AI reads every line.

AI reads every transaction on the page: dates, amounts, descriptions, and running balances. Works with digital PDFs and scanned documents alike. Every transaction captured, nothing missed.

03 — Categorize

It learns your preferences.

AI suggests QuickBooks accounts and vendors based on your firm's chart of accounts. After three similar transactions, pattern matching takes over. Your corrections stick. Custom AI instructions per client let you fine-tune behavior further.

Reconciliation

Synced
04 — Sync

One click to QuickBooks.

Push reconciled transactions directly to QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Desktop via Web Connector. Validate balances and generate downloadable PDF reports.

How It Learns

Statements gets smarter with every document you process.

Your corrections become the system's knowledge. No retraining, no configuration files. Just use it.

Pattern Learning

Categorize a transaction three times the same way and the pattern locks in. Similar transactions get auto-categorized from then on. No AI needed.

Per-Client AI Instructions

Every client categorizes differently. Write plain-language instructions per company that override the AI's default behavior. "Classify all Stripe deposits as Sales Revenue." Done.

Transfer Detection

Moving money between accounts creates duplicates across statements. Cairn detects cross-statement transfers automatically and excludes them from sync.
