## The panel's verdict

Jortt, from the Dutch vendor Jortt B.V., scores highest on documents and banking at 6-7: bank feeds run on the vendor's own PSD2 licence to virtually all Dutch banks plus Revolut and the Mollie business account, matching uses 1,243 standard rules plus 10, 25 or 250 own rules by tier, Peppol e-invoices travel both directions, and AI scan and recognition arrives with the Plus tier. Its lowest scores are on pricing transparency at 1-2: tier names ZZP, MKB and Plus and their rule limits are public, but we found no public information on any price figure, billing period or VAT treatment. Tax and filings holds at 4-5, with Dutch VAT returns filed to the Belastingdienst and no public information on reverse charge, intra-community supply or OSS. Bookkeeping core and GoBD compliance span 4-6, a single judge at 6 on each; judges credit a genuine change history and a 4410-structured annual statement but found no public information on manual journals, a chart of accounts or period locking. Sovereignty sits at 3-4, with no sovereignty attributes on record.

**Speaks for it:**
- Bank feeds run on the vendor's own PSD2 licence to virtually all Dutch banks plus Revolut and the Mollie business account, syncing nightly and on demand every 5 minutes
- Matching runs on 1,243 standard rules plus 10, 25 or 250 of your own by tier, with Peppol e-invoices sent and received
- VAT returns are filed electronically to the Belastingdienst through the product, with bookings, returns and annual statement said to match one-to-one
- The change history records who and when created each booking, how it was made, and later edits with previous and new values
- The exit file — auditfile in XAF 4.0.3, invoice and receipt downloads, and the year-end accounts — is stated to satisfy a retention duty of at least 7 years

**Held against it:**
- We found no public information on any price figure, billing period or VAT treatment for the ZZP, MKB or Plus tiers
- We found no public information on manual journal postings, a configurable chart of accounts or a period close that locks
- We found no public information on where the books are hosted or on subprocessors, including for the AI tools connected via MCP from the MKB tier, and the record carries no sovereignty attributes
- We found no public information on reverse-charge, intra-community supply, OSS or correction filings
- We found no public information on an adviser login or shared workspace, so the handoff is an export with corrections re-entered by the customer

**Best for:**
- You run a Dutch business — zzp, webshop, holding or bv with staff — and want bank transactions booked and VAT returns filed to the Belastingdienst automatically
- Your accountant builds the annual statement from an XAF auditfile and enters corrections back into your books
- You send and receive Peppol e-invoices and want purchase invoices and receipts stored and renamed by booking number

**Avoid if:**
- Your adviser needs to work inside your books or exchange via DATEV, while the documented handoff is an XAF export with corrections re-entered by you
- You need a free-posting ledger with a configurable chart of accounts, manual journals and period locking, whereas the evidenced bookings land on fixed categories with VAT
- You must compute your annual invoice from public pages before committing, and the captured pages show no price figures at all

### The judges

- **The Bookkeeper** (v1.0): Posts the month and closes it. Wants a real ledger with SKR03/04, recurring entries, cost centres and a close that locks. Judges receipt capture by how many exceptions are left after the automation, not by the demo video.
- **The Tax Adviser** (v1.0): Closes the year for forty clients and needs the books to arrive in a form DATEV accepts, receipts attached. Reads "export to CSV for your Steuerberater" as an admission that nobody asked one. Wants scoped access and a clean period handover.
- **The Auditor** (v1.0): Arrives with a Betriebsprüfung and asks for the data export and the Verfahrensdokumentation. Wants postings that cannot be altered after the fact, corrections booked as reversals, a complete change history, and retention that survives the full statutory period.
- **The Founder** (v1.0): Runs a twelve-person company and does the books on a Sunday. Wants bank feeds that match themselves, invoices out in a minute, and the VAT return submitted without learning ELSTER. Will pay for the hour saved, and notices when the headline price was not the invoice.
- **The Integrator** (v1.0): Connects the books to the shop, the payment provider and the payroll system. Wants a documented API, e-invoicing both directions, and imports that reconcile rather than duplicate. Reads a Zapier logo as an outsourced integration.
- **The Skeptic** (v1.0): Has seen "GoBD-konform" printed on pages that offer no documentation to back it, and wants the feature that makes it true. Also reads for the booking limit, the tier where DATEV export appears, and what an extra bank account costs.
