1. Technology overview
SimpleAI is a Singapore-based company founded in 2023 by Roger Tan, Shim Youngjun and Bryan Sng. It provides AI agents that take over repetitive work in accounting, finance, HR and operations, and sells mainly to accounting firms and fund administrators. The domain simpleai.sg redirects to simpleaiworks.com.
Its flagship SAAM agent extracts data from invoices, bills and bank statements, classifies entries, reconciles transactions and prepares them for publishing to accounting software such as Xero and QuickBooks. It learns from corrections and history, and a plan mode lets accountants approve entries before posting. The site cites 200+ accounting firms as users.
