Running a small consulting firm means wearing all the hats, including bookkeeping. I was spending entire Sunday afternoons just entering receipt and invoice data. Asked my accountant for advice and she recommended trying AI document extraction. Game changer. Now I just dump all my receipts/invoices from the week (usually 20-30 docs), tell it what data to pull, and get a clean spreadsheet in literally 5 minutes. If anyone else is drowning in paperwork: - Take photos of all receipts immediately - Save all PDFs in one folder - Process them in batches weekly (not daily) - Use extraction software (I use Xtracto ai - $12/month, but the free tier might be enough for you) - Import the CSV to your accounting software Saved me 3-4 hours per week. That's 200 hours a year I can spend on actual business growth. Anyone else find good ways to automate their admin work?
