Use Cases

1. Small Business Accounting Automation

Ideal for small business owners and finance professionals who need to efficiently handle daily accounting tasks. It enables users to quickly create invoices, track bills, and monitor payment statuses through natural language commands, without manually navigating complex accounting software interfaces.

2. Batch Invoice Processing and Export

When you need to generate customer invoices in bulk or export financial records, you can process multiple invoices at once and combine up to 25 invoices into a single PDF file, significantly improving month-end closing and financial archiving efficiency.

3. Multi-Organization Financial Management

Suitable for finance professionals managing multiple companies or branches. You can switch between organizations and centrally manage invoice, bill, and contact data, avoiding the need to repeatedly log in to multiple accounts.

Core Features

1. Intelligent Invoice Management

Supports creating professional invoices with multiple line items through natural language. You can customize invoice numbers, set payment due dates, add discount terms, and filter and manage invoice lists by status (sent, draft, overdue, paid, etc.). Once created, invoices can be exported directly as PDFs or sent to customers by email.

2. Bill and Payment Tracking

Monitor vendor bills and customer payments in real time. You can filter bills by status (paid, unpaid, partially paid, overdue) and view all payment records for a specific invoice, including amounts, dates, and payment methods, helping you stay informed about cash flow.

3. Contact and Organization Management

Provides powerful search capabilities for customer and vendor contacts. Contacts can be filtered by name, email address, company name, and other criteria. The system also supports retrieving all available organizations and obtaining organization IDs, which is a prerequisite for performing other operations. Contact data can be used directly for invoice creation and bill management.
