This week’s episode (sponsored by Employment Hero) dives into the latest accounting tech news, with sharp takes and practical insights from the team. We cover:

  • Chaser’s new automated late fees and early payment discounts — and why it’s about more than just chasing debt

  • Vinyl’s $2m raise to tackle meeting admin with AI — and whether its specialisation is enough to break through into the overcrowded AI notetaker market

  • FreeAgent’s CIS update for contractors — and why it’s a smart move for a MTD-era market

  • Xero’s long-overdue inventory upgrades and what it means for product-based businesses

  • Dext’s long-awaited prepayments

  • Plus: Tugger’s Power BI integration powered by LLMs, helping firms unlock data insights without a data analyst

We also touch on emerging trends in outsourcing, AI-powered forecasting, and much more!
