Frequently asked questions
Can SME chart of accounts be automated with AI?
Largely, yes: automatic document reading, posting suggestions, bank reconciliation via QR references and VAT exports. Human approval remains essential — AI prepares, the professional checks. That is exactly how MyFiducia.ai approaches SME chart of accounts.

Which documents should be prepared for the year-end closing?
