## Warned against

- Microsoft Excel: 5 of 5 labels negative. "many experts recommend phasing it out of primary reconciliation workflows due to its complexity, lack of scalability, and high risk of errors" (Mistral Small, negative prompt)
- FloQast: 4 of 43 labels negative. "Some of the tools mentioned include FloQast, BlackLine, and AutoRek, which can be effective but may require additional time to address discrepancies." (Llama 4 Maverick, negative prompt)
- QuickBooks Online: 3 of 20 labels negative. "you've likely outgrown built-in tools (70–80% match rates at best)" (DeepSeek V4 Flash, paraphrase prompt)
