Invoice OCR Software for Accountants
AI-powered invoice OCR built specifically for accounting workflows. 99.6% extraction accuracy, direct QuickBooks and Xero integration, batch processing for multiple clients. Eliminate manual data entry from AP processing.
Why Accountants Need Specialized Invoice OCR
Generic OCR tools extract text from documents. Accounting-focused invoice OCR understands financial document structure and delivers data ready for your workflow. The difference matters when you're processing hundreds of invoices monthly for multiple clients.
Zera Books is built for CPAs and accountants who need more than raw text extraction. The AI recognizes invoice fields—vendor names, invoice numbers, line items, amounts, tax, due dates—and structures data for accounting software import.
With Zera Books invoice processing, extracted data auto-categorizes to your QuickBooks or Xero chart of accounts. No manual field mapping, no reformatting spreadsheets, no copy-paste errors. Upload invoices, review extracted data, export to your accounting system.
The accounting workflow problem: Clients send invoices in every format—digital PDFs, scanned documents, phone photos. Each vendor uses different layouts. Manual entry consumes hours that should go toward analysis and advisory work.
What Zera AI solves:
- Process any invoice format without template training—Zera AI adapts dynamically
- Auto-categorize line items to match your chart of accounts
- Batch process invoices from multiple clients in one upload
- Export directly to QuickBooks, Xero, Sage with one click
- Track all conversions in the client management dashboard
