<p>Oh ffs it just hallucinated everything 😂 <br>

<br>

It never actually reconciled any expense<br>

<br>

And Xero says they'll NEVER add that via API because "ReGuLatOrY constraints"<br>

<br>

So I guess I have to go the browser way huh</p>

<p>By far THE most annoying part of running a business for me is collecting receipts for my accountant<br>

<br>

Every month my accountants hounds me for invoices and receipts of every single expense I did, doesn't matter how tiny like $0.50, sometimes also for income (I don't know why)<br>

<br>

Most companies charge monthly so that means collecting 12 invoices per year at least<br>

<br>

One reason I am canceling so many SaaS is not even the cost, it's just that I hate bookkeeping so much so I think if I don't spend the money, I don't need to collect invoices and receipts for every single payment every month (also I like extremely high profit margins like 99.99%)<br>

<br>

I'm down to just about 10 companies I pay now, like Cloudflare, Hetzner, Backblaze etc. so that means only ~120 invoices to collect per year cause most are paid monthly<br>

<br>

Yes I have an automatic email filter that forwards invoices to my accountant but many companies do NOT send you an automatic invoice by email<br>

<br>

So you're talking about logging in to 10 websites, them sending you a 2FA code by email, opening your email, entering the code, trying to find wherever the Billing page is hidden, going to Invoices, opening the invoice, clicking Download to DPF (if it even exists)<br>

<br>

This week I tried to improve this, my accountant uses Xero, so I made a Xero API key, gave it to Claude Code, and asked it to login and figure stuff out, then it just asks me which expenses still need a receipt and a note, I find it and drag the PDF or screenshot into Claude Code and it resolves it<br>

<br>

Next step is letting it login to all my vendors and also download the invoice by itself which seems very very possible<br>

<br>

Much easier!</p>
