What the Upgrade Actually Means

Reckon is Australian. But it's not 2026.

Reckon has been around since 1987. It's a familiar name in Australian accounting, and it handles BAS and payroll well — for the tasks that still require human hands. XIntelliSync automates the same tasks, then goes 388+ phases deeper. Four verification systems check every AI action — against your live data, your industry rules, and 34+ compliance frameworks — before anything touches your books. Reckon asks you to do the work. We did the work, then built the system that proves it right.

No AI. No agents. No automation. Just more manual work.

Zero AI agents in Reckon. Your bank feeds are reconciled when you do it. Your BAS is prepared when you prepare it. Your invoices are chased when you chase them. XIntelliSync's 150+ agents handle all of this — without you asking.

Reckon is accounting. XIntelliSync is the operating system.

Reckon does not include CRM, market intelligence, revenue forecasting, customer health scoring, or business intelligence. For every business function beyond accounting, you need another tool. XIntelliSync is the tool that replaces all the others.

Legacy software has a price beyond the subscription.

Every hour spent inside legacy software — manually reconciling, re-entering data, formatting reports — is time that doesn't grow your business. XIntelliSync automates 75–130+ hours of admin per month depending on plan tier. That's capacity recovered for work that actually grows revenue.

Everything Reckon does. Plus 150+ agents that do the rest.

First month 50% off ($48.50). No setup fees. No lock-in contract. Cancel anytime. Reckon data imported in minutes.
