Accounting systems that use ML/AI

I just got a new job (Operations) and the Accounting team reports to me.

We use QuickBooks Enterprise, which works just fine for us. But there's a lot of repetitive tasks, especially ingesting data, which IMO would be a great application for ML/AI.

Our Accounting needs are plan vanilla, but we do ingest a lot of data. Are there any Accounting systems that use ML/AI? Any startups in the space?

Not looking for an AP or AR solution, and not looking for an ERP either, just a new QuickBooks so to speak.

It sounds like you're talking about robotic process automation (rpa) rather than ML, unless you mean something specific like receipt scanning (which expensive has). There are many companies in the rpa space. What's an example of a task you would want to see automated.
