Most independent businesses don’t do bookkeeping. They keep a folder.

Receipts in Drive, invoices in email, transactions on the bank statement. At some point it all goes to your accountant, who knows your numbers but not your business — so the questions come back. What was this payment for? Is this one deductible? And you’re the only person who can answer.

The alternative is supposed to be software. But every tool out there expects you to categorise transactions, match receipts, chase missing documents and reconcile records — to be an accountant, on top of running the business. So most people stick with the folder, or a spreadsheet, or nothing. Then it all lands at the end of the quarter.

Summarly is an AI-native app that does the bookkeeping for you. It builds a living record of your business from your transactions, receipts and invoices — every payment categorised, every receipt matched, every gap flagged. It tracks what comes in as it comes in, tells you which documents are missing while you can still find them, and keeps your books ready for your accountant.

A few minutes as you go, instead of a weekend in April.

Your accountant stays your accountant. Summarly handles the work that happens before the handoff, not after it.

You run your business. Summarly does the books.
