The assistant who sees it through — from the invoice to the VAT return

Simbila issues your invoices and gets them paid, takes supplier documents from email, matches payments against your bank statement and prepares your VAT return and control statement.

She works with AI: reads your documents, matches payments, drafts invoices. You always confirm.

Simbila

Invoicing alongside you since 2011

You no longer retype incoming invoices

Three steps, and supplier documents collect themselves in one place.

  1. Give suppliers one address

    Hand your own Simbila address to your suppliers, or forward your billing mailbox to it.

  2. Simbila reads the document

    From a PDF or a photo it reads the supplier, the amounts, the dates and the payment reference. It looks the company up in the ARES register and creates it.

  3. You just confirm

    The invoice goes through approval, gets a payment date, and is matched against your bank once it is paid.

The extracted data sits next to a preview of the document, so you check it without switching windows.

Incoming invoices

Tell her in one sentence what to do with the mail

You do not write processing instructions as rules. You write them the way you would tell a colleague.

„From Alza always take the invoice attachment, not the delivery note. Ignore marketing email.“
Example of mail processing instructions

You always know where an invoice stands

  1. To review
  2. To approve
  3. Approved
  4. Scheduled
  5. Paid

Every invoice raises two separate questions, and Simbila keeps them apart: does the record match the document, and may this purchase be paid? Your accountant clears the data review while approval of the purchase waits for whoever ordered it. Paid is never set by hand — it is read from the payments.

AI capture

PDF, JPG, PNG and WEBP. When the reading is uncertain it says so — an invalid company number, an unreadable date, or line items that do not add up to the total.

Capture from your phone

On a phone, import opens the camera. Photograph the document and it is in the system.

Rules

Invoices under a set limit from verified suppliers approve themselves and go straight into the payment schedule.

Bank matching

Fio and Raiffeisenbank. Incoming payments are matched to invoices by the payment reference.

An AI assistant that does more than answer

Ask in a plain sentence — and when it needs doing, Simbila does it.

What Simbila connects to

Connections that already exist — none of this has to be built for you.

Payment gateways

  • GoPay
  • Comgate
  • Stripe
  • GP webpay

Your customer pays by card straight from the invoice. Payouts and gateway fees are pulled in and matched on their own.

Banks

Fio and Raiffeisenbank through their APIs, e-mail notices from seven Czech banks, and the ABO or GPC statement every Czech bank can export.

Accounting software

Pohoda XML, Money XML, ISDOC and Excel. The export follows your filter, not just the page you are looking at.

Registers

ARES fills in a company by its registration number or its name. VIES validates an EU VAT number for reverse charge.

AI clients

Our own MCP server. Add Simbila as a connector in Claude, ChatGPT or any other client and work with your invoices from there.

Sign-in

Sign in with Google — an account without a password too.

Your accountant gets data, not a box of paper

Handing over the documents is two clicks.

  • Pohoda XML
  • Money XML
  • ISDOC
  • Excel
  • Batch PDF
  • ARES
  • VIES

The export follows the filters set on the table. Pick a date range and you download exactly that month, not just the current page. The same buttons sit above both issued and incoming invoices.

  • Company details fill themselves in from the ARES register.
  • European VAT IDs are verified through VIES.
  • The activity log shows who changed what.

Doing the books for several companies? They fit on one screen

An accounting firm needs neither a separate edition nor a separate plan. The client simply invites you into their account.

Client overview

Every company you have been let into, in one table — each with how many documents wait to be checked, how many wait for approval and how many invoices are overdue. Click a number and you are in that list.

Shared inbox

The received invoices of all your clients in one list. Tick them across companies and mark the extracted data as checked in one click. Approving the purchase stays with the client.

A role, not full access

The client invites you as Accountant: you see and process documents, payments and VAT returns, but you do not touch their plan, their bank credentials or who else gets in. The Read only role can just view and export.

Export per client

One button downloads a ZIP with a separate Pohoda or Money XML file for each company number. Each file goes into that company's accounting software.

Each browser tab can hold a different client, so you do not switch between companies — you work in both at once.

What makes us different

Honestly, including where a cheaper tool is plenty.

Frequently asked

What people want to know before signing up.

Do I have to be VAT registered?

No. Simbila invoices both with and without VAT, including rates and rounding. For Czech VAT payers it also prepares the VAT return, control statement and EC sales list.

How do the documents reach my accountant?

A batch export to Pohoda XML, Money XML or Excel, and individual documents as ISDOC. The export follows your filters, so you can pick a single month.

How does receiving invoices by email work?

You get your own address, which you hand to suppliers or forward your billing mailbox to. Attachments become incoming invoices. In free text you describe what Simbila should do with the mail.

What does the AI cost?

The assistant and automatic capture are paid from AI credit that you top up as needed. You can turn on automatic top-up so it never runs out mid-processing.

Can I add colleagues or my accountant?

Yes. You invite users by email and pick their role: Owner may do everything, Accountant handles documents, payments and VAT returns but does not touch the plan, the bank credentials or the users, and Read only can just view and export. The activity log shows who did what in the account.

Does Simbila do quotes and orders?

Yes. Quotes and orders have their own numbering series, separate from invoices, so issuing one never leaves a gap in the tax-document numbering. Neither counts towards revenue or the VAT return. Once the client agrees, a quote becomes an order, and either turns into an invoice or a proforma in one click.

I keep the books for several companies. What does Simbila offer me?

Your clients invite you into their accounts as Accountant. You then get the Clients screen, showing how many documents wait at each of them, and the shared inbox, where the received invoices of all your clients sit in one list and can be marked as checked in bulk. The export downloads a ZIP with a separate Pohoda or Money XML file per company. No special plan is needed — each client account has its own.

Which banks do you support?

Every bank that can export a statement in the Czech ABO or GPC format. Fio and Raiffeisenbank connect directly through their APIs, and five more banks send notices by email. Simbila then offers each payment for matching at three levels of confidence.

Does Simbila prepare the VAT return?

For Czech VAT it does: from your issued and received invoices it builds the VAT return, the control statement and the EC sales list, and exports them as XML for the EPO portal. It also covers the OSS regime and warns about documents nobody has reviewed yet.

Does Simbila work on a phone?

Yes. The screens adapt to a narrow display, and you can install Simbila on your home screen so it starts from its own icon like an app. Nothing is downloaded from the App Store or Google Play.

Can customers pay online?

Yes — by card through GoPay, Comgate, Stripe or GP WebPay. The invoice also carries a QR payment, and PayMe generates a QR code for payment on the spot.

Can Simbila be connected to other systems?

Yes. There is a documented REST API, webhooks with signatures and a delivery log, and an MCP server that connects Simbila to Claude or ChatGPT.
