Great year, cash in the bank, so you pay yourself a dividend in March. In Estonia that can bite: until the annual report is approved, the dividend has no legal basis. You'd have to pay it back, and the board members who paid it are on the hook with you.

How can automation help run your company's accounting?
Most of the work in a company's books repeats on a timetable. Invoices go out at the start of the month, someone chases the late ones, the bank lines get matched, and the tax return has its deadline. The same jobs come back every month, and they tend to land on an evening you had planned for something else.
Automation takes over those repeats and comes to you only when a decision is needed. But every company runs its money differently. A web shop wants Slack to ping when a large invoice goes overdue and a polite email for everything smaller. A consultancy never chases before day 30. One founder wants to approve every return before it reaches the tax authority, another wants it filed and a note afterwards. A settings page with a few toggles can't hold all of that.
So we built a workflow builder into Acctally's books. You decide when a job runs, what it checks, who gets asked, and where the result goes.
Invoicing, reminders, bank statements, month-end close and AI reports work the same in any country. Estonia is the first country where Acctally files the returns end to end.
The full article covers why we chose a builder over settings, and which jobs to automate first:

Dear accountants,
Most of a client's month is work you already know the answer to: which category, which VAT line, which payment matches which bill. Luca does that part and shows you its reasoning, so your time goes to the few items that actually need you.
Clients are members of their own workspace, so they can see what you've done, send documents through a link, and answer Luca's questions themselves instead of waiting on your email.
When a client's setup is right, you tell Luca to repeat it every month.
Watch one client's month, start to finish π

Seed Stage, episode 7: The Exchange Rate.
Tunde made twelve million over the Black Friday weekend. Klaus, his investor in Berlin, was delighted. Then he switched the view to euros.
β¦12,000,000 is a great weekend in Lagos. In Berlin it's β¬7,500. Or, as Tunde puts it, "a very good bicycle. Electric."
If your company earns in one currency and your investors think in another, this one is for you. In Acctally you can view any total in another currency without touching the books, and recording an investment books the money and updates the cap table in one step.
Klaus's verdict: "Acctally showed me the real number before I sent the money. My bank would have shown me after."
Built in Tallinn, for companies in Estonia, Nigeria and beyond.

Seed Stage, Episode 6: NEPA Took Light π‘
Klaus is ready to invest in a Nigerian startup. There's one condition: show him the Black Friday numbers first.
That night the power goes. Then the generator dies. Tunde's last message to Luca never says "saved".
By morning, Klaus sees 412 Paystack payments and β¦12 million in sales, every one recorded.
So tell us honestly π
If you were Klaus, would you sign the cheque on those numbers?
And founders: if an investor asked tonight, could you show your numbers by morning?
Your books keep working when the lights don't.
