AI-Powered
AI-based accounting software that listens. Tell your AI what to do — create invoices, record bills, or snap a receipt. Our AI bookkeeping software handles the workflow from capture to categorization.
Reconciliation
95%+¹
AI matches transactions in real time. Bulk-reconcile in one click — no rules to write.
Local compliance
Transactions are categorised with local tax treatment suggested for review, so your accountant gets books that are ready to check and file from.
AI Payables
Let AI match invoices to payments and recommend approvals with confidence. Watch AI parse extracted line items, auto-match to existing inventory, and suggest mappings.
Migration
Switch without the stress. Migrate from QuickBooks, Xero, Tally, Zoho or Wave and bring your ledger across — every transaction, contact, item and opening balance — with a dry-run preview before you commit.
¹ 95%+ auto-match is an internal benchmark, not an audited figure
You stay in control
HelloBooks does the heavy lifting, but it never files or posts behind your back. The AI proposes; you and your accountant dispose — with a full audit trail and an undo on everything.
HelloBooks reads bills, categorises transactions and matches your bank feed — then hands you the result. Nothing posts to your ledger until you (or your accountant) confirm it.
A full audit trail logs what the AI suggested, what actually changed, who approved it and when — so month-end and any review start from a clean, defensible history.
Edit or unwind any AI-assisted entry, match or categorisation. Nothing is a one-way door, so an automation can never quietly corrupt your books.
Invite your CA or bookkeeper with reviewer or read-only access. Bills route through approval before payment, and returns wait for a human sign-off before they are filed.
One platform
Receivables, payables, banking, inventory, tax and reports share one ledger — so nothing is re-typed between apps and the AI agent sees the whole picture.
Create and send invoices, put retainers on recurring billing and let customers pay online. The AI agent matches every incoming payment to its invoice and chases the ones that are overdue.
Bills and receipts arrive by email or upload, OCR reads them, and the AI codes each line to the right account. Expense claims route for approval before anything is paid.
Bring in bank and card transactions and let AI reconciliation do the matching: a deposit to its invoice, a card swipe to its expense account. You review the exceptions, not every line.
Items, variants, units of measure and bills of materials live in the same ledger as your invoices and bills, so stock valuation is always current and reorder alerts fire before you run out.
Explore Inventory
Transactions are categorised with local tax treatment suggested for review, so your accountant gets books that are ready to check and file from.
Explore Local tax & compliance
Profit and loss, balance sheet and cash-flow statements update as transactions post. AP and AR aging and custom report layouts are a click away, with multi-entity views on the Business plan.
Why HelloBooks
Six reasons businesses pick HelloBooks over QuickBooks, Xero, Zoho Books and Tally — drawn from what the platform does today, not from a roadmap.
The AI Accounting Agent categorises transactions at 95%+ accuracy, reconciles feeds, drafts journal entries and closes the month — then hands you the result to approve. HelloBooks was built AI-first; QuickBooks and Tally bolted AI onto a twenty-year-old ledger.
US 1099 and multi-state sales tax, India GST with IRN e-invoicing and e-way bills, UK MTD-ready VAT, UAE VAT, Australia BAS GST preparation, Canada GST/HST and T4 preparation, and Singapore GST F5 preparation — all native, no per-country connector to license. Direct e-filing is live in India, Australia, the UK, the US and the UAE.
Live exchange rates, per-entity base currencies and consolidated reporting across entities are in every paid plan. Competitors gate multi-currency to an upper tier and meter the seats underneath it, so a cross-border team pays twice for the thing it needs most.
Direct Plaid connections are live in the US and Canada and are rolling out across the UK and the EU. Everywhere else, upload a PDF or CSV statement and the AI parses, categorises and matches every line against your invoices and bills — so no market waits on a banking integration to close its books.
HelloTime, the sibling product in the Meru Fin Tech suite, handles attendance, leave and payroll runs on the web and writes the payroll journals into HelloBooks — no CSV round trip, no month-end reconciliation between two systems. The HelloTime Attend mobile app for shift workers ships Q3 2026.
The Free Plan carries the core accounting features, 2 users, with no credit card. Pro is $39.99/month per entity with unlimited users and no per-seat fee. Plans are billed in US dollars; your books stay in your own currency.
