Where the firm's margin leaks

5 silent leaks between the client inbox and final review.

30–40%

Of staff time spent on data entry

Posting invoices, account allocation, bank reconciliation, matching: production swallows the hours, advisory waits.

Shortage

Constant pressure on hiring

Experienced bookkeepers are scarce and expensive. Without a productivity lever, you trade off between taking new files and meeting deadlines.

Self-serve

Pricing pressure from new SaaS players

Self-serve SaaS players compress the price of pure production. The only durable defence is moving up the value chain into advisory.

1× / yr

Advisory reduced to the annual closing

SME owners want forecasts, cash-flow steering, tax arbitrage. Your team has no time left for that.

Sept 2026

Mandatory B2B e-invoicing

Factur-X format, certified PDPs, e-reporting: mandatory reception from 1 Sept 2026 for every business, staggered issuance through Sept 2027. A major IT project to absorb without breaking day-to-day production.

Primary use case

Assisted bookkeeping: OCR, allocation and direct push into your accounting software.

Your team drops the supplier batch (PDFs, photos, emails). The AI extracts header, lines and VAT, suggests the chart-of-accounts code (606100, 622600, 445660…), flags duplicates, drafts the journal entry. Your team validates in one click — they no longer key, they review.

  • Multi-format ingest: PDFs, smartphone photos, emails, factur-X (XML).
  • French chart of accounts: automatic allocation with per-client learning history.
  • Journal entry push to Cegid Expert, Sage, ACD, EBP, MyUnisoft, Pennylane.
  • Detection of duplicates, credit notes and outlier amounts (supplier anomalies).
  • Full audit trail: every entry traceable back to its source document.
Typical target: 50–70% data-entry reduction depending on file mix (results not guaranteed, to be validated by your pilot)
02

First-line AI agent for client questions

Answers recurring questions 24/7 (VAT, deadlines, missing receipts, portal access) using firm documentation and client files, with seamless escalation.

Target: 30–50% fewer low-value inbound emails
03

Automated management reports & cash-flow alerts

Monthly management one-pager pulled from the trial balance (revenue, margin, working capital, 90-day cash forecast), ready for the partner to comment.

Lever: 20–40% advisory revenue uplift
04

Anomaly detection & file quality control

Trial-balance scan to flag unusual entries, risky moving accounts, missed VAT and matching gaps — before the partner's final review.

Target: 30–50% less review back-and-forth

Our 4-step method

From first test file to multi-office rollout.

01

Production audit & scoping

Mapping of files, tools in place (Cegid, Sage, ACD, EBP, MyUnisoft, Pennylane, Dext), standard charts of accounts and per-portfolio allocation rules.

Week 1–2
02

Pilot on 5 client files

OCR + allocation + push on a test portfolio. Real measurement of time savings, side-by-side validation with the lead bookkeeper.

Week 3–6
03

Firm-wide industrialisation

Integrations live (API or standard imports), team training, integration into the review workflow, OEC + AI Act compliance dossier ready. End of AI Acceleration scope.

Week 6–8
04

Multi-office expansion & advisory

Roll-out of value-added missions (reports, forecasts, client agent), monthly quality supervision, team upskilling — scoped outside the AI Acceleration package.

Month 3+ — Industrialisation option (custom quote)

Ethics & regulatory framework

OEC, professional secrecy, GDPR, EU AI Act, factur-X — covered by default.

The French Order of Chartered Accountants (OEC) ethics code, professional secrecy obligations and GDPR demand strict handling of client financial data. We run on EU-only infrastructure, never reuse client data to train third-party models, enforce per-file isolation and full audit logging. On the EU AI Act side, the AI literacy duty for professional deployers (Article 4) has been in force since 2 February 2025 and is built into our rollout plan; rules on high-risk systems apply from August 2026. On the B2B e-invoicing side, reception via Partner Dematerialization Platforms (PDPs) certified by the French tax authority is mandatory from 1 September 2026, with staggered issuance through September 2027.
