The job
Bookkeeping preparers send client invoices and receipts through Tofu once it has been trained on each client. Tofu reads the documents and posts them to Xero or QuickBooks Online. Staff review the entries. The firm began with a handful of clients and now runs 14 through it.

What happened
The accounting manager says Tofu saves more than 50% of the bookkeeping time on data entry for well trained client entities.
The firm has grown from about 30 bookkeeping clients and 7 to 8 preparers to over 140 clients, with about 50 needing monthly bookkeeping and 10 to 12 preparers. It says client numbers have doubled with 60% more headcount.
Before you believe it
Tofu wrote the story, so it is a vendor story. The 50% is the accounting manager's estimate and only for well trained clients. Only 14 of 140 clients run through it, so it is not a firm wide figure. The page says the client growth also came from other causes. The page says a parent organisation first called for AI tests, so the firm may belong to a larger group.
