Who this is for
Bookkeeping AI Fit DIY helps you pick two or three AI uses, run them on real client work for 30 days, and finish with a clear keep-or-drop decision. AI drafts. A person on your team reviews it before anything is posted or sent. The kit covers five bookkeeping workflows.
As an AI pilot kit for bookkeeping firms, review stays with people.
- You own or lead a bookkeeping or small accounting firm, solo up to about 20 staff.
- You want to test AI on real client work with review built in.
- You want a keep-or-drop decision after 30 days, not an open-ended experiment.
Skip it if you don't run a bookkeeping or small accounting firm. The Small Business AI Kit ($39) is the general version.
What you can do after
After this kit you can run a 30-day pilot on the workflows that fit your firm: client onboarding and intake notes, transaction categorization assist with human review, month-end close checklists, client Q&A reply drafts, and internal SOPs. The list below breaks that into one line per job, so you can check it against your own work.
You'll be able to:
- draft client onboarding and intake notes
- use transaction categorization assist, with human review
- run a month-end close checklist and status
- draft client Q&A replies for a named person to edit and send
- write internal SOPs and staff training notes
What's inside
The download includes the files below. Every file is listed, with one line on how you'd use it.
- Guide: how the diagnostic works, the five workflows, how to pick your 2–3, and the 30-day plan. Read it first to pick your two or three workflows.
- Workbook: current-state audit, workflow scoring, your picks, and review gates. Score the workflows and set your review gates before the pilot starts.
- Prompt library for all five workflows, each with a review reminder. Fill in the client's books software and review every output.
- 30-day pilot log with week-by-week checklists. Work the weekly checklist so the pilot ends in a decision.
- Quick reference: one desk sheet with the do's, the don'ts, and who reviews what. Keep it at each desk so everyone knows who reviews what.
- Exclusions page: never auto-file, never send an unreviewed client email, no tax prep or tax advice. Read it with your team so the limits are clear from day one.
- Digital download of US Letter PDFs, plus a short license and support page. Check the license page before sharing files inside your firm.
How it fits with the free guides
The free guides give you the general method for any small business. The kit narrows it to bookkeeping workflows with review gates built in. Read How to Start Using AI in Your Small Business Without a Consultant for the approach. How to Build a Useful AI Workflow for a Small Business shows how to make one workflow repeatable. Browse all of them in the free guides.
Good to know
Questions before you download
Will this categorize my clients' transactions for me?
No. The prompts suggest a category and a reason. A bookkeeper reviews every batch and does the posting. The kit's rule is never auto-file.
Can AI send replies to my clients?
Not under this kit's rules. AI writes a draft. A named person on your team edits it and sends it.
Can my staff use it?
Yes, within your firm. The license covers personal or single-firm use. Just don't resell it or redistribute the files.
Does it work with QuickBooks Online or Xero?
It isn't tied to any software. The prompts have a blank for the client's books software, so you fill in QBO, Xero, or whatever they use.
What if I get stuck?
Give it through week 2. If you still can't decide what to keep, book AI Fit Flash ($199) with Chris. Support on this purchase covers delivery problems. It doesn't include open-ended free consulting.
I don't run a bookkeeping firm. Is this still for me?
Probably not. The Small Business AI Kit ($39) is the general version, or book Flash if you want a guided assessment.
Who is Bookkeeping AI Fit DIY for?
