Question 2

General information

Accepted Answer

What is Tabby?

Tabby is AI bookkeeping software for US small businesses. It connects to your bank and credit card accounts, categorizes every transaction into the right tax category, and keeps a full double-entry general ledger. You get a Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow statement and a tax-ready report without doing the bookkeeping by hand.

Who is Tabby for?

Tabby is built for solopreneurs, freelancers and small businesses in the US that want clean books without hiring a full-time bookkeeper. Typical users are real estate agents, contractors, consultants, coaches, restaurants, salons and other service businesses, and solo licensed professionals. Accountants and bookkeepers use Tabby for Accountants to manage their clients.

What does Tabby do?

Tabby does the day-to-day bookkeeping for you:

Imports transactions from your bank and credit cards
Categorizes them with AI and learns from your corrections
Sends invoices, estimates and sales receipts, and records payments
Tracks bills, vendors, receipts and 1099 contractors
Produces financial statements and a tax-ready report for your CPA

How does Tabby work?

You connect your bank accounts through Plaid or upload statements. Tabby reads each transaction, suggests a category, a vendor and the matching tax line, and posts it to your books. Anything it isn't sure about goes to a Review queue for you to approve. Every correction teaches Tabby how you want similar transactions handled next time.

Question 3

Bank feeds: view, categorize and fix every transaction

Accepted Answer

Bank feeds is the list of every transaction from your connected bank and card accounts. Tabby categorizes each one as it arrives. Your part is smaller: check its work, fix what it got wrong, and deal with the few it couldn't place.

This guide covers everything on the page, from reading a single row to splitting, matching and exporting.

|| Before you start: Bank feeds is empty until you connect an account or upload a statement. See Bank connections to set that up.

A Quick Tour of the Page

Open Bank feeds from the left sidebar.

The Bank feeds page with numbered callouts The Bank feeds page. The numbers match the list below.

Page actions. Upload a statement, export what you see to CSV, or connect another account.
Connected accounts. One card for each account that feeds this page.

Status tabs. All, Categorized, Excluded and Matched.
Search and Filters. Narrow the list down.

Connected accounts

Question 4

Get started with Tabby Talk

Accepted Answer

Tabby Talk is the AI assistant built into Tabby. You type what you need in plain English. It can answer questions about your books, and when you ask, it does bookkeeping work for you: categorizing transactions, drafting invoices, logging expenses and running reports.

It never changes your books without showing you first. Every change waits for your approval.

Tabby Talk is in beta, so you'll see a Beta label next to its name.

Agent or Chats: which one to use

Tabby Talk has two tabs. They do different jobs.

You don't have to get this right. If you type a question into the Agent tab, Tabby opens it in Chats for you.
