Tellius AI features and pricing (October 2026)

Tellius is an AI analytics platform for large companies that answers business questions in plain language across connected data. Its finance solution helps FP&A teams explain budget variances, monitor cost centers and draft P&L commentary for management and board reporting.

Tellius combines data integration and preparation, a semantic layer, dashboards, automated insights and machine learning in one platform. Its assistant Kaiya answers questions, and with version 6.4 it also runs recurring Missions on a schedule and builds Kaiya Apps for teams. The finance solution understands general ledger hierarchies, charts of accounts and budget versus actual logic, and connects to NetSuite, SAP, Anaplan and Snowflake. Finance is one use case next to pharma, consumer goods and software. Named customers include PepsiCo, eBay, Novo Nordisk, Bayer and Regeneron. Tellius is headquartered in Herndon, Virginia, with an office in Bengaluru. It suits companies with a central FP&A or data team and a cloud data warehouse.

• Decomposes budget variancesTellius splits revenue and cost variances into price, volume, mix and timing effects and ranks the drivers by contribution, based on general ledger and budget data. Controllers see why a line moved without building the bridge by hand in a spreadsheet.
• Watches cost centersFinance agents compare budget and actuals across cost centers and entities and send alerts when a variance crosses a threshold or a trend points to an overrun. Budget owners hear about a problem while there is still time to act before the quarterly review.
• Checks forecast accuracyThe platform compares forecasts and planning versions with actuals by entity and product line and points out systematic over or under forecasting. FP&A can talk to the teams whose numbers drift in the same direction every quarter.
• Drafts P&L commentaryAfter a general ledger refresh, agents run the P&L variance analysis, build waterfall charts and draft executive summaries and EBITDA commentary for the board pack. The vendor states that monthly packs which took days now take minutes, and every figure can be traced.
• Answers ad hoc questionsBusiness partners ask questions such as why SG&A is over budget in one department and get an answer with chart and explanation from governed definitions. Kaiya can also run the same question as a scheduled Mission, so recurring checks need no analyst.

• A general analytics platform with a finance solution on top, so FP&A and commercial teams work on the same semantic layer and definitions.
• The Enterprise plan can run in Tellius Cloud, in the customer's own cloud or on premises.
• Premium covers up to 10 users, both plans are priced on request, and a 30-day free trial is offered.

Tellius is headquartered in Herndon, Virginia, with an office in Bengaluru, and names US companies such as PepsiCo, eBay and Regeneron as customers.

Tellius publishes no prices, and single sign-on, APIs, automated machine learning and customer cloud or on-premises deployment are reserved for Enterprise. The privacy policy says data may be processed in the United States or other countries, so ask where your data will be stored and request a data processing agreement if EU personal data is involved. Budget time for the semantic layer over ERP and planning data, since answers depend on clean definitions.
