We're excited to announce the release of the Tagger Agent for Desktop, which will transform your upcoming reporting season’s workflow.

Three AI skills, one complete solution

The Lucanet Tagger Agent brings comprehensive AI automation to your entire XBRL reporting process through three specialized capabilities:

Narrative tagging processes your complete document using our own AI-processing pipeline, automatically identifying and tagging narrative elements throughout your financial statements. Unlock productivity for your finance teams that would be stuck reviewing page-by-page manually for hours, giving them a tool to make this happen in minutes.
Numeric table tagging intelligently detects tables, analyzes financial data structures, and automatically tags numeric values while creating necessary extensions and establishing proper anchoring, eliminating the tedious manual work of cell-by-cell tagging.
Calculation linkbase creation identifies mathematical relationships between tagged elements and automatically builds validation rules, dramatically reducing both time consumption and risk of calculation errors.

Together, these three skills transform XBRL report creation from a specialized, days-long process into an efficient workflow that any finance professional can manage in hours rather than days.

Rigorously tested for real-world accuracy

Quality and reliability are paramount when it comes to regulatory reporting. We've conducted extensive benchmarking of the Tagger Agent against real-world, human-tagged reports to ensure it meets the highest standards of accuracy.

Our testing demonstrates consistent accuracy ratings above 80% across diverse report types and languages. What's particularly encouraging is feedback from early testing partners: in several cases, the Lucanet Tagger Agent identified additional tagging opportunities that human experts had missed, suggesting new or alternative tags that improved overall report quality. This demonstrates that AI automation can actually enhance the thoroughness and accuracy of your XBRL compliance, in addition to freeing up time and minds from tedious tagging workflows.

Work smarter while AI works in the background

The Tagger Agent operates in the background, freeing you to focus on other critical tasks during the processing window. Simply load your document, select your taxonomy, and let the AI agents work in parallel while you attend to other responsibilities.

When processing is completed you'll review the AI-generated tags. This human-in-the-loop approach ensures you maintain full control and responsibility for your final report while the Tagger Agent accelerates your daily processes, workflows and provides expert suggestions, ensuring governance, accountability for validation and final approval.

This workflow shift is fundamental: instead of spending days manually creating tags from scratch, you invest your time reviewing and refining AI suggestions, focusing your expertise where it matters most.

Built for European reporting standards

Lucanet Tagger Agent supports all IFRS-based reporting requirements, including ESEF (European Single Electronic Format), UKSEF, and IFRS-based NL GAAP filings. We're launching with multi-language support for English, German, and Swedish reports, with additional languages planned for future releases.

This initial release supports PDF-based reports, with Word document (.docx) support following in early 2026 as part of our continuous enhancement roadmap.

Desktop first, platform integration ahead

We're releasing the Tagger Agent for Desktop first to ensure every user can benefit from AI automation during the upcoming reporting season starting in January next year. This approach allows us to deliver immediate value while we finalize seamless integration with the broader Lucanet CFO Solution Platform.

Ready for your reporting season

The November 2025 release ensures you have time to familiarize yourself with the AI-powered workflow before the busiest reporting period begins. Whether you're preparing your first XBRL report or your hundredth, the Tagger Agent enables you to achieve compliance faster, more accurately, and at a fraction of traditional costs.
