Did you know that 82% of accountants are excited by AI, but only 25% are actively investing in AI training?
There’s huge potential for saving money and time, while increasing client satisfaction using AI in accounting practices. What’s the catch? Not enough accountants are doing it.
“Accountants who aren’t leveraging AI are missing a critical opportunity to boost efficiency and accuracy,” says Mohammed Sidat, Head of Product Management at Wolters Kluwer TAA. “Embracing AI isn’t just about ‘new tech—it’s a strategic move that drives growth.”
In this blog, we walk you through five ways that you can incorporate AI into your accounting software stack to grow your practice; from marketing efforts to data analysis. First, let’s look at understanding AI.
Understanding AI’s capabilities is the first step toward implementation. AI can be divided into two main types: machine learning and generative AI.
This ‘old school’ AI learns from vast sets of data, recognising patterns and creating algorithms to improve over time. It is ideal for tasks like predictive modelling and error analysis.
This newer form of AI produces new content by analysing existing data. It is perfect for tasks like drafting documents and creating chatbots.
1. Automate repetitive tasks
One of the most significant benefits AI offers is the automation of repetitive tasks. Traditional accounting involves numerous routine activities such as data entry, transaction processing, and reconciliation. AI can automate these processes, allowing accountants to focus on more strategic activities. This not only boosts productivity but also reduces costs and improves job satisfaction.
Example: AI can handle basic data-entry jobs within seconds, such as processing numerous daily transactions, analysing this data, and providing real-time insights. Consider it your personal assistant—but without the increased headcount—when it comes to repetitive manual tasks.
2. Enhance data analysis and insights
AI brings a new dimension to data analysis. With advanced algorithms, AI can analyse complex datasets to identify patterns and trends that might not be immediately apparent. This capability provides accountants with insights that can drive strategic planning and decision-making.
Example: AI can predict future financial trends and highlight areas for cost savings by uncovering spending patterns through predictive analytics.
3. Improve accuracy and reduce errors
AI systems can process large volumes of data with remarkable precision, minimising the risk of mistakes that can occur during manual data handling. This increased accuracy ensures that financial records are reliable and trustworthy, which is crucial for building client trust.
Example: AI can automatically identify potential errors in data sets by benchmarking data against the average, flagging anomalies before data is submitted to clients.
4. Enhance the client experience with AI
AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants can provide clients with instant responses to their queries, improving customer service and engagement. These tools are available 24/7, ensuring that clients can receive assistance whenever they need it, without the limitations of human working hours.
Example: A chatbot on your website can answer FAQs, guide clients through financial processes, and even book appointments, saving time on administrative tasks.
5. Grow your accounting practice’s marketing efforts
AI’s capabilities extend beyond data handling. In marketing, generative AI can develop content, produce ideas, and enable chatbots to answer FAQs on your website. This enhances your marketing efforts with minimal effort and time investment.
Example: AI can help accounting professionals create comprehensive financial reports, compliance documents, and policy manuals by interpreting raw data and regulatory requirements—ensuring consistency and saving time.
The adoption of AI in the accounting industry is more than just a technological upgrade; it’s a strategic enabler of growth and innovation. AI helps save time, reduce costs, and enhance client experiences, setting you apart from the competition.
“Accountants shouldn’t wait when it comes to using AI,” Sidat says. “AI enables enhanced data analysis, automation of routine tasks, and improved decision-making. The technology enables accountants to stay competitive, deliver superior client value, and drive growth.”
By incorporating AI into your accounting practice, you can improve efficiency, accuracy, and client satisfaction, positioning your firm for growth in a competitive landscape.
