Podcast Episode Overview

Alicia and Dan examine all seven AI agents now appearing throughout QuickBooks Online, from the accounting agent that’s transforming bank feeds and reconciliation to the customer hub that’s building out CRM functionality. They test which features deliver genuine improvements versus which ones simply surface existing tools with new branding, sharing specific examples of where the AI surprises them with accuracy and where it still needs work. The discussion covers what’s available at each subscription level and practical tips for navigating the new interface while these agents continue to evolve.
