Use cases
Account analysis and anomaly alerts
Automatic detection of unusual entries, duplicates, inter-account inconsistencies. AI presents anomalies; the collaborator decides.
Client summary notes drafting
First draft of monthly or annual summary notes from firm data. Formatting, tone, key points. The accountant validates and personalizes.
Automated tax and social monitoring
Weekly synthesis of changes to the French Tax Code, DGFiP positions, Conseil d'État rulings. Filtered to your client sectors.
AML compliance support
Help drafting client risk assessments, alerts on atypical transactions, Tracfin reports preparation. AI structures; the firm decides.
Ethics and regulatory framework
Accounting professional secrecy and duty to advise
Accountants are bound by secrecy on client information. Transmission to a third-party LLM without precaution may trigger disciplinary liability (CNCC, OEC). EU model + anonymisation = defensible position.
AML and vigilance duty
AI can speed up flagging of atypical transactions but does not replace human analysis and Tracfin reporting decisions. Any solution must produce an auditable decision trail.
What we don't do
- Bookkeeping: that's your expertise. AI supports the analysis and leaves the bookkeeping to you.
- Issuing accountant attestations: personal binding signature required, not substitutable.
- Statutory audit missions: reserved for auditors registered with the H3C.
- Personalized client tax advice: decision and signature stay with your firm.
- Final Tracfin reporting decision: discretion remains with the firm, AI does not decide for you.
How do we work with you?
Frequently asked questions
Can I use ChatGPT to analyse a client FEC? +
Yes, with precautions. A FEC contains sensitive client info covered by secrecy. Solutions: strictly anonymise before sending, use an EU contracted instance (Mistral, Claude via EU Bedrock), or process locally with Ollama. We help structure the right choice.
Is the training OPCO-eligible? +
Qualiopi certification (certificate QUA009472) grants access to OPCO EP funding (Atlas for accounting). Actual support depends on participant status and on the funding body’s decision. All required documentation is provided.
