Automation software that takes the tedium out of bookkeeping

You didn't start a business to do data entry. Dext automates the whole bookkeeping workflow — from capturing invoices and receipts to publishing them to your accounting software with over 99% accuracy. Hours back every week, and books you can trust.

No credit card required.

Automate the tasks that slow you down

Dext takes manual bookkeeping and human error out of the process, so you and your accountant spend time on the business — not correcting entries or reconciling transactions by hand. AI does the work. You keep control of every outcome.

Automatically categorise 

Dext auto-fills the category, supplier and payment method on every receipt and invoice. Set a supplier rule once and Dext applies it forever. You stop typing the same thing twice. 

Auto-Publish items to your accounting software

Send documents from trusted suppliers straight to your accounting software, hands off. Prefer to check first? Switch Auto-Publish off for those suppliers. Review mode or full auto — your call, supplier by supplier.

Split a transaction out into line items

Set up line items once for a recurring supplier and Smart Split does every invoice after that — automatically, down to the line. No more splitting a phone bill by hand each month.

Catch problems before your books do

Dext auto-categorises entries, spots duplicates and flags anything that looks off — before it reaches your accounting software. Fixing it early costs minutes. Fixing it at year-end costs a lot more.

Recurring transactions publish themselves, with manual review whenever you want it. Dext connects with 36+ accounting platforms, so there's nothing to migrate and nothing to relearn. Accurate books, without the back-and-forth.
