So how does Dext deliver such valuable benefits to accountants and bookkeepers? To explain, let's take a closer look at what we offer.
Our product, Dext, uses OCR technology to collect your clients’ paperwork with 99% accuracy. The software recognises and extracts text and data from images of receipts, invoices, and bank statements. It then converts the characters from those documents into machine-readable text. This allows clients and accountants to digitise the paperwork and then organise and store the information online.
There’s no manual data entry required: all the client or accountant has to do is take a photo of each document and upload it to Dext through an easy-to-use mobile app.
The software then uses machine learning and state-of-the-art AI to create categorised accounting transactions. These can flow seamlessly into clients’ accounting software, thanks to integrations with leading platforms like Xero, Sage and Quickbooks.
That’s not all. We’re always looking to provide further updates and solutions to further enhance how our clients work. We’ll soon be offering two add-on tools, called Dext Precision and Dext Commerce. Dext Precision reviews the data input into Xero or QuickBooks Online by you or your client, highlighting any inconsistencies to ensure accurate records from the beginning. To support digital commerce businesses, Dext Commerce fetches sales transactions from retailers, marketplaces, e-commerce platforms, point-of-sale systems and other digital payment providers.
