How it works

From statement to report in minutes

  1. 01

    Receive client statements

    Connect your firm's inbox. Clients email their statements to you as usual — PDFs, Excel files or photos.

  2. 02

    Statements are detected

    Ledger AI spots incoming statements from HSBC, Barclays, NatWest, Lloyds and all major UK banks, and maps each one to the correct client ledger.

  3. 03

    Transactions are extracted

    Every transaction is read from the document, parsed and de-duplicated. No manual data entry.

  4. 04

    Spending is categorised

    Each line is categorised — Revenue, HMRC VAT, Dividends, Travel, Payroll — by AI trained on UK accounting standards. Override any of them with one click.

  5. 05

    Trial balance is built

    A fully reconciled trial balance is generated, ready to drill into by category or by client.

  6. 06

    Review and export

    Your team is alerted the moment processing is complete. Check the figures, then export to Excel or PDF, or straight into Xero, QuickBooks or Sage.
