Limelight
Cloud FP&A platform for budgeting, forecasting and automated financial reporting with AI, built for SMBs and mid-market
Overview
Limelight is an FP&A platform replacing Excel for budgeting, financial forecasting, and workforce planning by finance teams in SMBs and mid-market. It consolidates data from multiple sources (ERPs, HRIS, CRM), builds multidimensional forecast models with drill-down capability, and automatically generates board-ready financial reports that update in real time. Integrated AI assists with trend analysis and narrative generation. The platform emphasizes transparent pricing ("all features included, no module pricing") with two tiers: Starter (up to 5 users) and Unlimited (unlimited users).
Limelight offers no French-language interface: the product is commercialized and supported exclusively in English. No documented public API is available for custom integrations: the platform relies on 800+ pre-built connectors covering major ERPs (Sage Intacct, Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, SAP) and payroll systems. A recent Power BI integration (announced April 2025) extends visualization capabilities. Exact pricing is not public and must be requested directly from Limelight: without reliable market estimates available, the "mid-market" positioning suggests a budget in the upper range of FP&A solutions.
Our verdict
Best for SMBs and mid-market managing structured budgeting processes with finance resources to use a dedicated FP&A tool more robust than Metabase or Looker for reporting. Not for you if: you need an API to connect Limelight to other systems or your finance team lacks financial modeling experience. The product requires domain expertise for full potential.
