Your clients’ paperwork, checked before you open it.

Receipts, bank statements and tax documents pile up for every client, every month. ALK sorts them, matches them and flags what is missing, with every answer linked to its source, so your hours go to advice, not data entry.

A SECOND PAIR OF EYES

Ask the contract. Get the line it came from.

ALK answers from the document itself, points to the exact line, and flags what doesn’t match. Here’s how.

app.alk.work/home
A supply agreement dropped into ALK with a plain-words question about payment terms and price increases.ALK answering with the contract’s own wording: Net 60 payment terms and an up-to-3% yearly increase.A citation on the Net 60 line opening the Wendham Textile Mills agreement it came from.ALK comparing the $184,000 contract value with the $150,000 approved budget: $34,000 over.The reviewer holding the signature while ALK drafts an approval request to the Controller.20 vendor contracts checked: 15 ready to sign, 4 sent back to the vendor, 1 needs budget approval.ALK Analyst charting each vendor’s contract value against its approved budget.Telling Pulse what to watch: warn me when any contract is more than $25,000 over budget.Pulse summary naming Wendham Textile Mills as $34,000 over budget, past the $25,000 threshold.

That’s one company reviewing its own vendor contracts. Below, see how a professional services firm puts ALK to work for a client’s books.

Expense categorization

Turn a shoebox of receipts into clean books.

Clients send photos, scans and PDFs in every format. ALK reads each receipt, pulls the merchant, date, total and payment method, assigns an expense category, and marks what is deductible, 50% deductible or personal, so nothing lands in the wrong account.

50% deductible

AI Reasoning

The receipt explicitly identifies a client dinner for a wholesale account review, which is a business meal and therefore 50% deductible.

Bank reconciliation

Reconcile a client’s month in one pass.

Upload the bank statement and your client’s books. ALK matches the lines and leaves only what does not agree: a $25 bank fee missing from the books, a $621 payment recorded as $612, and a $940 deposit the bank has not seen yet.

Month-end reporting

Month-end summaries your clients can read.

Drop in a client’s transactions and ask in plain language. ALK compares this month with last and charts revenue against expenses. For one coffee roaster, it found revenue flat but cost of goods up 17%, the one change that turned September into a loss.

Tax document intake

Know what is missing before tax season does.

Clients send forms in batches, out of order and mixed with things you did not ask for. ALK sorts each file, reads the key amounts, checks the pack against your checklist, and flags the form the client never sent, like a missing 1099-INT, with a note ready to send.

FAQ

Questions from accountants and bookkeepers

Is my clients' data used to train AI models?

Never. ALK does not train models on customer data. Your clients' files are encrypted in transit and at rest, and only the people you invite can see them.

How do I know ALK got it right?

Every extracted value and every flag links back to the page and line it came from. Open the source, check it, and correct it in one click if needed.

What does ALK cost for a bookkeeping or tax practice?

The Free plan costs nothing and needs no credit card. It includes 2 seats and 150 credits a month. Growth starts at $49 a month billed yearly ($59 billed monthly) and scales with the credits you use.

Can I keep clients separate and bring in my team?

Yes. Set up a workflow per client or per task and choose who can view, edit or approve. The Free plan includes 2 seats, and Growth adds unlimited seats.

Don't take our word for it.

Bring a real file. Watch ALK check it, flag what's wrong and show you where every answer came from.
