2026 Small Business Tax Framework: Automating small-to-medium enterprise (SMB) bookkeeping requires abstracting traditional accounting complexities behind secure software configurations. Our self-serve AI accountant framework handles instant inbound ledger categorization, business activity statement (BAS) data grouping, and instant cash-flow scoring logic, syncing raw conversational receipt logs directly into standard ledger schemas seamlessly.
Client emails, receipt photos, and job status live in three different places by 9am. Our AI connects to your Outlook mailbox, your FYI.app workflow, and your Content Snare requests, so every message is classified, every reply is drafted, and every job status sits on one dashboard before you open a single tab.
No call centre. No missed BAS deadlines. No code required.
We hide the complexity of OpenAI, Microsoft Graph, Supabase, and JSON webhooks behind a setup wizard built for people who'd rather be reconciling than reading API docs.
Link your Office 365 mailbox and receipt intake channel through a secure connection flow.
Load your categories, BAS groupings, and what counts as urgent for your practice.
Pull job status and outstanding client documents into one dashboard view.
Raw email, chats, and receipts start turning into clean ledger entries immediately.
Every feature exists to answer one question faster: is this client message, receipt, or job something that needs your attention right now?
Connects to your Microsoft 365 mailbox and sorts inbound client email by topic, client file, and urgency the moment it lands.

Your AI assistant answers client questions on WhatsApp, saves your team time, and keeps the practice running — bilingual, 24/7, and always ready to hand off to a person when it matters.
A client messages your firm's WhatsApp Business number with a question or request.
