08 — ACCOUNTANT AGENT

Your books,
kept
current.

Email or drop a PDF — OCR, VAT classified, drafted into sevDesk, matched against Qonto + Stripe. GuV, EÜR, UStVA on demand. Built for DACH UGs and GmbHs.

The problem

sevDesk in five tabs. Vouchers in iCloud. Sunday-before panic.

Every founder running a German UG or GmbH knows the loop. sevDesk in one tab. Qonto in another. Stripe in a third. RevenueCat on a tab you forgot you had open. Invoices arrive by email, get marked “to-do”, get buried, get re-found two weeks later when the Steuerberater asks. The voucher folder on iCloud is half-organised. The GuV happens by hand the weekend before the deadline because nobody quite trusted the numbers in the system. By the time it's filed, the next quarter is already a month behind.

  • EMAILS invoices buried in the same inbox as newsletters and contracts.
  • BANK Qonto, Stripe, RevenueCat — three reconciliations, four scrolls.
  • VOUCHERS half-missing, found Sunday before the Steuerberater deadline.
  • REPORTS GuV, EÜR, UStVA — done by hand, in panic, every quarter.

Books were behind every quarter.

The shift

Mail in.Booked.Reconciled.

Most accounting tooling is a tab. The work — chasing invoices, classifying VAT, matching bank transactions, drafting the UStVA — is still done by the founder, on Sunday. The agent flips that. sevDesk stays the source of truth; the Steuerberater sees what they always saw. Everything in front of sevDesk runs on autopilot.

Cron fires the agent every fifteen minutes. It reads Gmail, OCRs PDF attachments and portal links, classifies VAT against your historical pattern, drafts the booking in sevDesk and queues it for your one-click approve. Daily it reconciles Qonto + Stripe + RevenueCat against the booked vouchers with ±4 day, ±5% tolerance — pings Discord when a receipt is missing. Weekly it runs the forecast. On demand it drafts the GuV, EÜR or UStVA.

You approve. You never type a voucher into a system again.

What it handles

Every voucher. Every report.

Built specifically for the DACH bookkeeping shape — German VAT rules (19% / 7% / Reverse Charge / Versicherungsteuer), sevDesk as the source of truth, Qonto as the bank-mirror layer. The work that fits in a tab stays in a tab; the work that doesn't goes on autopilot.

How it works

Inbox in. Books out.

An invoice email lands. The agent OCRs the PDF, extracts vendor + line items + VAT, classifies against your historical bookings, drafts the sevDesk voucher, and queues it for review. When the matching Qonto transaction posts, the voucher reconciles automatically. You see one row in the approve queue; the rest of the system already knows what to do with it.

GMAIL · 15-MIN

Email inbox

Every fifteen minutes the agent scans Gmail for invoices — PDF attachments, portal links, inline HTML. Each one OCR'd, classified, drafted into sevDesk for review.

ICLOUD · DRIVE

Drop folder

Bulk upload from an iCloud or Drive folder — the watcher splits multi-invoice PDFs, dedupes against sevDesk, runs the same pipeline as inbox intake.

Bank

Bank transactions mirrored from Qonto via sevDesk, Stripe and RevenueCat side-by-side. Income, refunds, bank fees — every flow reconciled against the books.

RECONCILE · ±4 DAYS

Vouchers

Daily cross-check between transactions and vouchers with ±4 day, ±5% tolerance — Discord ping when a receipt is missing, so nothing waits for Sunday.

GUV · EÜR · USTVA

Reports

GuV, EÜR, UStVA on demand — drafted, formatted, ready for the Steuerberater. No spreadsheets, no manual roll-up, no quarter-end panic.

WEEKLY · 3-SCENARIO

Forecast

Weekly year-prediction — three methods × three scenarios. Cash runway, expenses, profit, tax estimate, all in one view that updates while you sleep.

sevDesk stays the source of truth. Everything in front of it runs itself.

The side effect

Sunday
opens up.

The voucher-folder panic goes away. The Steuerberater stops emailing about missing receipts. The GuV runs in five seconds because the work was already done, every fifteen minutes, all quarter. The forecast updates while you sleep. The hour you used to spend reconciling Stripe against Qonto on Sunday goes back to building the product — or just to Sunday.
