AI agents for accounting firms need firm controls.
Numbers Game supports a customer-selected Claude or ChatGPT workflow through MCP today. Its Numbers Game-run agent workflow is pilot-gated, with firm consent and review boundaries required before it is used with customer data.
Useful automation, with accountable review.
AI agents for accounting firms are useful only when the firm controls access, context, review, and accountability. An agent is not a substitute for a qualified accountant’s judgment.
Connect the work. Keep the controls.
Choose the operating model
Use the firm’s selected Claude or ChatGPT client through MCP for shipped workflows. Pilot-gated Numbers Game-run agents require explicit firm consent.
Limit client access
The firm chooses which client books an authorized workflow can reach and can revoke access when it should end.
Keep the reviewer accountable
The reviewer validates facts, evaluates applicable guidance, and approves conclusions or ledger outcomes.
Make room for review capacity.
Controlled preparation
Prepare a first pass on reconciliations, close work, reporting inputs, and client-facing drafts.
Firm-owned context
Use instructions and reference material that reflect how the firm actually works.
Exception escalation
Surface uncertainty and missing facts to the person responsible for the accounting decision.
QuickBooks Online or Xero remains the system of record. Numbers Game does not independently determine GAAP treatment.
