## Good for

- Accountants and bookkeepers handling documents for several clients

## Worth knowing

- Pricing is by credits, not by user: an invoice is 1 credit, an invoice with line items 2, a supplier statement 2, and a bank or credit card statement 3 credits per page.
- Prices on the page are shown excluding VAT.
- It is a data-entry layer: it needs an accounting package to publish into and is not an expense-reporting or reimbursement system.
- The pricing page shows monthly plans only; the vendor's pages do not list a free plan.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. AutoEntry reads invoices, receipts and bank statements and posts the figures into accounting software, from $13 a month for 50 credits. It's a data-entry layer, not an expense claims system, so it needs an accounting package behind it and the credits can run out fast.

- **Value for money: C.** $13 a month for 50 credits (about $0.26 each), against a middle of $12 for expense tools. Prices are before VAT.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** A free trial with 25 credits, and the pricing page says no credit card is needed. There's no free plan.
- **Features: D.** It captures and categorises documents, but it needs an accounting package to post into and doesn't handle expense claims or reimbursement.
- **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. You connect it to your accounting software and set up how documents are coded.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, iPhone and Android, with Sage, Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent and KashFlow on the list. No desktop app.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace AutoEntry you would be making live feeds from your bank, which take an agreement with each bank or a service that has them. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It costs $156 a year.

- You could make: Expense tracking: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Live feeds from your bank, which take an agreement with each bank or a service that has them.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Sage, Xero and QuickBooks among them.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
