MesayaRoles › Accounting & bookkeeping
AI bookkeeping & accounting service

Bookkeeping, AP/AR and close — done by an AI employee in your ledger, reviewed by a named person.

Hire the role. We run the AI employee. A named person is accountable.

The books are current on the fifth, not the twentieth. Mesaya staffs accounting as roles — bookkeeping entries, invoice matching, collections, reconciliations, month-end close — with managed AI employees working in QuickBooks, Xero or NetSuite under your CPA's review, supervised by a named account manager.

Who it's for, how a role runs, what it costs — from our CEO. Also in Español, Français, Italiano, Português, עברית, Русский and 中文 at mesaya.com/explainer.

The roles hired first

AI employees, each working a real job end to end.

Every role is configured from agents already running in production — never a blank prompt. Each one gets its own service account, limited to the permissions you grant, and works inside the tools you already run.

How it works

Three weeks from a scoping call to an AI employee at work. Then the next role.

Week 1

Discover & scope

A discovery call on your business and its bottlenecks; one role picked for the trial; a scoping call on systems, rules and approvals. Our audit agent reads your email and systems so the history is understood in days, without meetings.

Week 2

Deploy & train

A graduated agent configured for the role, pre-trained with your manager on examples and edge cases. Service accounts, permissions and approval gates set in your own systems.

Week 3 · free

Shadow mode

The agent works; a human approves everything consequential. Every deliverable logged with its approval chain. Outcomes verified at the source.

Month 2+

Earned autonomy

Approvals recede as results prove out; exceptions and samples stay reviewed. Your account manager stays in the loop — and scopes the next role.

Your CPA still reviews

Clean books, on time — for your accountant to sign.

How control works

Write access with a review layer.

The agent works in your ledger under its own user with the permissions you grant.

Approval thresholds on payments and journal entries
Full audit trail in the ledger under the agent's own user
Multi-entity through your accounting system's structures

Otto runs finance and invoicing for Novettino and bookkeeping across Modani's departments.

You stay in control

Trust is earned — then extended.

How control works
  1. 1

    Shadow · week 1 — it drafts, you send.

  2. 2

    Ask first — it proposes, you approve.

  3. 3

    Routine — standard cases handled, exceptions to you.

  4. 4

    Autopilot — it runs; you get the digest.

Pricing

From $400 a month per role — and you only pay for completed work.

Simple as payroll, and a credit is always $1. No licenses, no implementation fee, month to month. Your first week is free.

Your plan
From $400

per month, per role. Each role is priced by its deliverables, so the minimum scales with the role.

Your credits at work
$1 = 1 credit

Every task has a credit price — a lead answered: 2, an invoice chased: 2, a report delivered: 6. Itemized on your log, reported as KPIs, reviewed by you.

Busy month?
Top up

Add credit batches when you need more done. You set a monthly cap; the bill never passes it.

In aggregate, a role lands at a fraction of what the same work costs in payroll. Rates shown are examples; your order sets yours, and outcome pricing is available where results are measurable — collections on dollars recovered, lead response on booked meetings. You see the exact price for your roles on the scoping call.

Proof

We ran it on our own company before offering it to yours.

Customer zero

Modani — 375 agents, seven departments

We founded Modani, a national furniture retailer, in 2007, sold it in 2018, and bought it back in 2024 to rebuild it on AI. Revenue is up 39% year over year with less than 40% of its former workforce. Every Mesaya role was graduated there first, on a live P&L.

Live clients

Clients across industries run these roles

The same roles run for clients in retail, distribution, professional services and hospitality — each inside their own tools, each with a named account manager. A live portal demo is available on request.

Questions we get

Before the scoping call.

Does our CPA still review?

Yes — that's the point. They get a clean, current file on the fifth instead of rebuilding it on the twentieth. Several CPA firms are hiring the role for their own clients.

Write access to the ledger?

Under the agent's own user, within the permissions you grant. Payments and journal entries above your thresholds wait for approval.

Audit trail?

Every entry is in the ledger under the agent's user, and every action is logged in the Mesaya portal with its approver.

Multi-entity?

Yes, through your accounting system's own structures; each entity coded and reconciled separately.

Cash or accrual?

Your basis, your rules, set on the scoping call.
