A real bookkeeping programme sits underneath: transactions from bank statements are booked automatically or through manually created and linked vouchers, a configurable rules engine books against named accounts, the payment account reconciles against the general ledger on standard account 1938, and currency accounts are supported. We found no public information on chart-of-accounts configuration, opening balances, period closing or locking of the fiscal year — the year surfaces only as the container for the export — so this sits between simplified bookkeeping and a complete ledger. 1 4 5

We found no public information on GoBD conformity, on whether postings become unalterable after close, on corrections booked as reversals, on a change history beyond a transaction list, on retention across the statutory period, or on a Verfahrensdokumentation. The only audit-relevant export evidenced is a SIE file taken per fiscal year, a Swedish transfer format, and nothing describes it as an export a German Betriebsprüfer would receive. 6 7

The captured material explains Swedish VAT registration — the number format, the registration duty above 120 000 kronor per tax year, validation of EU customers' numbers through VIES — and there is dedicated handling for rot/rut payouts from Skatteverket alongside a Skatteverket connection. We found no public information on preparing or electronically submitting any VAT return, on reverse charge or on cross-border schemes, so no filing is shown leaving the system. 3 4

Connections to twelve named Swedish institutions feed bookkeeping from bank statements that books a large share of transactions automatically, matching on invoice number, order number, payment reference, supplier name and amount-against-salance, backed by a rules engine, bulk handling and a full history of every booked transaction. Documents can be attached when creating a voucher and missing documentation can be requested; we found no public information on receipt capture with text recognition, on inbound e-invoicing, or on compliant archiving of the digital original, so the evidence chain is open at the paper end. 2 4 5

A documented SIE export per fiscal year moves the books to the adviser in the Swedish standard format, and the adviser is more than a recipient: there is a package for accounting agencies and Digital byrå users are notified of client transaction events and work the to-do list inside the system. We found no public information on receipt images travelling with the export, on scoped adviser access with an audit of what they changed, or on period handover with locking. 1 4 6 7

The Auditor

The contracting entity is Swedish and the support pages give a Swedish address in Växjö, but we found no public information on where the books are hosted, on data residency guarantees, or on any subprocessor list. A SIE export exists yet nothing ties it to statutory retention once a customer leaves, so durability of the record beyond the contract is unevidenced. 1 5

No price figure appears in the captured material — not a monthly rate, not a tier, not a limit, not a booking or user count. The buyer is routed instead to a buying guide that proposes which products the company needs and to a free introductory call, which is a sales conversation standing in for a price list. 1
