Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about your AI-powered invoicing & quoting app. Still stuck? Get in touch.

What is aiaccounts.au?

It's a complete invoicing and quoting app for Australian businesses, with AI that writes quotes, scans receipts, reconciles bank payments and more.

How does the AI quote generator work?

Describe a job in plain English — for example, “a 5-page website with hosting and basic SEO” — and the AI drafts professional line items with sensible Australian prices. You can edit everything before sending.

How much does it cost?

A$49 per month, everything included: unlimited invoices, quotes, clients and expenses, plus all the AI tools. No setup fees, and you can cancel anytime.

Is there a contract or lock-in?

No. Billing is month-to-month and you can cancel whenever you like. Your data always remains yours.

Can my clients pay invoices online?

Yes. Connect your own Stripe account in Settings and clients can pay by card through a secure hosted link — funds go straight to your account, not ours.

Is my data private and secure?

Each customer gets a separate, password-protected app. Your data is yours and we don't sell it. Card payments are processed by Stripe; AI features are processed by Anthropic's Claude. See our Privacy Policy for the full picture.

Does it produce GST-compliant Australian tax invoices?

Yes — Australian tax invoices with GST, your ABN and your branding. It's a tool rather than tax advice; please see our Disclaimer.

Do I need to install anything?

No. It runs in your web browser on desktop, tablet and mobile, and your app is created instantly after sign-up.

Can I get features built specifically for my business?

Absolutely. Tell us what you need on the Request a Quote page and we'll scope a custom build for you.

How do I get started?

Click Start now, enter your company details, subscribe securely via Stripe, and your app is ready in minutes.

Invoicing & quoting how-tos

How do I create a GST tax invoice in Australia?

Enter your client and line items and the app produces a compliant Australian tax invoice — with your ABN, the words “Tax Invoice”, GST shown separately and your branding — then download it as a PDF or email it in one click.

What needs to be on a valid Australian tax invoice?

For sales of $82.50 or more (including GST), a tax invoice generally needs: the words “Tax Invoice”, your business name and ABN, the issue date, a description of the items, and the GST amount (or a statement that the total includes GST). Sales over $1,000 also need the buyer's identity or ABN. The app includes all of this automatically.

How can I get my invoices paid faster?

Invoice the moment a job is done, add a pay-by-card link (via Stripe), send reminders, use recurring invoices for repeat work, and let AI reconcile payments. Clear, prompt invoices with an easy way to pay get settled sooner.

How do I chase an overdue invoice?

The app tracks due dates and overdue balances, builds client statements with current / 30 / 60 / 90-day aging, and can generate a polite overdue-account letter — so following up takes seconds.

How do I write a professional quote quickly?

Use the AI quote generator: describe the job in plain English and it drafts an itemised, sensibly priced quote you can edit and send. When the client accepts, convert the quote to an invoice in one click.

How do I track expenses and GST for tax time?

Snap or upload a receipt and AI records the vendor, amount, GST and category. Expenses are stored with GST totals and export to CSV for your accountant or BAS.

How is GST calculated on an invoice?

GST in Australia is 10%. The app calculates it automatically — add a line item and it shows the GST and the GST-inclusive total, whether you enter prices inclusive or exclusive of GST.

Can I send the same invoice automatically each month?

Yes. Set an invoice to recur monthly or yearly and it generates and emails itself on schedule — ideal for retainers and subscriptions.

How do I match (reconcile) payments to invoices?

Upload a bank statement and AI matches incoming payments to the right outstanding invoices, so your records stay current without manual checking.

What's the best invoicing app for Australian sole traders & small businesses?

aiaccounts.au is built for Australian sole traders and small businesses — GST tax invoices, quotes, expenses and payments with AI doing the busywork, for a flat A$49/month with no lock-in.

How do I accept card payments from clients?

Connect your own Stripe account in Settings and every invoice gets a secure pay-by-card link. Clients pay online and the money goes straight to your account.

How do I send a client a statement of account?

Choose the client and the app builds a branded statement of account showing invoiced, paid and outstanding amounts with current / 30 / 60 / 90-day aging — ready to email.

Do I need an ABN to send an invoice in Australia?

Most businesses need an ABN to invoice; without one, customers may have to withhold tax from their payment to you. Once you have an ABN, add it in Settings and it appears on every tax invoice automatically. (General information, not tax advice — see our Disclaimer.)
