Features
Everything your books need, in one quiet place.
From the first bill to the last VAT return. Here is what afnoCA does for you, feature by feature.
Chat entry
Type what happened. It becomes an entry.
Write a sale, an expense or an investment the way you would tell a colleague, in English, Hindi or Nepali. Or send a photo of the bill. afnoCA prepares the entry and you check it before anything is saved.
- English, Hindi and Nepali
- Bill photos read for you
- Nothing is saved until you press Save
An example conversation Nepal VAT
13% VAT and PAN/VAT bills, built in.
Sales and purchase entries carry the right side of VAT, the 13% is worked out for you, and your VAT position stays up to date as you go, instead of arriving as a surprise at filing time.
- 13% VAT worked out
- PAN and VAT bill details
- Sales and purchase VAT kept apart
Invoices and estimates
Bill your customers and get paid.
Create invoices and estimates, email them with a link the customer can open without logging in, and record payments as they arrive. Paid, part-paid and overdue are worked out from the payments, never typed in by hand.
- Emailed with a view link
- Recorded payment by payment
- Amount in words, in NPR
Bills to pay
Know what you owe, and when.
Keep your vendors’ bills and part-payments in one place, so nothing is paid late, or paid twice.

- Tied to your ledger
Customers and vendors
Everyone you do business with, in one list.
Keep customers and vendors in one place and link them to invoices, bills and entries, so each name means the same person everywhere.
- Customers and vendors
- Linked to invoices and bills
- Reused across entries
Company records
Your official documents, and answers from them.
Upload your registration and PAN/VAT certificates, licences and contracts. afnoCA reads them, even scans, and answers your questions with the document and page each answer came from.

- Newer versions replace older ones
