Hubdoc is a collects bills, receipts and statements, pulls out the key details and creates transactions in Xero or QuickBooks Online with the document attached.

Bookkeeping is where small businesses lose evenings. AI now handles the data entry; you keep the judgment.

## Hosted vs open source

Open source swaps a subscription for setup time. Hubdoc is hosted, supported and updated for you; with the tools below you (or someone you hire) install, update, back up and secure them. 0 of the 5 with a setup rating here need a developer. Most can also be bought as a hosted cloud plan from the same maintainers, which is a good middle path. Check each licence before you build on it.
