SolydLedger
The AI-powered financial operating system for African SMEs.
The What & Why
SolydLedger is an AI-powered financial operating system designed to digitize the $300B+ informal SME market in Africa, bridging the gap between chaotic manual bookkeeping and professional compliance. Unlike traditional accounting software, SolydLedger is "Offline-First" and uses a Hybrid AI architecture. We utilize on-device ML for instant data entry and Cloud AI for high-fidelity document processing. Our standout feature is a Generative AI Tax Agent, capable of interpreting complex, region-specific tax laws to provide real-time compliance advice and automated tax filing preparation for small business owners. We are not just a ledger; we are the "Virtual CFO" for the African merchant.
How We Leverage Google Cloud AI
- Generative AI Tax Agent (Vertex AI)
- The core of our intelligence is a 'Tax Compliance Bot' intended to be built on Vertex AI. We use RAG to ingest complex tax codes, allowing the LLM to provide context-aware compliance advice to users.
- High-Fidelity OCR (Vision AI)
- We utilize Google's Cloud Vision API to power our receipt and invoice scanning, converting physical paper trails into structured financial data with near-perfect accuracy.
- Scalable Microservices (Cloud Run)
- Our planned custom microservices, including OCR post-processing and report generation, are containerized and deployed on Cloud Run for auto-scaling serverless efficiency.
