AWC · ABM Working Computer

The bookkeeping machine you don’t buy

The computer that takes over the routine. Control and signature stay in your firm.

We don't sell software or hardware, and we don't take the work away from your accountant. We put an Arvut computer on their desk: on it, ABM, our AI agents and your folders, updated every day. Nothing to learn. No external IT needed.

Owned by Arvut, works at your desk. Documents into the folder, «process» – bank, receipts and VAT come back prepared. The mandates stay yours.

01 · What a fiduciary really is

A fiduciary is not just software and accountants

  • Desks covered in binders. Inside the binders, dividers. Behind the dividers, paper.
  • Fragile Excel spreadsheets that only their author understands.
  • A basement archive holding ten years of paper.
  • External IT on call: expensive, slow, a different stranger every time.
  • Viruses and security that you are liable for.
  • An expensive office. Even though many would rather work from home.

All of this costs money, and none of it appears on the price list of any accounting software.

02 · What the AWC is

A workstation we bring fully set up, install, update and maintain

For your accountant, your CFO, the person who looks after receivables and payables. On it:

ABM and Vera

Books, receivables and payables ledgers, bank, documents. The assistant Vera answers from the books.

ABM Courier

Documents arrive by themselves from the client's computer.

Arvut AI agents

They work with files and folders right on this computer and with the books in ABM: post a bank statement, issue invoices, file documents, prepare the return.

Our image, our updates

The computer remains Arvut's property: we maintain it, update it and replace it when needed. Remotely, only with your consent; we do not see the screen or your accountant's work.

Skills and plugins

Updated practically every day, with no call to IT. What changes are the skills; accounting rules and VAT rates follow the law, not the version. Every version is kept, the previous one can be restored.

The data is not on it

Books and documents live in ABM, with copies in several independent places. An export of your books as a file, on first request, including if you leave.

Nothing to learn. No new software, no AI tools. No external specialists to bring in for setup and support. Everything is at hand, ABM does it all.

Responsibility stays where it belongs. A doubtful document is not posted by the system: it comes back with a question. Nothing goes into the return without your “Apply”.

99 %

Our goal: financial accounting, bookkeeping and the business back office without manual work. Today these run without the accountant's hand: bank, document filing, receivables and payables ledgers, QR-bills, VAT. What stays manual is control, doubtful documents and the signature: the part that requires your professional judgement. The full list: arvut.ch/automation.

03 · Three scenes from real life

We have seen all of this ourselves

Scene one

“Everything is automated here, we don't work with paper”

Two monitors on the accountant's desk: the payroll sheet on one, the accounting program on the other. The accountant reads the figures off one screen and types them into the other. They are modules of the same program. “Why not import?” – “You have to call the IT specialist. He's expensive. This way is cheaper.”

Scene two

The exchange rate

A clerk is already entering May's data. Then it turns out the IT specialist forgot to enter the new quarterly rate. Everything has to be re-entered.

Scene three

Reports for the owner

The CFO has prepared the reports. The owner brings more invoices, backdated. Every report is broken, everything has to be redone.

On the AWC these scenes don't happen. Data comes in automatically. The rate is fetched by itself, the official one, for the right date. A backdated invoice is posted by the system and the report is recalculated in seconds: reports are built from the books, not by hand in Excel.

04 · What the station gives you

Every morning the books reconcile with the bank. Everything else is built on that

  • Information updated every morning, for decisions and returns, not at the end of the month, quarter or year.
  • Invoices to clients with QR and under your logo, one at a time or in bulk. Within seconds.
  • Receivables and payables ledgers: what is open, what is overdue, what is coming up.
  • Journal, chart of accounts and interface in four languages at once: DE, FR, IT, EN. Everyone reads in their own.
  • A smart archive of digital documents: every document is attached to its entry; copies in several independent places.
  • Cash registers and banks, multi-currency.
  • Supplier payments straight from your computer: the e-banking file is ready, you approve.
  • Product and service catalogues, loaded from a file.
  • VAT as PDF and eCH-0217, and annual accounts straight from the books.
  • Any currency and any chart-of-accounts structure.
  • Migration from your current program: chart of accounts and balances are loaded from a file, the rest is carried over during the pilot. Your books can always be exported as a file.

And your clients can have what a fiduciary usually doesn't sell built on your mandate

Warehouse and inventory management · cash registers and POS · automatic reminders to debtors · ERP based on EspoCRM. Each item becomes a line in the contract.

What is automated today, what can be automated and what stays with people, on one page: arvut.ch/automation.

Binders and the basement archive are no longer working tools: the work is done with the digital copy attached to the entry. What must be kept in the original is decided by the law, not by habit.

05 · The office, if you want one

The office becomes a choice, not a necessity: with the AWC the accountant works wherever suits them, and the books reconcile every morning.

06 · How it goes

Three steps

We bring it for a day

We put the AWC next to your accountant and take one of your mandates in parallel with your books. Nothing changes for the client.

If yes, the computer stays

An hour of onboarding, ABM Courier for your clients, access under your brand.

Then ABM does the work

You check and sign under your own name. The mandates are yours, the brand is yours, you set the price for your client.

The station has no separate price. You pay by the tariff for fiduciaries — for entries that reconcile with the bank.

Or a single line in reply to our letter.
