Problem
Tax advisors and accounting firms spend significant time on repetitive, manual bookkeeping tasks such as capturing receipts, assigning bank transactions, posting documents, and preparing VAT returns. This routine work reduces the time available for higher-value advisory services and creates bottlenecks, especially when clients have large backlogs of unprocessed documents.
Solution
GFR.ai provides an AI-powered financial accounting automation platform that integrates seamlessly with DATEV Unternehmen Online and accounting workflows. The system automatically extracts data from invoices and receipts, recognizes vendors, amounts, and dates, and generates account assignment suggestions with SKR codes and VAT rates, including explanations for each decision. Accountants review and approve the AI proposals through a transparent, auditable decision chain before documents are exported to DATEV. The platform also handles complex scenarios such as multiple VAT rates on a single invoice, reverse charge, OPOS reconciliation, and duplicate detection, significantly reducing manual effort and enabling faster processing of large document volumes.
