What is Accountable?
Accountable is a bookkeeping and tax app for freelancers and sole proprietors in Germany, run by a Belgian company. AI reads and categorizes receipts, and an AI tax advisor answers tax questions based on the user's own data.
Accountable combines invoicing, including ZUGFeRD, XRechnung and Peppol e-invoices, expense booking, bank connections, VAT filings and annual tax returns in one mobile and web app. Higher plans add chat support from tax coaches, a tax guarantee and personal calls. Accountable SA is based in Saint-Josse-ten-Noode, Belgium, runs a branch in Berlin and is licensed by the National Bank of Belgium as a payment institution for account aggregation under PSD2. It cites more than 40,000 self-employed users in Germany. The app targets individuals without a tax advisor, not companies with a finance team.
Accountable AI features and use cases
- Scans and categorizes receiptsAI text recognition reads photographed or uploaded receipts and assigns them to the matching tax category. Self-employed users skip manual categorization and see the tax effect of each expense right away.
- Suggests receipt matchesAccountable proposes which receipt belongs to which transaction. The vendor describes a self-learning system that permanently remembers customers and invoice items, so recurring entries need less manual assignment over time.
- Answers tax questionsThe AI tax advisor answers tax questions around the clock and gives tips based on the user's own data. Accountable states that its tax knowledge is checked manually by experts and warns that the AI can be wrong.
What sets Accountable apart
- Combines bookkeeping with tax filing, human tax coaches and a tax guarantee for self-employed users who work without a tax advisor.
- Includes unlimited ZUGFeRD and XRechnung e-invoices with Peppol support in all plans, including the free plan.
Where Accountable is strongest
Questions to ask before you buy Accountable
Check whether you need a tax advisor at all or want to file yourself, since Accountable is built for self-filers. If an advisor stays involved, confirm that the DATEV export, available from the Buchhaltung plan, fits their process. Ask where data is hosted and request the data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR; neither was published on the pages we checked in September 2026.
