For many companies, Excel is the comfort zone. It’s familiar, flexible, and has “worked for years.” But when teams rely on spreadsheets to reconcile data or build recurring reports, Excel stops being a tool and starts becoming infrastructure. That’s where things break down. At scale, manual spreadsheets slow teams down, introduce inconsistencies, and make reporting depend on whoever last touched the file. The habit persists because it feels comfortable, not necessarily becaus

When a company loses trust in its data, every decision slows down. This is what we call the Distrust Gap. It is the space between what the data says and what people believe it says. The gap usually forms when different teams filter, transform, or visualize data in their own ways. Each version appears correct on its own, but together they create competing “truths.” Once this happens, alignment becomes difficult, even for companies with strong technical foundations. The goal is

Cloud infrastructures rarely fail for technical reasons. More often, they fail financially. Over time, as teams change and projects evolve, costs accumulate, dependencies are forgotten, and workloads keep running “just in case.” Sisifo helps organizations audit, redesign, and govern their cloud and data environments so that costs reflect actual business value. Across industries, we’ve seen redundant pipelines, orphaned servers, duplicated storage, and dashboards querying tera

Most finance teams still rely on manual spreadsheets, isolated dashboards, and static models that struggle to adapt to fast-changing markets. CFOs spend days consolidating data before they can even begin to make decisions, and forecasts are often disconnected from actual transactional systems. The result is a process that’s time-consuming, fragile, and usually outdated by the time it’s approved. A More Practical Approach to Forecasting AI models can help automate much of the

Most companies still treat pricing as a planning exercise—lists in Excel, rules buried in emails, approvals handled manually. But few actually execute prices consistently across channels, segments, and sales motions. That’s often where profitability starts to leak. Why Pricing Execution Matters At Sisifo Analytics , we’ve seen how the disconnect between pricing strategy and pricing execution quietly erodes margins. That’s why we build elastic, data-driven pricing systems

When the recent AWS outage hit, it reminded everyone that no cloud is immune. The question isn’t if AWS will go down — it’s how quickly your business can get back up. At Sisifo, we’ve seen too many infrastructures where “ disaster recovery ” lives inside a PowerPoint or an engineer’s head. So when outages happen, teams wait for AWS to fix the problem instead of recovering before AWS resolves it. The Real Impact of an AWS Outage Hours of downtime while teams scramble to find
