Summary
Alexandre Stojanovic, Director of AI and Data at ISAGRI/AGIRIS, explains how AI is transforming accounting firms, from data entry to advisory. The rollout of e-invoicing in France (obligation to receive e-invoices for all VAT-liable companies since 1 September 2026, obligation to issue them for large companies and mid-sized companies from that date, then for SMEs and micro-businesses in 2027) is accelerating the availability of structured data. The AMICOMPTA solution, on the market since 2020, had processed more than 100 million invoices by early 2026, is approaching 4 million a month for more than 1,000 client firms, and automates more than 90% of detailed data entry (98% for e-invoices). AGIRIS is also developing an AI assistant, SAMI, to support review work, and is testing combinations with its collaborative platform bobbee and the IAnalytics project, designed to enrich client files with industry data to strengthen advice to clients.
