For CA firms, controllers & finance teams

Your team is paid to think. They're typing invoices.

If this sounds like your week

Your CA didn't qualify after 5 attempts to spend her week on data entry. But that is exactly what she's doing.

Read it honestly. If even three of these hit, you are bleeding hours and money you will never get back.

Vendor invoices arrive over WhatsApp PDFs and email; coded into Tally manually.

Bank reconciliation is a 3-day month-end fight even with bank-feeds.

GSTR-2B mismatches chased one vendor at a time.

Expense reports approved on email, posted by hand, payments delayed.

MIS reaches the MD on the 15th of next month — useless for action.

Statutory deadlines (TDS, PT, PF) tracked on a Google sheet that breaks every quarter.

The 15 automations

Traditional way → AI way, with the math on the table

Every line below is a real workflow I have built or could ship inside 2–6 weeks. The per-task numbers describe a reference setup at the upper end (busy clinic, full QSR week, etc.) using a loaded labour rate of ₹500/hr. The headline savings of ₹10.25 L/year at the top of the page are these per-task savings scaled down to the ca firm / in-house finance team described above. If your business is larger, multiply; if smaller, divide.

Why people remember Imad

You'll be hiring an engineer who already shipped this.

The same systems described above — agentic workflows, document extraction, voice agents, secure APIs, deployment — are running today inside a logistics company I built for. Not slides. Production.

Production-grade systems

13 modules, real users, real money flowing through them — see the heavy-haul case study.

Industry-aware design

Workflows are designed around how your domain actually moves, not generic ChatGPT wrappers.

Fast turnaround

First working slice in 7–14 days, full build in 2–6 weeks for most workflows.

Honest pricing

Fixed-scope quotes. You see the calculation, the build cost, and the payback month before signing.

Questions CA firms, controllers & finance teams actually ask

Frequently asked questions

Q.Can AI auto-post entries into Tally?

Yes. We've shipped a workflow that reads vendor bills (PDF/JPG), matches them to PO/GRN, and posts entries into Tally with the correct GST split — reducing 90% of data-entry hours.

Q.Does AI help with GST and audit?

AI reconciles GSTR-2A vs purchase register, flags mismatches, and prepares audit working papers. Article time goes from days to hours per client.
