Introducing ALICE™
ALICE™, powered by Grant Thornton dGTL, is an Intelligent Automation platform that governs, manages and monitors your business. ALICE™ combines artificial intelligence with cognitive capabilities to create digital services to assist those charged with governance, management and monitoring with real-time and continuous visibility into a business. She saves human effort so that it can be applied to more judgmental and higher-risk areas of business.
Deployment of the ALICE™ platform within your business is seamless. The platform is easily manageable; it is secure, scalable, system and industry-agnostic and API-enabled. Digital services are created by the ALICE™ team in a matter of days and are run remotely in an uninterrupted manner.
A solutionist
Embedded within the ALICE™ platform is scale, security, fully managed infrastructure, auditability, auto- provisioning, connectivity, real-time, continuous and/or periodic monitoring, quick and easy deployments and customisation. She can be shaped to meet your business needs or according to what problem you are solving.
A digital worker
Through her digital services, ALICE™ augments and optimises human effort by providing more coverage, more scale, more automation, more real-time and continuous monitoring, more intelligence and more value-add in a global and remote manner. She affords human effort to be applied to more judgemental and higher-risk areas of the business so that organisations can do more with the same or less.
A digital collaborator
ALICE™ integrates multiple and disparate sources of data from a wide variety of business disciplines into a cohesive and intelligent lens through which various stakeholders can have real-time insights of the business. She connects you to your business remotely allowing for uninterrupted monitoring of performance.

How does ALICE™ simplify things?
ALICE™ translates human logic into reusable algorithms.
Here’s how:
With technology taking over the world, assurance professionals are expected to provide full coverage over populations. ALICE™ eliminates manual labour of sample testing by activating her digital workforce, which is embedded with intelligent automation and robotic processing. This allows you to optimise routine and repetitive audit procedures by getting concise and accurate results.
ALICE™ allows you to either consume its pre-build control procedures or build your customised control procedures on its platform. This helps in getting test results quickly, which can then be visualised under default reports, dashboards and working papers. This can also be integrated into existing GRC platforms or business intelligence tools of your choice.
ALICE™ makes elevated skills in artificial intelligence and data science accessible to the assurance community. She can seamlessly access historical data, scalable infrastructure to analyse such data and then applying intelligence to such data in the form of predictive modelling and/or machine learning. It is not like how people are doing same set of things with different tools – you have the combination of everything
Through its prebuilt control procedures, ALICE™ has the power to act intuitively. She integrates disparate and multiple sources of data from a wide variety of business disciplines into a cohesive and intelligent lens through which various stakeholders can have more clarity and visibility of their business functions.
