It replaces the data entry, the chasing and the “where did that receipt go” — not the judgment. Your accountant gets clean, current, fully-traceable books instead of a shoebox in January. Most owners find they need far fewer billable hours.

Gmail for invoices and receipts, Stripe and your payment gateway for money coming in, Zoho Books if you already use it, Telegram and WhatsApp for receipt photos and questions, plus PDF bank-statement import. Every connection is optional — connect only what you use.

Correct it in one tap — in chat or in the app — and Tally learns your preference for next time. Every entry links to its source document, so you can always check its work in seconds.

Only what's already settled: a paid receipt, a payment matched to an existing invoice. Anything that creates a new obligation waits at “awaiting approval” until you OK it. You draw the line, and you can move it.

In your own workspace: an encrypted database and private document storage, scoped to your account. Integration credentials are held by a vetted credential broker or encrypted with AES-256 — never stored in plain text, never shared between users.
