Xero Launches AI Experts for Accounting Firms
12 Nov
Summary
- Xero introduced Xforce to embed AI workflows for accounting firms.
- Firms will get expert engineers to design and automate their processes.
- The service is currently in beta with design partners in three countries.
Xero has introduced Xforce by Xero, a new offering designed to equip accounting firms with a team of forward-deployed engineers and partner consultants. This initiative aims to assist firms in redesigning their operational workflows for the AI era, ensuring they maintain control over their trusted platforms.
Xforce leverages Xero's APIs and Xero OS to automate end-to-end processes, integrating with existing software in a practice's technology stack. This service builds upon XeroForce, a feature announced previously that helps transform manual tasks into scalable workflows.
According to Diya Jolly, President of Product and Technology at Xero, Xforce embeds experienced experts to help firms implement repeatable and scalable AI workflows. These integrations are designed to boost consistency and efficiency, freeing up valuable time for practice growth. The service is currently in a beta phase with design partners in Australia, New Zealand, and the UK.
CEO Sukhinder Singh Cassidy highlighted that AI can address the increasing demand on accountants and bookkeepers, but scaling requires hands-on support. Xforce is positioned to provide this crucial assistance for AI integration, mirroring the support offered when firms transitioned to cloud-based systems.
