An AI workforce for accounting practices

Remove 40+ hours/month of bookkeeping, payroll and admin work — without hiring more staff.

We deploy an AI Bookkeeper and AI Payroll Assistant directly into your Xero or QuickBooks workflow, connected to Dext / Hubdoc, BrightPay and your existing practice tools.

No disruption. No rebuild. No extra headcount.

The capacity problem

Your practice doesn't have a software problem.
You have a capacity problem.

Most 3–9 staff accounting firms are dealing with the same pressure — work piling up faster than the team can process it.

Hiring fixes it temporarily. Then the cycle repeats. You already know the cost: senior staff doing junior work, junior staff drowning in repetitive processing, partners stuck reviewing instead of scaling, clients waiting longer, margins quietly shrinking.

This isn't a staffing issue. It's a workflow capacity issue.

  • Payroll delays and rework in BrightPay
  • Missing client documents stuck in Dext or Hubdoc
  • Staff time spent chasing instead of completing work
  • Month-end closing taking longer every cycle

Custom AI Worker

Training

Trained around a process unique to your firm.

Trained to your firm

Start with proven templates

Get value fast,
without lengthy implementation projects.

Most accounting firms share many of the same operational processes. That's why Haibot includes prebuilt AI workers for common accounting workflows.

  • Bookkeeping
  • Payroll
  • VAT
  • Accounts preparation
  • Practice administration

Then make them yours

You don't adapt to the software.
The software adapts to your firm.

Review procedures

Configured to match how your partners and managers approve work.

Client communication

Tone, timing and templates that reflect your practice.

Operational preferences

The little rules your team knows by heart — encoded once.

Every firm has its own way of working. Haibot can be trained around your firm's processes and rules — combining the speed of prebuilt workers with the precision of a fully customised one.

How it works

From mapped workflow to live deployment, in four steps.

  1. 01

    We map your real workflows

    Identify where time is being lost across bookkeeping, payroll, document handling and client chasing.

  2. 02

    We deploy into live work

    We connect into your existing stack — Xero / QuickBooks + Dext / Hubdoc + BrightPay + PMS. No migration. No rebuild. No sandbox.

  3. 03

    First workflow goes live in 15 days

    We start with one high-impact area: bank reconciliation, document processing or payroll.

  4. 04

    We expand across your practice

    Once the first workflow stabilises, we layer additional automation across the firm.

The 90-Day Capacity Recovery Guarantee

Does your practice qualify?

The 90-Day Capacity Recovery Guarantee only proceeds for practices where we can identify 75+ hours of monthly recoverable capacity. Most practices in your position clear that easily — but we'd rather show you the number than assume it.

Typically a fit: 3–9 staff, 150+ clients, running Xero or QuickBooks.

Free 2-minute assessment. No commitment, no sales call required to see your number.

Built for control

Automation without visibility creates risk.

Every action performed by a Haibot worker is logged, traceable, auditable and reviewable. Your team remains responsible for oversight while Haibot handles execution.

  • Approval workflows

    Configurable checkpoints before anything is published.

  • Exception management

    Items requiring judgement are routed to your team.

  • Activity monitoring

    Live visibility into what each worker is doing.

  • Performance reporting

    Volumes, accuracy and cycle time, by worker.

  • Complete audit history

    Every action recorded with timestamps, inputs and outputs.

  • Role-based access

    Permissions aligned to your practice structure.

What changes in your practice

Within 45 days, your team gets measurable hours back.

01

Less bookkeeping backlog

Reconciliations stay current across Xero and QuickBooks instead of piling up week after week.

02

Faster payroll cycles

BrightPay runs without bottlenecks, rework or last-minute scrambles.

03

Fewer missing documents

Dext and Hubdoc gaps get chased and closed without your team driving it.

04

Reduced staff interruptions

Your seniors stop being pulled into repetitive processing work.

05

Predictable month-end close

Cycle time shortens and stabilises every period — typically 20+ hours/month per workflow layer.

Why this is different

Most tools give you features.
Haibot executes the work.

Most tools

  • · Give you automation features
  • · Require internal setup
  • · Depend on your team to implement

Haibot

  • · Deploys into your actual workflow
  • · Executes real work
  • · Reduces staff load directly
  • · Works across your existing tools

No rebuilding your practice. No process redesign project.

Who this is for

Built for accounting practices with stretched teams.

  • 3–9 staff

    Small to mid-sized practices feeling the capacity squeeze.

  • 100+ clients

    Volume that makes manual processing unsustainable.

  • Xero or QuickBooks

    Your core ledger.

  • Dext or Hubdoc

    For client document capture.

  • BrightPay

    For payroll execution.

  • Client Engager / BrightManager

    For practice operations.

If your team is already stretched, this is built for you.

What it costs

Less than one new hire's first week

A typical bookkeeping hire costs £2,000–£3,000 a month once you include salary, NI, training and management time. Haibot starts at a fraction of that — and never calls in sick.

The Confidence Trial

Don't buy software based on a demo.

Choose a real process from your firm. We'll deploy and demonstrate an AI worker against your actual workflow so you can evaluate the results before making a commitment.

Because confidence comes from seeing the work get done.

Frequently asked questions

Answers, before you ask.

  • A "unique transaction" means a distinct business event that Haibot processes, categorises, reconciles, or acts upon. Examples include: a bank payment received (1), a supplier bill (1), a sales invoice (1), an expense receipt (1), a payroll run for 20 employees (1), a bank transfer (1), a Stripe payout containing 50 sales (1), a daily Shopify summary posting 200 orders into Xero (1). This is broadly how transaction-volume bookkeeping pricing is usually interpreted in practice — a batch posting is generally treated as one transaction rather than counting every underlying sale. Transaction Volume = the number of accounting events processed.
