Client invoices, PayPal payments, stock royalties — sorted apart and matched.

Give your AI your PayPal wallet, client invoices, deposit receipts, and bank statements. Personal PayPal charges are pulled out of business income, and deposits with no invoice are flagged.

The parts that eat your evening.

  • Income arrives three ways — direct invoices, PayPal client payments, and stock royalties from Adobe, Shutterstock, and Zazzle — all needing to be sorted apart
  • 50/50 wedding deposits get paid on PayPal, then a separate net transfer moves cash to the bank, so the deposit and the transfer look like two different things
  • Personal charges sneak into the same PayPal wallet as the business
What FinStat caught in this case

It pulls two personal charges out of the PayPal wallet — an $80 gift to her sister and a $45 gas reimbursement — then flags the $800 Santa Fe Arts Council deposit with no invoice and the missing Rio Verde Visa statement behind $386.40 and $412.30 checking payments.

Reconciled to the bank. Then ask your AI anything about your books.

Figures from the Iris Calloway Photography sample case — a fictional business — each transaction tied to its source document, balanced and review-ready.

Once connected, two steps.

  1. Give your AI the documents.

    Give your AI your statements, payouts, receipts, and bills — attach them, then say: run my books. Your statements are processed only for the work you ask for and never sold; they go to the AI sub-processors on our subprocessor list to be read.

  2. Ask for any report.

    “Give me a P&L.” “Reconcile May.” “Show the uncategorized transactions.” Review-ready accounting output, in chat. Each entry traces to its source line, so you can question any number in the chat.
