Kipper

Kipper is a conversational AI tool that connects to major accounting platforms—NetSuite, QuickBooks, and Xero—to provide instant answers to plain-English questions about financial data. It operates inside the messaging tools that teams already use, including Slack, Microsoft Teams, SMS, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. Instead of routing every financial question through a human analyst, Kipper translates natural language into precise SQL queries against live data, delivering actual numbers, not guesses. Unlike retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) approaches that search documents and summarize, Kipper uses query translation to return exact figures from the source system. This read-only architecture ensures that it can never alter or delete financial records, and every query is logged for audit purposes. Answers typically arrive in about five seconds, making it as fast as asking a colleague in the next cubicle. Setup takes minutes: an admin connects the accounting system, installs the Kipper app in Slack or Teams, and configures access scopes by team, account, or role. From that point, any authorized user can ask questions like "What's our total overdue AR?" or "Show me last month's revenue by customer" and receive a structured answer directly in the chat. The service encrypts all data in transit and at rest. Kipper targets finance, sales, and operations teams that need self-service access to real-time financial metrics without waiting for reports. It eliminates the back-and-forth that often delays decisions and reduces the burden on finance analysts, allowing them to focus on higher-value work.

Problem solved

Kipper eliminates the bottleneck of accessing financial data by allowing non-finance team members to ask questions in natural language and get accurate, real-time answers from their accounting systems. This reduces dependency on finance analysts for routine inquiries, speeds up decision-making, and ensures that everyone works with the same source of truth.
