Sanso

Sanso is an automated financial assistant for small and medium businesses. It takes over repetitive back-office tasks like collecting supplier invoices, reconciling bank transactions, and chasing unpaid bills. Instead of adding another tool to learn, Sanso plugs into what you already use — accounting software like Pennylane, QuickBooks, or Xero, plus email, WhatsApp, Slack, and more. The idea is simple: you stop doing the busywork, and Sanso does it for you.

Here's how it works. After a quick audit of your needs, Sanso connects to your existing accounts and starts executing tasks. It pulls invoices from emails and supplier portals, matches them to bank transactions automatically, and sends personalized payment reminders to clients who are late. When automation hits a snag, a human expert on Sanso's team steps in to ensure accuracy. The result is delivered straight into your accounting software — no manual data entry, no double-checking. The company claims it can cut the time you spend on financial management from about 10 days per month down to one.

Sanso is built for founders, finance managers, and operations leads at SMBs who are tired of drowning in paperwork. It's especially useful for companies that have outgrown a shoebox approach but aren't ready to hire a full-time finance person. Real-world use cases include a restaurant group that needs to reconcile daily sales across multiple locations, a SaaS startup that wants to automate invoice collection without hiring a bookkeeper, or a consultancy that spends too much time chasing late payments. If you already use tools like Pennylane or QuickBooks, Sanso layers on top of them to handle the execution side.
