Use cases · Money · Fridays at 5:00 PM

The week's books are closed by Friday evening

Bookkeeping debt compounds. A week of uncategorised transactions is ten minutes; a quarter of them is a lost weekend and an accountant's invoice.

Your Squad teammate closes the books weekly. Every Friday at 5:00 PM it pulls the week's transactions, categorises them by your rules, and matches receipts from the inbox you gave it access to. The package files itself in Docs: labeled ledger, receipts alongside, open questions on top.

Unknowns never get guessed. Each becomes one choice card in your chat: pick the category once and the rule sticks in memory. The same vendor never asks twice.

How it runs
01
Set the categories once

Share your chart of accounts, or let the teammate propose one from history. You approve; the rules go to its notes file.

02
It categorises every Friday

The week's transactions get labeled by your rules. The run timeline shows every decision and the rule behind it.

03
Receipts match themselves

The teammate searches its inbox access for each transaction's receipt and files the match in the weekly folder. Missing receipts get chased by email.

04
Unknowns become choice cards

A transaction it cannot place is one card: the transaction, its best guesses, one tap from you. Your pick becomes a permanent rule.

05
The package ships

One tidy weekly folder in Docs: categorised ledger, receipts, and the answered questions. Share the folder link with your accountant.

06
Quarter-end is assembly

Thirteen consistent weekly folders roll up into one quarter package. The expensive cleanup never happens because the debt never builds.

What lands on your desk
An unknown becomes a rule, in chat
Tessa: One I cannot place — $89/mo to 'NORDLYS APS,
Copenhagen', started August. Best guesses: software
subscription, or the podcast editing Priya mentioned?

[ Software ]  [ Contractor ]  [ Type an answer ]

You: contractor — that's the podcast editor

Tessa: Filed as Contractors. Rule saved: NORDLYS =
podcast editing. It will not ask again.
