Built by Accountants, for Accountants

We built this with input from Australian accounting firms managing 2,000+ clients. Every use case below comes from real workshops and real deployments. Your AI Employee understands Xero, GST, BAS, and the way Australian practices actually work.

Xero Accounting Automation

Finance Skills add-on

Real capabilities deployed for Australian accounting firms. Every feature below is built and tested with Xero production data.

BAS Preparation and Review

REAL

Cross-verifies GST allocations across your client files, detects discrepancies, and catches errors before lodgement. Real example: detected material GST double-counting that a professional bookkeeper missed.

GST Allocation and Reconciliation

REAL

Reviews every transaction for correct GST treatment. Flags overclaims on overseas vendors (AWS, GoDaddy, LinkedIn), underclaims, and wrong account codes. Generates exception reports with specific items to fix.

Multi-Client Xero Management

Manage multiple client Xero organisations from a single interface. Run health checks across all orgs, switch between clients, and maintain context as you work.

White-Label Financial Reports

REAL

Generate branded P&L reports, balance sheets, and cash flow analyses under your firm's branding. Your logo, your colours, your firm name. Real example: reports generated under "StellarBookkeeping" brand for end-client distribution.

Accounts Payable Automation

REAL

Reads invoice emails, extracts key data via OCR, creates draft bills in Xero with correct coding and source document attached. One accountant's reaction: "That replaces HubDoc."

Invoice Lifecycle Management

REAL

End-to-end invoice processing: email extraction, Xero bill creation, payment tracking via Wise. Real example: managed international split USD payments across 3 phases for a single supplier.

Expense Audit and GST Verification

REAL

Cross-checks every transaction against your chart of accounts and GST rules. Real example: caught 20 miscategorised expenses and $142 in incorrect GST claims that a professional bookkeeper missed.

Automated Receipt Matching

REAL

Searches your client's email for invoices and receipts, matches them to bank transactions by vendor and amount, generates PDF receipts, and attaches them to Xero. Real example: found and attached 38 missing receipts in one session.

Payment Tracking and Chasing

REAL

Tracks overdue invoices across all clients and sends professional payment reminders. Real example: chased an $11,000 overdue invoice with a single prompt.

Xero Health Check Across All Clients

Comprehensive health check: overdue invoices, unreconciled transactions, missing data, draft items. Schedule it to run daily or weekly. Set and forget.

Cash Flow Analysis

Monitors cash position across bank accounts, alerts to upcoming payments, low balances, and unusual transactions. Generates cash flow summaries on demand.

Wise Banking Integration

Multi-currency international payments alongside Xero. Check balances, view transactions, manage FX. Ideal for firms with international suppliers or clients.

Practice Management

Included in base plan

Streamline the operational side of your practice. These capabilities come standard with every AI Employee deployment.

Email Triage and Document Filing

REAL

Reads multiple practice inboxes, classifies emails by client, extracts attachments, and files to correct folders. The number one pain point raised by every accounting firm we spoke to.

Client Document Chasing

Identifies unreconciled items in Xero, generates a list of missing documents, emails clients requesting receipts and statements, and auto-follows-up if no reply within your set timeframe.

Professional Document Creation

Creates proposals, engagement letters, client reports, and presentations in PDF, DOCX, XLSX, and PPTX. Tailored to your firm's branding with polished, professional output.

Practice CRM (Built-in)

Track prospects, pipeline stages, and client interactions without external CRM software. Real example: a bookkeeping startup built a 63-lead, 8-stage pipeline in one session.

Client Communication

Professional emails drafted on behalf of your practice. Maintains your firm's tone and style. Drafts for your review before sending.

Custom Skill Creation

Teach your AI Employee your specific workflows. It learns and repeats them perfectly. Real example: four accounting firms have created reusable skills for their unique processes.

Reports & Data

Included with Finance Skills

Generate client-ready financial reports with your branding. Professional output that rivals what a skilled analyst would produce.

Profit and Loss Reporting

Iteratively refined, branded P&L reports styled to your client's colours and logo. Delivered as professional PDF.

Spreadsheet Analysis

Processes Excel and CSV files with formulas, formatting, and charts. Transforms raw data into client-ready reports.

Budget vs Actuals

Custom report templates with automated Xero data pulls. Monthly actuals update against budgets in your format, not Xero's standard reports.

Frequently Asked Questions

What accounting software does the AI Employee connect to?

The AI Employee has a production integration with Xero, including full read/write access to invoices, bills, bank transactions, contacts, and reports. MYOB and QuickBooks integrations are coming soon.

Can it manage multiple client Xero organisations?

Yes. Your AI Employee can switch between multiple client Xero organisations from a single interface. Run health checks across all orgs, pull reports for any client, and maintain context as you work across your portfolio.

Will it send emails or make changes without my approval?

No. By default, your AI Employee drafts emails and documents for your review before sending. You can also enable Conservative Security Mode for additional guardrails, such as read-only financial data access and requiring confirmation before any external communication.

Is client financial data safe?

Yes. Each AI Employee runs on a dedicated server hosted on Sydney AWS. Your client data is protected under Australian privacy law, encrypted at rest and in transit, and never shared with other customers or used for training.

Can I white-label reports with my firm's branding?

Yes. Your AI Employee generates branded financial reports using your firm's logo, colours, fonts, and firm name. Reports are delivered as professional PDFs ready for client distribution.

How does it handle GST/BAS?

The AI Employee cross-checks every transaction for correct GST treatment. It flags overclaims on overseas vendors (such as AWS, GoDaddy, and LinkedIn), underclaims, and incorrect account codes. It generates exception reports listing specific items that need attention before BAS lodgement.
