What the AI does automatically
Rise handles the full bookkeeping cycle in the background, covering every step from raw bank data to reconciled, VAT-compliant records.Transaction categorization
Rise’s AI assigns every bank transaction to the correct account category using your full transaction history and merchant data. The more you use Rise, the more accurately it categorizes your spending.
VAT treatment
Rise automatically determines the correct VAT rate for each transaction based on the supplier, the expense category, and your company’s VAT registration status — no manual tax coding required.
Invoice matching
Incoming invoices are matched against the corresponding bank payments automatically. Rise flags any invoices that remain unmatched so nothing slips through the cracks.
Dimension tagging
When dimensions are in use, Rise tags invoice lines automatically — cost centres, project accounting, development projects. No separate allocation work.
When Rise asks for your input
Rise only interrupts you when the AI genuinely cannot determine how to classify something — for example, a new vendor with an ambiguous expense category. When this happens, you receive a mobile notification straight away. You can tap once to approve the AI’s suggested category, or select the correct one yourself. That’s the full extent of your manual involvement. Rise is designed to surface these moments as rarely as possible. Over time, as the AI learns your business, the number of approval requests drops significantly.Real-time books, always current
Because Rise processes transactions as they happen, your Profit & Loss statement, balance sheet, and cash flow reports are always up to date. You never have to wait until the end of the month to understand where your business stands financially. Log in at any point and the numbers reflect everything that has happened right up to today.Accountant oversight — built in, not bolted on
Every month, your dedicated certified accountant team reviews everything the AI has processed. They catch edge cases, handle complex transactions, and make sure your books are fully compliant with local regulations. You don’t need to audit the AI’s work yourself — that’s exactly what your accountant team is there for. If they spot anything that needs your attention, they’ll reach out directly.Rise’s AI learns from your corrections. When you override a categorization, it remembers your preference for that vendor going forward — so you’ll only ever need to correct the same thing once.
