Fern

Meet Fern, your bookkeeping guide.

Fern finds likely connections, learns from your confirmations and brings uncertain decisions to you. Suggestions stay suggestions until you approve them.

  • “Fern found a likely match.”
  • “Fern suggests Office Supplies.”
  • “Fern categorized similar transactions this way.”
  • “Fern needs your help with this one.”

Your books. Your decisions.

  • AI suggestions require your review before they become part of your books.
  • You can change or skip any suggestion.
  • Financial Fern does not provide accounting, tax, legal or investment advice.
  • You remain responsible for reviewing your records.
  • Today the product uses manual uploads rather than direct bank access.

Private file storage

Uploads go through authenticated APIs into private object storage. Browser clients cannot write files directly.

Your business scope

Signed-in access is scoped to your business workspace.
