through any of them.

Evidence arrives via magic link.

The client gets one secure link, no login, no account: their own request list with what's needed and by when, upload in place. Sensitive evidence stops travelling as email attachments.

Fieldwork weeks, planned.

Requests, reviews and site days get dragged into calendar blocks before the team is on location. Fieldwork starts with evidence on the table instead of inbox archaeology.

Frequently asked questions.

How does Pidgy connect to our email?+
Pidgy connects to Gmail and Outlook with read access per mailbox. It extracts requests, deadlines, and client commitments into the engagement overview. Nothing is sent without your say.
Is it appropriate for audit evidence?+
Data stays in the EU, processing is GDPR-compliant, and access is scoped per mailbox. The magic link moves evidence out of email attachments into a tracked, per-client list.
Does it survive busy season?+
That's when it earns its keep. Pidgy triages while the team is in fieldwork, keeps every engagement's outstanding list current, and holds a chase draft ready for each open item.
Do clients need an account?+
No. Clients get a secure magic link that opens their own request list: what's needed, by when, upload in place. No login, no password, no new tool to roll out.
What does it cost?+
Simple monthly pricing per mailbox, announced at launch. We onboard from the waitlist in order, so early joiners fly first.
