The future of accounting requires careful consideration of privacy, security, and compliance from the outset is key in the future of accounting and pivotal in consumers data protection and trust.

With accounting and finance more open than ever, Digits is protecting your data with even higher standards. Last year, we launched the first private, accurate, and secure finance AI developed for startups & accountants and is a testament to our security-first approach.
