Company profile
researched Aug 2026Kick (kick.co) is an applied AI company that automates bookkeeping and accounting for entrepreneurs and the firms that serve them. Its product is described as an "agentic ledger": transactions are categorized in real time and reviewed by an expert for accuracy, with rules that users can adapt to their own business and circumstances. The system is designed to surface commonly missed deductions such as home office, vehicle and travel expenses, and to separate business expenses that are mixed into a business owner's personal accounts (software and subscriptions, meals, travel, home office).
Beyond categorization, Kick provides revenue insight tools (custom revenue lines showing where income comes from each month), monthly vendor breakdowns for spend monitoring, and support for tracking an unlimited number of accounts and entities. Accountant-facing functionality includes a general ledger with multi-entity journal entries, automatic handling of intercompany receivables, payables and transfers, and tax-ready Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet outputs that can be shared with an accountant. The company positions the software as running in the background to handle work the user does not want to do while keeping the user in control.
Kick states that it is bringing together the AI and accounting industries to automate finances for millions of business owners, and that its team blends AI and accounting domain expertise. The About page lists 14 team members across product, engineering, growth, operations, AI and design, led by founder Conrad Wadowski.
