No credit card · Your data stays yours · No lock-in
The problem
A day in an admin office
Are you an administrative employee or manager at an SME? Then you know these scenes exactly.
Vendor invoices in a flood
SDI drops 40 invoices in the morning. You open PDF after PDF, retype amounts, pick the account, save. 90 seconds per invoice, minimum.
Day-book from memory
A bank credit lands with no clear reference. You sort of remember which customer it is — but never the right account for that entry. You open the ledger, search, match.
Endless bank reconciliation
End of month: 200 bank lines to tick off. A second Excel sheet. When you find a 12 € gap, you lose an afternoon.
Deadlines to chase
F24, VAT, tax returns. Either you remember them, or the accountant does. Either way it's always a race against the clock.
Accountant at a distance
You email files, they send corrections back, you re-enter by hand. You never really work on the same up-to-date data.
Closings always uphill
Monthly, quarterly or annual statements: adjusting entries, accruals and deferrals, reconciliations and balancing to redo every time, in a rush.
The solution
SamBooks works with you, not instead of you
Sam AI is a colleague: he knows your books, he doesn't run blind. You stay in control, he cuts the repetitive work.
Vendor invoices in batch
Sam AI reads PDFs and XMLs, proposes account, VAT and ledger entry. You approve 40 invoices in 5 minutes, not in an hour.
Automatic reconciliation
Sam AI matches bank lines to open invoices by amount, date and counterparty. He asks about the edge cases, he shows you the evidence.
Proactive tax calendar
F24, VAT, withholdings, contributions. Sam AI warns you ahead, computes the amounts, prepares the form. You sign and send.
Answers from your data, in chat
How much does customer Rossi owe? How much fuel in March? What is inventory worth? Ask Sam AI, he answers from live data.
Before & after
The same day, two different tools
Same desk, same computer, same company. Only the tool changes.
Without SamBooks
- 08:30 — Open the ERP, check SDI, download 22 vendor invoices
- 09:00 — Type them in one by one: account, VAT, ledger, plafond if exempt
- 10:45 — Coffee break (deserved)
- 11:00 — Open the bank Excel, match transactions, post receipts and payments
- 15:00 — Afternoon on tax returns, interrupted every ten minutes
- 18:00 — Leaving with one doubt: which deadlines am I forgetting for tomorrow?
With SamBooks
- 08:30 — Sam AI shows me the 22 invoices already pre-categorised
- 08:45 — I bulk-approve, fix the 2 that look off
- 09:00 — Sam AI already matched the receipts, I review the 3 he flagged
- 09:15 — Sam AI pings me: F24 due Friday, €4,213.40, form ready
- 09:30 — The repetitive work is done: time left for the analysis that really matters

Frequently asked questions
Business management software: common questions
What is business management software?
Business management software lets a company keep accounting, invoicing and tax compliance in one place, instead of spreadsheets and separate tools. SamBooks is cloud software with an AI agent, Sam, that records invoices, reconciles the bank and prepares filings; you review and approve.
What is the best accounting software for an SME?
It depends on your needs, but for an SME with an administrative office doing double-entry accounting, the ideal tool combines native double-entry, electronic invoicing via SDI and automation. SamBooks brings them together in a single cloud platform with native AI, built for whoever runs administration every day.
Is cloud software suitable for an Italian limited company (SRL) on ordinary accounting?
Yes. SamBooks is built for the ordinary double-entry accounting of SRLs, SpAs and SNCs: journal entries, VAT registers, settlements, CEE financial statements and inbound and outbound invoicing (TD01–TD28). It is not just invoicing software, but a complete accounting system.
How much does business management software for an SME cost?
SamBooks starts at €99.90/month (€999/year) with the Starter plan and goes up to €199.90/month (€1,999/year) with Pro; Unlimited is custom. Pricing is per company, with no per-user fee, and every plan includes a free trial.
Does it integrate with the bank and the Italian Revenue Agency?
Yes. SamBooks connects to banks via Open Banking (PSD2) to import and reconcile transactions, and talks to the Exchange System (SDI) to send and receive electronic invoices. It also handles F24, VIES and the other filings of the Italian tax ecosystem.
Do I still need an accountant with business management software?
Yes. SamBooks is the software your in-house team uses; your accountant receives data already in order and can work on the same platform. Sam does not replace the professional: it prepares the work and cites the regulatory sources, leaving the tax judgments to them.
