Ltd. is using artificial intelligence (AI) agents to automate accounting for small businesses, turning bank and point-of-sale (POS) data into financial statements within minutes. “What we provide them is full-service accounting and full-service financial operations,” founder and CEO Bhavana Ravindran told Singapore Business Review. Earlybird AI combines its software with an in-house team of certified public accountants and chartered accountants to review and support client accounts.
