Overview
Tofu is the AI bookkeeping platform bookkeepers love and firms depend on.
Bookkeepers are the backbone of every firm, but too often they’re weighed down by manual entry, errors, and late nights chasing paperwork. That leads to stress, burnout, and high staff turnover.
Tofu changes that. AI born and built for scale, extracts the data, it processes invoices in 200+ languages and posts it straight into Xero. With minimal setup, it learns from past transactions and keeps getting smarter every day. The result:
-
Fewer errors and cleaner data for accurate results
-
Bookkeepers reclaim their evenings and avoid burnout
-
Firms gain time to focus on higher-value advisory work and growth
Benefits of using Tofu
Tofu learns with you, not against you, making setup scalable and low-effort.
Works out of the box with no complicated rules. Unlike legacy tools that require client-by-client setup, Tofu adapts instantly to your client. It learns from the chart of accounts and past transactions, including how you categorise invoices, so setup takes minutes not hours.
Fewer errors and cleaner data give you accurate results every time.
With 99%+ accuracy across invoices, you spend less time fixing mistakes and get reliable numbers you can trust for reporting and advisory work.
Take on more clients and grow your firm, without the grind.
AI takes care of repetitive invoice entry so you reclaim hours every week. Firms save 4+ hours per week per client on average, creating capacity for new clients and higher-value services.
Confidence with complex files. Efficiency across every workflow.
Split, merge, and extract invoices from bulk PDFs in seconds. Stay in control while avoiding bottlenecks and keeping work flowing smoothly.
Multi-language invoice processing made simple.
Process invoices in 200+ languages and translate line-item descriptions instantly, making it easy to support multilingual clients and expand without barriers.
Spend less time on admin and more time deepening client trust.
With straight-through processing removing up to 4 hours of manual entry per day, you reclaim evenings and shift attention to advisory work that deepens client trust.
Tofu + Xero
Tofu is designed to work hand-in-hand with Xero, making invoice processing faster, smarter, and less manual. Tofu extracts vendor, date, totals, and line items, then creates bills in Xero.
Set up in minutes
No complicated rules or client-by-client configuration. Tofu learns from your chart of accounts and past transactions so it works out of the box.
Works with your tools
Connect Dropbox, Google Drive, or SharePoint and let invoices flow straight into Xero. Tofu works whether you use Xero alone or alongside other accounting systems.
What Tofu does not do
For clarity: Tofu does not implement Xero account mapping or payment mapping. Instead, it focuses on accurate data capture, file management, exception handling, and knowledge retention. Account allocations within Xero are handled using Xero’s own chart of accounts settings.
With this integration, Tofu acts as a reliable bridge—transforming raw invoice documents into clean, accurate bills in Xero, ready for reconciliation and reporting.
