Do I need accounting knowledge?

No. Bookkeep Browser is built for non-accountant founders: you drop bank statements and receipts, the AI drafts the books, and every figure is explained in plain language.

How is my financial data handled?

Your books live behind your own login. Documents you upload are processed to extract transactions and are never used to train AI models.

Which bank statement formats can I import?

CSV exports from major Hong Kong, mainland China and Indonesian banks and wallets, plus photos and PDFs of statements and receipts in English, Chinese or Bahasa Indonesia.

Does it work for Hong Kong, mainland China and Indonesia?

Yes. Multi-currency bookkeeping with charts of accounts for HK, mainland China and Indonesia, plus a generic international chart.

Can I export everything for my accountant?

Yes. One click produces a review-ready export: trial balance, general ledger, reports and a manifest of source documents for your accountant.

How much does Bookkeep Browser cost?

There is a free tier for one entity. Paid plans start from about US$10 per month when public launch opens.

Can AI do bookkeeping without an accountant?

Yes. CompanyForge Bookkeep parses bank statements and receipt images into double-entry journal drafts automatically, generating standard reports and a one-click export package ready for your accountant's final review.

Which countries, currencies, and languages are supported?

It supports multi-currency bookkeeping tailored for Hong Kong, Mainland China, and Indonesia with localized charts of accounts, handling bank statements and receipts in English, Traditional Chinese, and Bahasa Indonesia.

Is there a free tier or demo available?

Yes. You can test receipt capture and journal drafting in the free interactive playground (/bookkeep/try.html), generate invoices with the free invoice maker, or join the beta for 1 free company entity.

Is my company's financial data secure and kept private?

Yes. Your books live securely behind your own credentials. Uploaded financial documents are processed solely to extract transactions and are never used to train public AI models.
