Outsourced accounting for New Zealand accounting firms
AnnualsAI (Annuals AI) is an AI outsourcing service for NZ accounting practices. We prepare annual accounts, income tax returns, workpapers, GST returns and bookkeeping clean-ups inside your firm's own software, ready for your review.
What you can outsource
Year-end and compliance work for your NZ clients
Annual accounts
Financial statements in your firm's format, with workpapers showing how each balance was worked out.
- IR3: individuals and sole traders
- IR4: companies
- IR6: trusts and estates
- IR7: partnerships and look-through companies
GST returns
Transactions checked for GST coding and return figures prepared with supporting workings, ready for your firm to review and file with Inland Revenue.
Bookkeeping clean-up
Behind or messy books brought up to date before year-end, including scanned manual cash books, invoices and receipts.
Why NZ firms outsource
More capacity without hiring
- Clear your year-end backlog without recruiting or training new staff.
- Annual accounts delivered within 5 days of receiving everything we need. The AI works nights and weekends, and the clock pauses while a query is with your firm.
- Work is done inside your own systems: Xero, MYOB, XPM, Xero Workpapers, FYI, Karbon and more.
- Prices set to be no more than outsourcing overseas, for example to teams in India or the Philippines.
- Your first job is free (one entity), so you can test the quality on a real file.
Open about AI
Prepared by AI. Reviewed by AI. Signed off by your firm.
Every job is prepared by artificial intelligence and reviewed by AI. No person at AnnualsAI prepares or reviews the work. Your firm reviews it, stays responsible for it, and decides what is filed with IRD. We never file anything ourselves.
AI can make mistakes, which is why every job must be checked by your firm before sign-off. To do the work, your clients' information is processed by our AI provider. Read our AI disclosure and privacy policy for the details.
