The short answer

How can accounting firms reduce administration with automation?

Liverpool, NSW South Yarra, VIC

Accounting firms reduce administration by automating enquiries, onboarding, document requests and reminders, and by giving partners live WIP and lock-up data instead of manual reports. Sharktech delivers this through AccrualOS, Business Intelligence dashboards and secure AI agents that draft routine work for accountants to approve, backed by cybersecurity and managed IT.

Enquiries to onboarding

Document requests and reminders handled automatically.

Live WIP and lock-up

Partners see current data, not month-end reports.

Secure by design

AI agents, cybersecurity and managed IT behind it all.

Accountants did not train to chase bank statements in October. Yet every lodgement season, skilled staff spend hours on reminders, onboarding paperwork and status emails, while partners wait for month-end to see WIP and lock-up. Since 1 July 2026, accountants providing designated services also carry AML/CTF obligations, adding client due diligence records to the pile. Automation takes the repetitive work off your team. Sharktech Global is an Australian AI tech lab, the Sharktech AI Tech Lab, with offices in Liverpool, New South Wales and South Yarra, Victoria. We design, build and run our own AI platforms and support accounting and finance across Liverpool, Parramatta, Campbelltown, Penrith and across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Newcastle, Wollongong and Geelong.

Problem and solution

How does Sharktech reduce administrative burden for accounting and finance?

Real problems. Delivered through Sharktech. Numbers you can check.

The problem

Chasing clients for documents every lodgement season

Staff send the same reminder emails and calls again and again, and returns stall waiting on one missing statement.

Delivered through Sharktech
AccrualOS automation

AccrualOS sends automated document requests and reminders, tracks what is outstanding against your compliance calendar, and shows the team exactly which clients are holding up which jobs.

What you measure

Documents received before deadline, hours spent chasing

The problem

Slow replies to enquiries and new client onboarding

Enquiries wait until someone is free, and onboarding means engagement letters, ID and forms passed back and forth by email.

Delivered through Sharktech
AccrualOS automation

AccrualOS answers enquiries with an AI assistant that never gives tax advice, books appointments, and runs onboarding with forms, engagement letters and reminders in one flow.

What you measure

Enquiry response time, days to onboard a new client

The problem

WIP and lock-up you only see at month end

Partners find out about write-offs and slow debtors after the damage is done, because the numbers sit inside the practice management system.

Delivered through Sharktech
Business Intelligence and data

We connect your practice management and accounting data into Business Intelligence dashboards for WIP, lock-up days, debtor days, realisation and recoverability by partner, client and service line.

What you measure

Lock-up days, write-offs, report preparation time

The problem

Client due diligence records for AML/CTF

Collecting identity and ownership documents, keeping records and scheduling re-verification is new manual work for many firms.

Delivered through Sharktech
Workflow automation

We automate the collection of due diligence documents, checklists, record keeping and re-verification reminders, so evidence is complete and easy to retrieve. Your AML/CTF program and decisions remain with your firm.

What you measure

Client files complete, records retrievable on request

The problem

Repetitive drafting between client work

Engagement letters, status emails, meeting notes and summaries take accountant time that could be billed.

Delivered through Sharktech
Secure AI agents

AI agents deployed inside your Microsoft 365 environment draft letters, emails and meeting summaries from your templates and records, for an accountant to review and approve before anything is sent.

What you measure

Drafting hours per week, drafts approved without rework

The problem

Client financial data and payment redirection fraud

Firms hold tax file numbers, bank details and identity documents, and criminals impersonate firms and clients to redirect payments.

Delivered through Sharktech
Cybersecurity

We assess you against the Essential Eight, enforce multi-factor authentication, configure email authentication to stop spoofing, review mailbox rules and run phishing simulations for partners and staff.

What you measure

Essential Eight maturity, phishing click rate, spoofing blocked

Secure AI agents

How do secure AI agents on your network reduce admin in accounting and finance?

The agent does the paperwork. Your people make the decisions.

An AI agent is software that completes a whole administrative job, such as collecting forms, drafting a report or answering an enquiry, rather than just answering a question. Sharktech designs, deploys and runs agents inside your own environment, connected to the systems you already use, with a person approving what matters.

How Sharktech deploys agents securely

Agents run inside your own environment with least-privilege access, a person approving every output and a full audit log. Your data is not used to train public models.
