Status: Coming soon

> [!SOON]
> The Accountant is Coming soon. This page describes what it will do when it opens, so you can plan ahead. Today the [Coder](/docs/personas/coder) is the one available persona.

The Accountant is the assistant that keeps your books tidy. It reads the invoice and receipt mail, sorts expenses, summarizes a month, drafts the invoice you need to send, and writes the polite reminder for the one that is overdue.

## What it will do

- Sort invoice, receipt, and expense email so nothing gets lost.
- Pull the key details out of an invoice into a clean table.
- Categorize expenses and flag unusual spend.
- Summarize a finance folder or a month of spending.
- Draft invoices and payment reminders.
- Build a month-end checklist for you and your advisor.

## Skills

| Skill | What it will do, in plain words |
| --- | --- |
| Monthly expense summary | The first win. Drafts a month-end recap from receipts, invoices, statements, or a pasted export. |
| Triage invoice email | Reads and sorts invoice, receipt, and expense mail. It only reads: nothing is sent. |
| Extract invoice fields | Pulls vendor, number, dates, amounts, tax line, currency, and terms into a clean table. |
| Categorize expenses | Sorts expenses or card lines into bookkeeping categories, with a confidence for each line. |
| Spend anomaly note | Flags spikes, duplicate charges, new vendors, and forgotten recurring charges in a short note. |
| Summarize a finance folder | Lists and summarizes a folder of invoices, statements, and budgets without changing it. |
| Draft an invoice | Prepares an invoice from the details you give, as a preview, a document, or an email draft. |
| Draft a payment reminder | Writes a polite follow-up about an unpaid invoice as a draft. |
| Bookkeeping checklist | Builds a month-end or quarter-end list: receipts collected, invoices sent and paid, items to reconcile, documents for your advisor. |

- Chase an overdue invoice politely.
- Understand why spending jumped last month.
- Prepare a clean folder for your advisor.

## Prompts for when it opens

```prompt title="Summarize last month"
Accountant, draft an expense summary for [month]. Use the receipts and invoices in my inbox and in [folder]. Show totals by category and anything that looks unusual.
```

```prompt title="Triage invoice email"
Accountant, go through the invoice and receipt emails from the last [number] days. List each with the vendor, the date, and whether it needs action. Send nothing.
```

```prompt title="Extract an invoice"
Accountant, read this invoice and put the vendor, number, dates, amounts, tax line, and terms in a table: [attach or paste invoice].
```

```prompt title="Categorize expenses"
Accountant, sort these expenses into bookkeeping categories and tell me how sure you are about each line: [paste or attach list].
```

```prompt title="Explain a spending jump"
Accountant, spending on [category or vendor] rose in [month]. Look for spikes, duplicate charges, new vendors, and forgotten recurring charges, and write me a short note.
```

```prompt title="Draft an invoice"
Accountant, draft an invoice for [client] for [work], due on [date]. Show me the preview. Do not send it.
```

```prompt title="Chase a late payment"
Accountant, draft a polite reminder to [client] about invoice [number], which was due on [date]. Keep it friendly and short, and leave it as a draft.
```

```prompt title="Prepare for the advisor"
Accountant, build a month-end checklist for [month]: receipts to collect, invoices to send or chase, items to reconcile, and documents to hand to my advisor.
```

## What it never does

> [!IMPORTANT]
> The Accountant never charges a customer and never sends an email without your Approve. Drafts stay drafts until you approve them, and a charge names the exact amount on the Approve card first.

It prepares and organizes your records. It does not replace your advisor, and it does not file taxes.
