  • Recurring bills detected + auto-categorised after 2 occurrences
  • Photo of a receipt → OCR → draft expense (mobile)
  • Email-to-expense inbox (forward a bill, it lands in review)

Reporting

  • P&L by category for any date range
  • Year-over-year comparison with trend line per category
  • Budget vs actual with alerts on overrun
  • Tax-ready exports: BAS (AU), GST (NZ), sales-tax (US)

Accountant Handoff
