You founded in Austria. The invoices, the tax letters, FinanzOnline — all German. useAccount.AI is not accounting software you have to operate — it is an inbox you feed: forward the German paperwork and it reads it for you, books it correctly under Austrian law, and explains every step in plain English.
No credit card. English interface from the first click. Cancel anytime.
You're not doing it wrong. It's genuinely confusing — in any language. So we built the tool that translates the bureaucracy, not just the buttons.
Email any invoice or receipt — PDF or photo, German or English — to your personal @inbox.useaccount.ai address.
It extracts every §11 UStG field, applies the right VAT rate (20/13/10/0 %), picks the EKR account and books a balanced double entry. High confidence books automatically.
Every booking, report and warning is in English. Anything uncertain waits in a review screen; correct it once and the rule is learned for that vendor.
Not a translated German tool — an Austrian tool that happens to speak your language.
The whole app in English, switchable to German any time. Your Steuerberater gets standard DATEV/BMD exports — everyone works in their own language.
Invoices, receipts, credit notes, even SVS contribution letters — the AI reads them like an Austrian accountant and tells you in English what they mean and how they were booked.
Austria's VAT return, generated from live data with the official Kennzahlen FinanzOnline expects — each box explained in English before you file.
Under the €55,000 exemption? Your invoices carry the correct legal note instead of VAT, and the tool warns you before you accidentally charge VAT anyway.
EU reverse charge, intra-community deliveries, exports — with the legally required invoice notes and gapless numbering (§11 UStG). Your US client gets a compliant Austrian invoice.
Append-only journal per BAO §131, Austrian EKR chart of accounts, Storno corrections — an audit holds up even if your German doesn't.

Yes. useAccount.AI is one of the few Austrian accounting tools with a fully English interface — every screen, report and explanation. Your Steuerberater can still get everything in German: the UI is switchable and exports (DATEV/BMD) follow Austrian standards.
That's the core of the product. Forward a German PDF or photo by email and the AI extracts all §11 UStG fields, applies Austrian VAT (20/13/10/0 %), picks the right EKR account and books a balanced double entry — then shows you in English what it did and why.
The UVA is Austria's periodic VAT return. useAccount.AI generates it from your live bookings with the official Kennzahlen (box numbers) that FinanzOnline expects — with English explanations of each line, so you know what you're filing.
Yes. The €55,000 small-business exemption (§ 6 Abs 1 Z 27 UStG) is built in: your outgoing invoices carry the correct exemption note instead of VAT, the tool warns you if an invoice would charge VAT anyway, and reports adjust accordingly. The Regelbesteuerung opt-out is supported too.
For the annual tax return and structural questions, usually yes — and useAccount.AI makes that cooperation cheap: your books arrive clean, audit-proof (BAO §131) and exportable to DATEV/BMD, so the advisor bills hours for advice, not for typing receipts.
Yes. Outgoing invoices support EU B2B reverse charge, intra-community deliveries and exports — each with the legally required note on the invoice and the right treatment in your VAT return, plus gapless invoice numbering as §11 UStG demands.
