Meet JAX: Xero's AI Breakthrough for Small Businesses

Exciting news for businesses using Xero! 

Xero is launching Just Ask Xero (JAX)— an AI-powered smart assistant designed to simplify your accounting tasks. Whether you’re generating an invoice, editing a quote, or reviewing your cash flow, JAX can handle it all, no matter where you are.

What is JAX?

JAX is a conversational AI tool that will help you complete accounting tasks just by asking. It works through Xero as well as commonly used apps like mobile, WhatsApp, and email. 

Imagine being able to ask JAX to create an invoice or update a quote, all while you’re on the go. It’s as simple as sending a message!

What Does This Mean For You?

  • Save Time: JAX lets you handle tasks without needing to log into Xero—simply ask and it’s done.
  • Greater Accuracy: Powered by advanced technology, JAX ensures reliable results for critical accounting tasks.
  • Work Anywhere: Whether you’re in the office or on the move, JAX is accessible across devices, giving you the flexibility to manage your business wherever you are.

How JAX Stands Out

Unlike other AI tools, JAX uses Xero’s proprietary technology to ensure data accuracy and security. It delivers the right information for each task, making sure your accounting is precise— no room for guesswork. This technology ensures JAX only accesses the data you’ve authorised, keeping everything secure within Xero’s trusted platform.

What Else is Xero Doing with AI?

Beyond JAX, Xero is rolling out several other AI-powered features:

  • Faster Help: AI-generated answers in Xero Central reduce search times by 40%, helping you find what you need faster.
  • Simplified Onboarding: New users can benefit from an AI-guided setup, making it easier to start with Xero.
  • AI-Powered Content Summaries: Get quicker, more accurate answers inside the Xero platform.