Oman · VAT accounting
HelloBooks computes Oman VAT at 5% on every invoice and bill, reconciles your bank feeds with AI, and prepares your Oman Tax Authority VAT Return for you to file — all from a single ledger. Quarterly returns are due within 30 days of the quarter end. Mandatory registration applies when annual taxable supplies exceed OMR 38,500.
Country context, not a description of HelloBooks. Oman's VAT is the youngest of the four GCC systems in force, and the details that catch businesses out are the 30-day clock and the three-decimal rial rather than the rate itself.
Every invoice, bill and bank line carries a tax code that says how it is treated — standard-rated, zero-rated, exempt or out of scope. Statements are matched against those documents, AI categorisation proposes the ledger account, and the period totals for output VAT, input VAT and the net position fall out of the coded transactions.
The last step is yours: you open the OTA portal and submit. HelloBooks computes and prepares the return; it does not file it.
Oman-registered SMEs past the spreadsheet stage: trading and logistics businesses paying USD or AED suppliers out of an OMR account, contractors and services firms working to long retention cycles, and companies whose Omani entity reports alongside sister entities in the GCC. It is a weaker fit if payroll or withholding tax has to live in the same system — both are on the roadmap.
Direct bank feeds via Plaid are live in 20 countries today (the US, UK, Canada and Europe). For Oman, the fastest way to get your bank data into HelloBooks is statement import — and it works with any bank:
Export a PDF, CSV, or Excel statement from any bank in Oman and drop it into HelloBooks.
Every line is extracted, categorised, and matched to invoices or bills — in your local currency.
Confirm the AI's suggestions and reconcile the period. Nothing posts to your books without your say-so.
Multi-currency throughout, and your data stays private — HelloBooks never asks for your online-banking login. As open-banking coverage expands, direct connections will reach more markets over time.
No. HelloBooks computes output VAT, input VAT and the net position from your ledger and prepares the return; you sign in to the OTA portal and submit it. Direct e-filing via an OTA API is on the roadmap, not live today.
Within 30 days of the end of the calendar quarter, for both filing and payment. Because it is a 30-day window rather than a fixed date, the due date shifts with the length of the month.
Not mandatorily, if you stay under it on both the historical and the expected test. Voluntary registration opens at OMR 19,250 of taxable supplies or taxable expenses, and is usually worth it where input VAT is significant.
Yes. OMR amounts are held and totalled at the rial's own precision rather than rounded to two places, and foreign-currency documents are recorded at their transaction rate.
Not yet. Withholding tax computation on foreign payments, Oman payroll with end-of-service gratuity, and PASI contribution tracking are all on the roadmap. Today the product covers the ledger, VAT computation, invoicing and reporting.
General information as at the review date below, not tax advice. Confirm your position with the Oman Tax Authority or your adviser.

Yes — HelloBooks includes a guided QuickBooks USA migration that imports your company file (chart of accounts, customers, vendors, transactions, and history) in a single pass. It is a one-time data migration, not an ongoing two-way sync — once you are on HelloBooks, that is your source of truth.

Yes. HelloBooks has per-source importers for QuickBooks (Online and Desktop), Xero, Tally, Zoho Books and Wave, plus a generic CSV import for any other tool. Your chart of accounts, contacts, transactions, items and opening balances come across, and a dry-run preview with one-click rollback means nothing is final until you commit. Start at hellobooks.ai/migrate.
Your books are available from any browser or the HelloBooks mobile app, updates reach every account automatically with nothing to install, and your accountant works in the same live ledger instead of trading files. Bank feeds and AI categorization keep the numbers current between reviews, so month-end becomes a check rather than a catch-up.
Yes, by market. In India, HelloBooks files GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B directly and generates IRN e-invoices and e-way bills. In the US it tracks multi-state sales tax and prepares 1099s, and in the UK it keeps MTD-ready VAT records. In Australia, Canada, Singapore and Kenya it prepares BAS, GST/HST, GST F5 and VAT3 returns, with e-filing on the roadmap in those markets.
HelloBooks is independently attested under SOC 2 Type II — an attestation, not a certification. Security controls, data handling and sub-processors are documented in the HelloBooks Trust Center at hellobooks.ai/trust-center.
