Digits is the ledger and accounting system of record.
Not the ledger. An automation layer on top of QuickBooks Online, NetSuite, or Sage. The connected ledger remains the system of record and a separate subscription.
AI isn't a feature; it's the foundation. Digits is AI-native, powered by the Agentic General Ledger™ (AGL®). Proprietary models built for accounting and trained on 180 million real transactions representing nearly $1 trillion in financial activity auto-book, reconcile, and review continuously, then surface only the exceptions that need a human.
Agents run on general-purpose AI models, guided by saved Skills (codified SOPs) and connected systems. A published benchmark scores agents on Mercor Apex accounting tasks; no training data or model details are disclosed.
Digits automatically reconciles your accounts to bank statements (uploaded or connected) and flags only what needs review, so you can trust your numbers without doing the busywork. Reconciliation happens continuously, not just at month-end.
Agents compare statements to ledger detail, match transactions, and flag differences. Output is a formula-backed workbook plus proposed entries for review and sync.
Ask Digits is your ledger-native assistant, purpose-built for accounting. It understands your financial data and answers questions directly from the ledger. It is not a chat layer sitting on top of reports.
No ledger Q&A assistant. Agents take task instructions and produce workbooks and entries for review; they do not answer questions about the books.
AI does the routine work; you manage the exceptions. Exceptions and items flagged for review land in the Checklist, grouped by close step: uncategorized or low-confidence transactions, missing or duplicate items, schedule candidates, quality control flags, open comments, and more. With Digits Checklist, you review the close instead of preparing it.
Flags reconciliation differences and routes open questions to a reviewer. Checks run inside the Skills a team writes; a standing set of checks against the books is not described.
Describe a Quality Control check in plain English. Digits turns it into a deterministic check that runs the same way on every transaction, continuously. Built-in checks: missing fields, miscoding, duplicates, unusual activity, account validity, vendor changes, and more.
Users write Skills that spell out sources, rules, mappings, exception handling, and approvals. Agents follow them per run; results arrive as editable workbooks to inspect.
Digits automatically detects and drafts schedules directly in the ledger. You can also create a new one or import a schedule. After accountant approval, Digits automatically generates recurring entries for prepaids and fixed assets.
Agents build schedules and accruals as a Skill and produce entries for review and sync to the connected ledger. Automatic detection of transactions that need a schedule is not described.
More than automation. Built for scale.
If you're comparing platforms to find the best AI accounting software, don't stop at task automation. Digits pairs the Agentic General Ledger™ with what real-world finance teams need: unlimited users, built-in comments, departments and locations, plus bill pay, invoicing, and documents in the same ledger.

Dimensions live in the connected ledger. Skills can split entries by location or cost center before syncing. Dimensional reporting is not described.

One tool, no bolt-ons. Bill pay, invoicing, documents, and reconciliation run in the same system as your ledger.
One more layer on the stack: the ledger, the spreadsheet workbooks, and Stack are separate systems and logins. The broader Ramp platform adds cards, expenses, AP, and spend reporting.

Which Platform Is Right for You?
Digits Core
Is best for:
- Companies that want continuous Quality Control checks against live books, without scheduling a separate review workflow.
- Businesses that want bill pay, invoicing, and department or location reporting included with their accounting.
- Finance leaders who want the books and the automation in one system of record, not a ledger plus workbooks plus a separate agent workspace.
Ramp Stack
May be better for:
- Teams who prefer keeping their ledger in another system while AI prepares and syncs accounting work.
- Users willing to configure Skills, accounting preferences, and approval steps for recurring workflows.
- Business owners who are comfortable building reports from connected ledger data and reviewing formula-based workbooks.
Frequently asked questions
Digits is an AI-native general ledger. Ramp Stack is an AI workspace that sits alongside the ledger a team already uses, such as QuickBooks or NetSuite. Digits holds the books and runs bookkeeping, reconciliation, review, and reporting directly on them. Stack's agents pull data from the connected ledger, prepare the work in formula-backed spreadsheet workbooks for a person to review, and then sync approved entries back to that ledger. Digits is the stronger fit for teams that want the books and the automation in one system, with no separate ledger to keep in sync.
The difference starts with whose model does the work. Ramp Stack's agents run on general-purpose AI models, directed by the Skills a team writes, and Ramp doesn't disclose the models or the training behind them. Digits runs on Digits AGL® (Agentic General Ledger™), its own accounting-specific model architecture, built and trained on $1 trillion in real financial activity.
That ownership shows up in what each company can publish. In its 2026 benchmark, Digits AGL® achieved 97.8% transaction-categorization accuracy, scored against ground truth established by U.S.-based GAAP accountants, outperforming every frontier AI model tested, with the methodology published in Beyond the AI Hype: Evaluating LLMs vs. Digits AGL for Accounting Tasks. Ramp's Stack benchmark reports the share of evaluation criteria its agents meet across Mercor Apex accounting tasks plus custom Excel and reconciliation tasks, but it measures general-purpose agents, not a proprietary Ramp model.
Ramp Stack rents its intelligence from a general-purpose lab and steers it with Skills. Digits owns the accounting model and publishes how it performs.
Yes. Digits has a dedicated Ramp integration for card transactions, reimbursements, and bills. You can keep Ramp for spending and payments while using Digits as your accounting system.
