AI Tools
Everything you can ask Lejr's AI to do, tool by tool: what each one does, what to say, and whether it changes your books.
These are the tools behind Lejr's conversational accounting. The Lejr Assistant uses them, and so does Claude, ChatGPT or Grok when you connect it to your books. You never call a tool by name: ask in your own words and the AI picks the right one.
Tools that only look things up run straight away. Tools that change your books show you what they will do and wait for your approval, unless you allow them in Settings → Assistant → Permissions. Irreversible ones, such as voiding or closing a year, always ask.
