AI can be genuinely useful in accounting work: suggesting how a transaction might be classified, explaining a variance in plain language or flagging an entry that looks unusual. The value comes from speed and attention, not authority.
In finance, the boundaries matter as much as the capability. An assistant should suggest rather than post. It should show the reasoning and the records behind a suggestion. It should never silently change a posted entry.
People remain accountable for the books, so the design should keep them in control: clear review steps, a visible history of changes and the ability to reject a suggestion without friction.
That is the direction FYBB Books is taking. AI is intended to suggest, classify, explain and highlight issues, while the ledger remains the accounting authority.
