The annual Expert Consumers review focuses on evaluating tools that streamline bookkeeping workflows, reduce error rates, and enable faster decision-making. This year's analysis emphasized platforms that provide scalable automation with minimal user input while offering clear ROI in everyday business scenarios.
QuickBooks earned top-tier marks for its integration of Intuit Assist, a conversational AI tool that enables users to perform tasks like invoice creation, bank reconciliation, and cash flow forecasting using simple prompts. Unlike traditional accounting software that relies on rule-based automation, QuickBooks incorporates a team of virtual AI agents that work together to generate actionable insights, process large volumes of transactional data, and reduce the need for manual intervention.
Why was QuickBooks selected as a top bookkeeping automation tool in 2025?
QuickBooks meets a growing demand among small and mid-sized enterprises for solutions that combine accuracy with usability. As financial compliance requirements increase and manual workflows become unsustainable, tools like QuickBooks have demonstrated measurable benefits, including:
How does Intuit Assist improve bookkeeping automation?
Intuit Assist enhances the QuickBooks platform by introducing a conversational interface that simplifies complex accounting tasks. It is integrated natively into eligible QuickBooks Online plans and requires no third-party installation. Once activated, Intuit Assist adapts to the business's accounting behavior, continuously learning from transactions to deliver more accurate recommendations over time.
This AI assistant is particularly effective for businesses that experience seasonal fluctuations, handle high volumes of invoices, or require rapid financial reporting. By eliminating the need for repetitive data entry and reducing manual errors, Intuit Assist enables finance teams to focus on strategic planning rather than operational bookkeeping.
What makes QuickBooks relevant to 2025 financial trends?
The surge in remote work, digital transactions, and cloud-based financial operations has intensified the need for intelligent accounting platforms. QuickBooks addresses this shift by offering bookkeeping automation that scales with business needs and remains compliant with regulatory standards. With tools that support both real-time decision-making and long-term financial planning, QuickBooks aligns with the broader movement toward AI-enhanced business operations.
Furthermore, the platform's performance has been independently recognized by Better Business Advice, which cited QuickBooks' automation capabilities and predictive features as key differentiators in a crowded market. This endorsement adds a layer of third-party validation to the Expert Consumers recognition, reinforcing the platform's credibility among financial professionals and business owners.
How can businesses access QuickBooks' AI-powered features?
QuickBooks offers flexible pricing plans that cater to businesses of different sizes. Access to Intuit Assist and the AI automation features is available through selected QuickBooks Online plans. Activation is completed within the platform's dashboard, and users are guided through a short setup process to personalize the AI experience based on their accounting needs.
QuickBooks does not require additional software installations or complex configurations. All AI functionalities, including invoice automation and reconciliation tools, are fully integrated into the core system, ensuring smooth adoption across organizations.
Conclusion
As businesses prioritize digital transformation and operational efficiency, bookkeeping automation tools have become essential. QuickBooks stands out in 2025 for its strategic use of artificial intelligence to deliver reliable, scalable, and actionable financial automation. The platform's recognition by Expert Consumers and validation from industry observers like Better Business Advice confirm its role in shaping the future of intelligent business finance.

AI startup Perplexity is raising more money at a $20 billion valuation
Perplexity is raising yet another round of funding, Business Insider has learned. The AI search engine is seeking a fresh fundraise at a $20 billion post-money valuation, according to an email sent to prospective investors seen by BI, and a source with knowledge of the raise. It's been a busy year for Perplexity, which has become one of AI's hottest startups with funding from investors including SoftBank, Nvidia, and Jeff Bezos. Perplexity just made a $34.5 billion bid for Google's Chrome browser earlier this week, and it's been contending with analysts urging Apple to buy the booming startup for months. The new valuation represents a $2 billion jump from Perplexity's most recent valuation of $18 billion in its latest fundraising round in July, as first reported by Bloomberg last month. That's up from a $520 million valuation in January 2024. All the while, Perplexity's business has been surging. The startup, which launched in 2022 to combine large-language models with web searches to provide real-time answers to user questions, boosted its annual recurring revenue above $150 million by the middle of 2025. That's more than quadruple its roughly $35 million in ARR a year ago, according to the email seen by BI. Perplexity head of communication Jesse Dwyer said Perplexity is currently doing more than $150 million in ARR. He didn't answer further questions for this story. Perplexity is facing fierce competition from Big Tech giants like Google — the startup announced its own AI-native browser Comet last month — alongside AI leaders like OpenAI, which is reportedly working on its own web browser. It's not clear who's set to lead the latest funding round. Perplexity has raised about $1.5 billion to date, according to PitchBook. The $20 billion valuation Perplexity is seeking, while a meaningful lift for the company, still doesn't come close to the $34.5 billion Perplexity offered this week to buy Chrome from Google. Google hasn't signaled any intent to sell the browser, despite facing pressure from the Department of Justice to divest Chrome over antitrust concerns. Perplexity told The Wall Street Journal it has received commitments from several investors, including large venture capital funds, to fund the transaction, though it didn't disclose the names of those investors. Many have dismissed the bid as little more than a marketing stunt. "It makes them seem like a big player and helps them with fundraising, talent, and user attention by staying in the news cycle," one VC, who is not an investor in Perplexity, said. Perplexity has also sidestepped rumors that it could make a deal with Apple as the iPhone maker falls behind in the AI race. Dan Ives, managing director and equity research analyst at Wedbush Securities, said acquiring Perplexity should be a "no-brainer deal" for the tech behemoth. "For Apple, time is ticking," he told BI. Dwyer said at the time that the team was "unaware of any M&A discussions that involve Perplexity."

Fed's Bostic Says He Still Expects One Interest-Rate Cut in 2025
Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta President Raphael Bostic said he continues to see one interest-rate cut as appropriate in 2025 if the labor market remains solid. 'For the rest of this year, I still have one cut on my outlook,' Bostic said Wednesday during an event in Red Bay, Alabama. 'That also is predicated on the notion that labor markets stay solid. If they weaken considerably, that balance of risks starts to look differently and the appropriate path will look different as well.'
