Stokbroekx & Stokbroekx understand why you need to deploy AI now.
At Stokbroekx & Stokbroekx, they have been serving their clients in accounting and tax matters for over thirty years. Their focus? The SME sector: the self-employed, small companies and partnerships with up to twenty or so employees. But even with years of experience, the firm does not stand still, on the contrary.
In a new video, Frank Stokbroekx talks candidly about their first steps with artificial intelligence (AI). No grand promises or empty hype, but a realistic look at how AI can support the office.
"AI is a hot topic. It's good support, but you have to keep double-checking," Frank says.
The first application? Automating meeting reports. Using AI, conversations during customer meetings are turned into clear reports. Tasks are followed up automatically, and at the next meeting it is easy to look back: what was discussed, what action points are there?
That automation mainly saves time something that is worth its weight in gold in the busy accounting industry.
"We have very little time. What is left is filled back up with other files," Frank said. "But we hope, with the help of AI and other tools, to create some more space. Time for quality."
With this first step, Stokbroekx & Stokbroekx shows that even in a traditional sector like accounting, innovation is both possible and necessary.
