Botkeeper

Botkeeper combines AI and human accountants to automate bookkeeping for accounting firms and their clients.

Overview

Botkeeper is a hybrid bookkeeping platform built around accounting firms. Its AI handles transaction categorization, bank reconciliation, and document collection, while a dedicated bookkeeping team reviews the work and handles exceptions. Firms use it to scale client capacity without proportionally scaling headcount, with dashboards that give both firm and client visibility into the books in real time.

The partnership model matters: Botkeeper equips firms with a platform plus bookkeeping capacity, letting them grow client bases without proportional hiring. Dashboards give firms and their clients visibility into books, tasks, and monthly closes in real time.
