Jack Co-Pilot uses Jenesys’ Accounting Large Model (ALM)
Jenesys’ “Accounting Language Model” is based on the Large Language Model, which powers ChatGPT and Google Bard. This model powers Jack’s co-pilot.
Jack had 4,500 hours of training using 220,000 practice invoices and receipts, according to CEO Nicolai Thomson. Jenesys acquired the Danish tax tech business for VAT Key to provide pan-EU training data. The VAT Key acquisition helps Jenesys overcome payment compliance difficulties and facilitate global payments at Wise and Revolut-like rates.
According to accountingWEB, Thomson said Jack thrives with Xero account codes and VAT calculations, whereas ChatGPT struggles. With team-annotated data points, it handles accounting regulations easily. He said Jack’s long-term memory ensures accuracy without character or time limits.
In development, accounting professionals can register interest on Jenesys’ practice page and join a waiting list. Here’s Jack’s AI ALM data extraction and approval demo.
Nicolai Thomson and Tosin Dairo started the company in November 2022. In 2023, it made a name for itself at accounting trade shows. For the first tests of its Jack co-pilot, the company teamed up with UK accounting businesses. Jenesys said in a release that a $1.1 million pre-seed funding round led by AI investors Nick Slater and John Spindler, with involvement from around the world, will primarily go towards engineering, customer success, and expanding global payment compliance.
