How AI is used

Accounts Draft is a suite of AI-powered tools designed for accountants and accounting practices. It helps automate tasks such as converting bank statements to Excel, extracting invoice data, and generating standard compliance documents.

The platform is designed for accounting professionals who handle repetitive administrative work. It supports various stages of the accounting lifecycle, from initial client onboarding and fee quoting to the review of draft accounts and tax research.

Buyers should note that the tool is browser-based and emphasizes data privacy by using secure API connections that do not train AI models on client data. Users should confirm if the specific document templates, such as ICAEW-compliant engagement letters, meet their local regulatory requirements.
