Accounting Firms · MVP in 3 weeks
MVP in 3 weeks for accounting firms — ship an AI tool your team actually uses
Most accounting firms already know where the time goes: chasing invoices and receipts out of client inboxes and Drives, reconciling accounts that never quite tie at month-end, and drowning in categorisation work through tax season. What's missing is the engineering capacity to turn those pain points into internal tools. A Build Pod from Asaasin scopes, builds, and ships a working AI MVP in three weeks — wired into QuickBooks, Xero, or whatever ledger you already run — so your partners and staff accountants have something real to test before the next close.
What we build for Accounting Firms
Client intake agent that pulls receipts and invoices from shared inboxes
An AI agent watches a dedicated client email alias and Drive folder, extracts vendor, date, amount, GL hints, and tax codes, then pushes a draft transaction into your ledger for review. Staff stop playing inbox detective before every close.
Month-end reconciliation copilot that flags drift before the partner sees it
The MVP compares bank feeds, ledger entries, and sub-ledgers, surfaces unreconciled items with likely matches ranked by confidence, and explains each variance in plain English. Reviewers approve or reject instead of hunting line by line.
Tax-season categorisation assistant trained on your firm's chart of accounts
A categorisation model learns how your firm actually codes expenses for 1040, 1120, and 1065 clients, then pre-classifies transactions with citations to prior-year treatment. Preparers confirm rather than start from zero.
How a Build Pod fits
A Build Pod is a small, dedicated AI engineering team — product lead, engineers, and an AI specialist — that you subscribe to month-to-month instead of hiring in-house. For accounting firms, week one is discovery with your partners and ops lead: we watch how intake, reconciliation, or categorisation actually runs today, pick the workflow with the clearest ROI before tax season, and lock scope to something shippable.
Weeks two and three are build and ship. The pod integrates with your ledger (QuickBooks Online, Xero, Sage Intuit), document sources (Gmail, Outlook, Drive, SharePoint), and any firm-specific tooling, then hands your team an internal beta with real client data behind your SSO. From there the pod keeps iterating on the same monthly subscription — adding the next workflow once the first one is earning its keep.
Frequently asked questions
- How long before our staff accountants are actually using the MVP?
- End of week three. The goal of the three-week sprint is a working internal beta your team logs into and uses on real engagements — not a prototype or a slide deck. Iteration continues monthly after that.
- Can you integrate with QuickBooks Online, Xero, or our practice management system?
- Yes. Those integrations are standard scope. If you're on something less common — Sage Intacct, CCH Axcess, Karbon, Canopy — we confirm the integration surface during week-one discovery before committing to a ship date.
- How do you handle client data, PII, and SOC 2 expectations during the build?
- We build inside your cloud account or a dedicated tenant, keep client data behind your SSO, and follow least-privilege access for the pod. We'll sign your NDA and DPA, and we can work within an existing SOC 2 control set if your firm has one.
- What happens after the three weeks — do we keep the pod or the code?
- You own the code and the deployment from day one. The pod stays on a month-to-month subscription to ship the next workflow, and you can pause or end it whenever the backlog runs out.
