Frequently asked questions
Related professions
What is the best AI for accountancy?
That depends on your requirements. Field-specific solutions such as Basecone are built for accountancy; general assistants such as Claude can be used more broadly and are cheaper to start with. At the top of this page you will find our picks.
What is the difference between a 'field-specific tool' and a 'general assistant'?
A general assistant (such as ChatGPT or Claude) is a clever all-rounder you talk to yourself. A field-specific tool is a ready-made product for accountancy, often built on top of such an assistant, with its own domain knowledge, integrations and GDPR arrangements. The 'Quality' column shows which model a tool runs on.
May I use confidential data?
Never rely blindly on AI output for figures or tax rules: have an accountant verify everything. Mind the confidentiality of client records.
What does the GDPR profile mean?
Our summary of what the provider publishes about data protection: EU hosting, no training on your data, certifications and provenance. 'Strong' = several safeguards published; 'Unknown' = the provider shares little, so ask them. It is a tool, not legal advice.
