The problem: small accounting firm AI doesn't see prior bookkeeping decisions
Client A categorizes Stripe fees as expenses; Client B as cost of revenue. The senior bookkeeper knows. The AI re-asks every month. The junior staff onboarding to a client guesses wrong because nothing canonical exists.

Try this use case on your own account
A fictional three-person bookkeeping firm keeps the books for two clients, each in its own MemoryLake project: the owner's onboarding thread and past ledger exports (.xlsx). September's bank feed is categorized line by line: the client's rule, else the last time that payee was booked, cited to its ledger row, else ask the client. The same card-fee line becomes Cost of revenue for one client and Bank and merchant fees for the other; a corrupted export is fixed in place; and every cited row is checked against the original workbook.
What you will see
- Per-client rules pinned from the owner's own words (
fact add+ metadata); every lookup is scoped--projects <client>, so one vendor can mean two things - Spreadsheet citations: an .xlsx search hit is a table with the cells it covers, so a precedent is cited as
file · Ledger!A15:E15and re-checked cell by cell againstproj doc download(6 of 6, next-row control rejected) - How each workbook was read:
proj doc inspectfinds two tables on one sheet; a broken export shows inproj statsandproj doc get(ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED) and is fixed withlib upload --on-conflict overwrite+proj doc reload - "Why is it booked that way?": the rule's message and the batch MemoryLake read it in (
conv consumed-messages), with the owner's reason. Plus a local web UI
