Finance & accounting

Autonomous reconciliation agents that match invoices to ledgers

Cross-reference bank statements, invoices, and payment gateway feeds. Detect tax discrepancies, identify duplicate billings, and draft month-end close packages.

Runs today

The job to be done

Finance controllers, accounting teams, and operations directors in high-transaction businesses.

Month-end closing is a manual nightmare of spreadsheets, missing receipts, and multi-currency conversions. Traditional reconciliation software charges exorbitant per-invoice fees.

How it works

  1. 1

    Bank feed & invoice ingestion

    Statements (CSV, OFX) and vendor invoices arrive via email, SFTP, or direct upload.

  2. 2

    Deterministic matching

    Exact amount, date, and vendor ID matches are reconciled automatically in memory.

  3. 3

    Fuzzy resolution & exception gate

    Agent analyzes partial matches, currency fee deltas, and flags discrepancies for human review.

  4. 4

    Close package preparation

    Drafts balanced journal entries ready for your controller to sign off into your accounting system.

SynthHires

100% BYOK on model tokens (zero markup). Cloud compute & 24/7 background webhooks run on pay-as-you-go credits only when active — no monthly subscription lock-in.

  • Pure BYOK & credit consumption: pay fractions of a cent per reconciliation instead of $0.50-$2.00 vendor markups.
  • Open export: outputs standard journal entries for QuickBooks, Xero, Holded, or Excel.

Your API keys are encrypted locally with AES-GCM and never travel to our servers.

Where this is not the right fit

  • Not a certified bank or tax filing agent: SynthHires automates triage and drafts, but a human accountant must file declarations.

What it handles

Multi-currency invoice reconciliation

Matches transactions across EUR, USD, and GBP calculating accurate exchange rate fees.

Duplicate transaction detector

Catches accidental double charges across payment processors before books are finalized.

Tax ID & VAT verification

Verifies VAT numbers and verifies proper withholding and sales tax calculations.

Client-side financial confidentiality

Your financial ledgers are encrypted locally; no financial figures train external LLMs.

Availability: this workflow is assembled from primitives that ship today. You configure the trigger, the agents and the gate; nothing is hidden behind a feature flag.

Frequently asked questions

Can the agent connect directly to my bank?

Yes, via Open Banking / Plaid connectors configured with your own API credentials, or via standard CSV/OFX statement exports.

How does it handle ambiguous receipts?

Ambiguous items are routed to the approval gate with a proposed categorization. The agent never forces an unverified journal entry.

What formats can I export into?

Standard CSV, JSON, and ledger formats compatible with Xero, QuickBooks, Holded, and enterprise ERPs.
