QuickBooks AI

QuickBooks AI refers to Intuit Intelligence and the AI agents built into QuickBooks Online. The assistant uses connected accounting, payments, and payroll data to answer business questions, surface financial patterns, and help complete bookkeeping tasks. Specialized capabilities cover accounting, payments, customers, projects, finance, payroll, and sales tax, while keeping review and approval with the user.

✨ Key Features

• Ask questions in plain language — Retrieve company-specific answers and guidance from connected QuickBooks data.
• Manage transactions — Categorize activity, request missing details, match receipts, and flag unusual entries for review.
• Create business documents — Help prepare invoices, estimates, expenses, bills, and related accounting records.
• Reconcile accounts — Identify possible discrepancies and explain suggested resolutions on eligible plans.
• Generate reports and insights — Create or refine reports, highlight trends, and surface profit-and-loss information.
• Improve cash flow — Analyze payment behavior, draft reminders, and help teams follow up on overdue invoices.
• Plan projects and finances — Support budgets, profitability monitoring, forecasts, and variance analysis where available.
• Keep people in control — Present proposed actions and exceptions for user or accountant review before sensitive changes.

💳 Pricing

Intuit Intelligence is included within eligible paid QuickBooks products, rather than a standalone free or freemium accounting assistant. The August 27, 2026 eligibility notice lists QuickBooks Online and Intuit Accountant Suite as currently supported; single-entity Intuit Enterprise Suite customers can apply for early access. This is more limited than the general IES wording in the older August 5 task guide.

Chat allowances reset with the billing cycle. The official notice lists a US$10/month prompt add-on, which increases usage without making it unlimited. Subscription, plan, region, role, and rollout eligibility apply. Payroll actions additionally require an active Intuit QuickBooks Workforce subscription. Confirm the account's current entitlement before purchasing.
