AI bookkeeping, answered
What is AI bookkeeping?
AI bookkeeping is automated accounting in which an AI agent categorizes every transaction, reconciles bank feeds against invoices and bills, flags anomalies, and prepares month-end reports — work that used to require a human bookkeeper. HelloBooks runs all three loops continuously, then files compliance returns directly from the same ledger.
How accurate is AI bookkeeping categorization?
HelloBooks reaches 95%+ auto-categorization accuracy after the first month, because the AI learns your chart of accounts and vendor history. New transactions land already categorized; corrections you make are remembered so the same vendor is never re-asked.
Does AI bookkeeping replace my accountant?
No — it replaces the manual data-entry, reconciliation, and report-prep work that traditionally fills 80% of a bookkeeper's day. Your accountant still reviews, advises, and signs returns. HelloBooks makes the books they review accurate and ready in days, not weeks.
Is HelloBooks AI bookkeeping free?
Yes. The Free Plan ships HelloBooks' core accounting features with 2,500 AI credits every month and up to 2 users, no credit card required. Pro is $9.99/month with unlimited users.
Which compliance returns can AI bookkeeping file directly?
India: GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-2B reconciliation, e-invoicing (IRN), and e-way bills file directly via the Fynamics GSP. UK: MTD VAT submissions to HMRC. US: 1099 e-file and multi-state sales tax. UAE: FTA VAT returns. Return preparation is built for Australia (BAS GST), Canada (GST/HST + T4), Singapore (IRAS GST F5), and Kenya (KRA VAT3) — with direct e-filing to each authority on the roadmap. New Zealand (IRD GST) is on the roadmap.
How does AI bookkeeping handle bank feeds?
HelloBooks connects to 11,000+ US banks via Plaid plus direct integrations for India, UK, Australia, and Canada. Transactions arrive in real time and are auto-matched against invoices and bills with 95%+ accuracy. Multi-account, multi-currency reconciliation is supported on every paid plan.
Can I migrate from QuickBooks, Xero, or Tally to AI bookkeeping?
Yes. HelloBooks ships a guided migration from QuickBooks (USA company file), Xero, and Tally that brings your full data across — every transaction, contact, and report.
