The OneStream Sensible AI portfolio, announced in May, is a set of packaged AI solutions that address pertinent needs of Finance leaders. They include Sensible ML, Sensible GenAI and Sensible AI Library forecasting and scenario planning. OneStream previewed the following AI capabilities added to this Sensible AI portfolio:

  • OneStream AI-Powered Anomaly Detection capability is part of the OneStream Sensible AI Library, the AI Anomaly Detection capability is a pre-packaged AI method that helps Finance leaders detect anomalies for data cleansing and reporting. By scanning thousands of transactions to detect unusual patterns or outliers, AI Anomaly Detection can uncover unexpected or duplicate entries, enabling Finance teams to quickly investigate and correct issues before the final close. This capability is currently of limited availability.
  • OneStream Sensible Machine Learning (ML) Scenario Modeling capability builds on the initial OneStream Sensible ML solution and creates real-time, AI-driven “what-if” forecasting scenarios using a company’s own enterprise information across operational and financial workstreams. Finance teams can isolate key business drivers, such as changes in interest rates, inflation, gas prices, new product introductions and plant shutdowns, and validate the scenarios and test their impact across forecasting, operational planning, workforce planning, sales planning and other areas.

Digitizing the Office of the CFO

In May, OneStream announced several innovations focused on digitizing core finance, including expanding its partnership with Microsoft with OneStream Certified Power BI Connector. This week, OneStream previewed a series of new innovations to make it easier for Finance leaders to deploy, report and consume financial reporting.   

  • OneStream Navigation Center streamlines access to reports and bookmarks critical audit and narrative documents, in one place. This solution enables Finance leaders to easily organize, tag and bookmark frequently used documents, audit reports, and set due dates for key tasks such as report reviews, deadlines and submissions. Users can also set due dates to ensure they are reviewed and ready for handover to auditors.
  • Microsoft Excel Enhancements make it easier than ever to copy, modify and analyze powerful data from OneStream with the commonly used tools in Microsoft’s Excel environment.   
  • Expanded Solution Exchange to Support Tax Pillar 2. To support the evolving needs of global organizations, the OneStream Solution Exchange has expanded its capabilities and solutions, welcoming its 100th solution at Splash EMEA.

This Is the Best Thing to Do With Your 2026 Military Pay Raise

This Is the Best Thing to Do With Your 2026 Military Pay Raise

Editor’s note: This is the fourth installment of New Year, New You, a weeklong look at your financial health headed into 2026. 

The military’s regularly occurring pay raises provide an opportunity that many civilians only dream of. Not only do the annual percentage increases troops receive each January provide frequent chances to rebalance financial priorities — savings vs. current standard of living — so do time-in-service increases for every two years of military service, not to mention promotions.

Two experts in military pay and personal finance — a retired admiral and a retired general, each at the head of their respective military mutual aid associations — advised taking a similarly predictable approach to managing each new raise: 

Cut it in half.

In one variation of the strategy, a service member simply adds to their savings: whatever it is they prioritize. In the other, consistent increases in retirement contributions soon add up to a desirable threshold.

Rainy Day Fund

The active military’s 3.8% pay raise in 2026 came in a percentage point higher than retirees and disabled veterans received, meaning troops “should be able to afford the market basket of goods that the average American is afforded,” said Michael Meese, a retired Army brigadier general and president of Armed Forces Mutual.

While the veterans’ lower rate relies exclusively on the rate of inflation, Congress has the option to offer more; and in doing so is making up for recent years when the pay raise didn’t keep up with unusually high inflation, Meese said.

“So this is helping us catch up a little bit.”

He also speculated that the government shutdown “upset a lot of people” and that widespread support of the 3.8% raise across party lines and in both houses of Congress showed “that it has confidence in the military and wants to take care of the military and restore government credibility with service men and women,” Meese said.

His suggestion for managing pay raises:

“If you’ve been living already without the pay raise and now you see this pay raise, if you can,” Meese advised, “I always said … you should save half and spend half,” Meese said. “That way, you don’t instantly increase your spending habits just because you see more money at the end of the month.” 

A service member who makes only $1,000 every two weeks, for example, gets another $38 every two weeks starting this month. Put $19 into savings, and you can put the other $19 toward “beer and pizza or whatever you’re going to do,” Meese said.

“That way you’re putting money away for a rainy day,” he said — to help prepare for a vacation, for example, “so you’re not putting those on a credit card.” If you set aside only $25 more per pay period, “at the end of the year, you’ve got an extra $300 in there, and that may be great for Christmas vacation or Christmas presents or something like that.”

Retirement Strategy

Brian Luther, retired rear admiral and the president and chief executive officer of Navy Mutual, recognizes that “personal finance is personal” — in other words, “every situation is different.” Nevertheless, he insists that “everyone should have a plan” that includes: 

  • What your cash flow is
  • Where your money is going
  • Where you need to go in the future

But even if you don’t know a lot of those details, Luther said, the most important thing:

Luther also advised an approach based on cutting the 3.8% pay raise in half, keeping half for expenses and putting the other half into the Thrift Savings Plan. Then “that pay will work for you until you need it in retirement,” Luther said. With every subsequent increase, put half into the TSP until you’re setting aside a full 15% of your pay.

For a relatively young service member, “Once you hit 15%, and [with] the 5% match from the government, that’s enough for your future,” Luther said.
