Accounting Seed Rolls Out AI Agents for Collections, Bill Pay, and General Ledger

Salesforce-native accounting solution Accounting Seed on Monday launched its AI Accounting Agents, enabling small and medium-sized businesses to realize benefits from artificial intelligence across their entire general ledger and customer relationship management platform.

Because Accounting Seed is built natively within Salesforce, customers can rapidly deploy AI in the same platform they use to run sales, service, and operations. By having all core business data in a single platform, businesses can use AI for help with answering questions and performing automated tasks without complex data mapping and integrations, Accounting Seed said.

“Growing businesses using Accounting Seed are uniquely positioned to capitalize on AI advancement,” Accounting Seed CEO Nasser Chanda said in a statement on Jan. 12. “While other companies struggle with fragmented data across multiple systems, our customers have everything in one place on Salesforce. The AI can immediately understand their business context and start delivering value.”

The initial release includes three specialized accounting agents—Collections Agent, Bill Pay Agent, and General Ledger Agent—each designed to handle routine accounting tasks while maintaining comprehensive audit trails and respecting established security permissions. These agents are designed to save time, reduce errors, and help growing businesses see tangible benefits from AI without high cost and complexity, Accounting Seed said.

“AI agents represent the ultimate evolution of our automation strategy,” said Ryan Sieve, chief technology officer of Accounting Seed. “By building these agents natively on the Salesforce platform, we’re eliminating the obstacles that have prevented most businesses from accessing and benefitting from AI. Our customers can now deploy intelligent AI that works seamlessly within their existing workflows and is securely grounded in their data.”

The Collections Agent accelerates cash flow by turning invoices into cash faster through smart invoice analysis, payment prediction insights, and real-time aging inquiry. The Bill Pay Agent optimizes cash flow by capturing early payment discounts, detecting duplicate payments, and payment prioritization recommendations. The General Ledger Agent saves time through intelligent transaction querying, as well as flexible posting and unposting.

“All three of our accounting agents are solving real challenges that positively impact the entire business,” Chanda said. “Because we’re built on Salesforce, data flows seamlessly from opportunity to billing to cash, making all customer data AI-ready today. Not only this, but it also allows customers to get instant results—reducing monthly close cycles by 50% and providing rapid financial insights.”

These new agents come on the heels of already released AI help for Accounting Seed users. The recently released Support Agent is a new generative AI-powered chat experience designed to help users increase their skills, as well as get answers to questions in real-time.

In addition, Invoice Automation—also included in Accounting Seed—saves customers time by automatically matching emailed invoices to vendor accounts, creating payables, and auto populating details, such as invoice date, due date, and invoice number. AI then helps predict and populate fields, like general ledger expense accounts, to further improve both efficiency and productivity.
