Eight AI accounting vendors with an Accountio profile, side by side.
Listed alphabetically. Accountio does not rank vendors, and a featured listing does not change the order.
AI accounting software categorises transactions, reconciles accounts and prepares the books, with a person reviewing the work. The eight vendors here include software that a business or its accountants run, such as Digits, Kick and Truewind, and services such as Neno and Uplinq that pair AI with their own accountants. ANNA Money adds Auto Accountant, an AI service that prepares and files VAT, Corporation Tax and Self Assessment, to a business account. Basis and Outmin are built for accounting firms and their clients.
