Last night proved one thing loud and clear: accountants are more excited about AI than most people realize.

We hosted our Accountant Professionals Meetup in Jamaica, NY, bringing together nearly 20 accounting, tax, and finance professionals for the official launch of Tabby for Accountants, our new partner program built to help firms save time, increase efficiency, and modernize their bookkeeping operations through AI.

From the moment the doors opened at 5:00 PM, the energy in the room was electric. CPAs, EAs, bookkeepers, and firm owners from across New York gathered not just to network but to talk about where accounting is heading and how AI is already reshaping the industry.

Over coffee, snacks, and lively conversation, professionals shared how they’re navigating a world where automation, client expectations, and remote work are changing the game. It wasn’t a conference, it was a roundtable of peers sharing ideas, frustrations, and hopes for a smarter future.

The Big Reveal: Tabby for Accountants

Our team gave a live demo of Tabby’s AI-powered bookkeeping system, showing in real time how it can cut up to 80% of bookkeeping time for firms by automating transaction categorization, finding missed deductions, and preparing client books in a tax-ready format.

You could feel the shift in the room as accountants realized what this meant for them:

  • No more late nights cleaning up messy client books.
  • No more tedious categorization spreadsheets.
  • More time to focus on high-value advisory and tax planning.

By the end of the evening, 15+ accountants signed up on the spot to become Tabby Partners, joining the growing network of professionals embracing automation to scale their firms faster.

There was a common theme in every conversation: AI isn’t here to replace accountants; it’s here to empower them. Attendees shared how technology like Tabby gives firms the edge to handle more clients, deliver better accuracy, and stay competitive in an industry where margins are tightening.

One firm owner put it perfectly:

“If AI can handle the repetitive work, I can finally spend my time being an accountant again, not just a data cleaner.”

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who joined us for this milestone night. The food, conversations, and contagious enthusiasm made it clear that the accounting profession is ready for a new era, one where smart automation drives productivity, not fear.
