Designed for simplicity

Less paperwork, fewer surprises

Standard accounting tools lock you into steep monthly fees, or take a cut of what you earn. Findie works with the tools you already have.

An AI that knows your business

Findie writes instructions for your own Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini, based on how you work.

Records that tidy themselves

Send receipts and statements. Your AI logs them, and suppliers fill in as you confirm.

Numbers ready for your return

GST and tax estimates built on IRD and ACC's published rules.

Real due dates, in your calendar

Worked out from your answers. Add them to the calendar you already use.

How Findie works

Four steps. Two to get set up, then two you repeat.

Set up once. After that, it's your AI and My Findie checking each other's work.

Personalise: your business context

Plain questions about how you work, then the rules that apply to you.

A mock-up, with example data.

Your numbers stay yours

Findie doesn’t hold your financial information. There’s no account, and no server storing your answers. Your files stay on your own computer.

When you send paperwork to Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini, it goes to your account with them, under their terms. Check their data settings before you start.

Findie is an early, unreleased prototype. This isn’t personalised financial or tax advice, and the content behind it hasn’t yet had a full accountant or lawyer review.

  • No Findie accountNothing to log in to, and nothing to be hacked on our side.
  • Plain files on your computerOpen them in any spreadsheet. They're yours to keep.
  • Your AI provider's terms applyThat covers what you send it, not Findie.

Questions

Things people ask first

The free screen answers most of these for your situation.

Do I need a paid AI plan?

No. Free plans work. Each provider limits how much you can do on a free plan, so a busy month might need a paid one. That cost is theirs, not Findie's.

Is Findie an accountant?

No. Findie doesn't file anything for you, and this isn't personalised tax advice. It organises your records and works out your position from IRD and ACC's published rules. The rules haven't had an accountant or lawyer review yet, which is why this is still a prototype.

Will Findie file my obligations automatically?

No. Findie doesn't file anything with IRD or ACC for you. It works out where you stand and puts your key dates in your calendar, so you can file on time yourself.

Will Findie connect to my bank accounts directly?

No. Findie never connects to your bank. You download a statement from your bank and share it with your AI, and your records stay in plain files on your own computer.

I also have a payslip job. Is that okay?

Yes. Findie is built for people with employed income as well as self-employment income.

Who is Findie not for?

Anyone with employees, or a more complex set-up. The free screen tells you early if Findie isn't a good fit.

Where are my records kept?

On your own computer, in plain files you can open. Findie doesn't store them.
