Why do we use AI?
At Sage, the ambition is to create the world's most trusted and thriving network for SMBs, powered by AI. Correctly used, AI can enhance processes and help businesses get time back. That's why we want to embed it within all of our tools.
How do we use AI?
Sage Earth Carbon Accounting uses AI to categorise transactions synced from your financial accounting platform. This helps speed up the process of making sure Sage Earth Carbon Accounting has all the data it needs to estimate your carbon footprint.
While AI handles most of the categorisation, you’ll need to confirm or re-categorise some transactions to ensure maximum accuracy.
Each confirmation or correction helps the system learn and improves efficiency over time.
Sage Carbon Accounting syncs and checks for new transactions daily to keep your data up to date.
