About

Big-company accuracy
for small-company books.

Kakei (家計) is the Japanese word for managing the money that keeps a household running. KAKEI brings that same careful stewardship to small businesses — with AI doing the heavy lifting.

Mission

Turn bookkeeping time into business time.

Large companies have finance departments and expensive systems. Neighbourhood retailers, service firms and small workshops have an owner — or a very small team — sorting invoices and receipts between everything else.

KAKEI exists to take on that in-between work. Reading, sorting, matching, looking ahead: each step handled by AI that learns the way your business already works.

Values

Our three promises

正

Be accurate

There's no "roughly" with money. Every AI decision comes with its reasoning and a confidence score, so people can check it.

簡

Be simple

Screens anyone can use without an accounting degree. We'd rather remove a step than add a feature.

守

Be protective

Your financial data is yours. We never use it to train models for others, and we collect no more than we need.

Founder's message

Your books are your company's health check. But for most owners, they've become a chore to survive at the end of every month.

Small business owners carry sales, purchasing, hiring — and the books — on their own. They lay out receipts after closing time, unsure which category is right. They find out months later that an invoice was paid twice. They look at the bank balance and wonder whether next month's bills will clear.

We built KAKEI to give back that time and remove that worry. Our AI doesn't apply generic rules; it learns from each company's own past decisions, so it gets closer to "how we do things here" every month. The goal isn't to hand your finances to someone else. It's to let you look at your own numbers, any time, with calm confidence.
