Hey, !

Welcome back to AI Accounting Daily.

Client uploaded one giant PDF. I didn't cry.

Client uploaded one giant PDF. I didn't cry.

It was 87 pages. W-2s. Bank statements. A 2019 grocery receipt. Six copies of the same 1099.

All in one unholy PDF named "tax stuff final."


I used to spend an hour splitting these apart. Renaming. Sorting. Double-checking I didn't miss anything buried on page 73.


That's not accounting. That's unpaid IT work.


I switched to Canopy. Now? The AI rips the PDF apart.

Matches each doc to my checklist. Renames them using my firm's naming rules.

I didn't touch anything.


Stop sorting. Start working. Use Canopy.
