Your First AccountEdge AI Project, Step by Step

From your first question to a finished, exportable report — step by step.

You've linked AccountEdge AI and the sync is done. Here's what happens next.

  1. Open your workspace

    Go to app.accountedge.ai and choose your workspace. If you have more than one, pick from the workspace dropdown in the top left.

  2. Ask for what you want

    Type a plain English sentence. Don't overthink it. For example: "Build me a P&L for the last 3 months."

  3. Read what comes back

    Within seconds, you get a formatted project built from your own data, not a template. The left side of the window displays insights and a project summary.

  4. Refine in conversation

    Skip the new prompt. Skip the new project. Keep talking. This back-and-forth gets you the best results. Try asking AccountEdge AI to:

    • Break it down by month.

    • Compare it to the same period last year.

    • Explain why a number spiked.

  5. Add charts and graphs

    Click the Charts icon in the prompt box. AccountEdge AI suggests a few chart options based on your results. Select one, then change the chart type to customize further. Click the Charts icon again to add more visuals. Reports, Charts, and Exporting in AccountEdge AI has more on working with visuals.

  6. Export or share

    Click the three dots in the upper right corner of the window. Select Export as PDF. AccountEdge AI Plus users get CSV and Excel export too. Reports, Charts, and Exporting in AccountEdge AI covers all the export options.

  7. Come back next period

    Open the same project and regenerate it, using the same three-dot menu, against a fresh date range. Building the perfect prompt took an hour the first time. Every time after that takes seconds.
