Commission that lands before the invoice exists — flagged for follow-up.

Give your AI your commission invoices, trade show bills, hotel and meal receipts, and bank statements. Commission deposits are checked against invoices, and early payments or override bonuses with nothing to match are flagged.

The documents in this sample case.

Give these documents to your AI and say “run my books.”
Commission invoice — Hartland HVAC, $8,400
Commission invoice — Hartland, April orders
Commission invoice — AirFlow, $4,200
Trade show booth bill — paid 30 days late
Hotel receipt — AHR Expo Chicago
Business dinner — AHR Expo
Checking — April
Business Visa — April

The parts that eat your evening.

  • Revenue is 100% commission paid by three principals, so deposits have to be matched back to the right rep agreement and order period
  • Some commissions get collected before the invoice is issued — cash lands with no matching AR document in the folder
  • Override bonuses arrive folded into supplemental wires with no separate invoice
What FinStat caught in this case

It flags the AirFlow $3,840 and Meridian $3,200 April commissions that landed in May checking with no invoices issued yet, plus the $1,840 Hartland Q1 override bonus that came in as part of a supplemental wire with nothing to match.

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

Figures from the Ottercrest Sales Group LLC 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.
