Frequently asked questions about GeniusCount

GeniusCount is a Swiss online accounting software (Swiss Made Software) for accounting firms, SMEs and the self-employed. It centralises accounting, invoicing, payroll and taxation, with an AI agent that automates data entry from bank statements and supporting documents.

GeniusCount is aimed primarily at Swiss accounting firms that manage the books of several mandates, as well as SMEs and self-employed professionals who want to keep their accounts online. The platform is designed for the Swiss context: multi-mandate management, VAT and Swissdec-certified payroll.

GeniusCount offers two price lists. For accounting firms: from CHF 9.90 per mandate per month (accounting, invoicing and payroll included), with a minimum of CHF 200 per month. For companies that keep their own accounts: Business at CHF 60 per month or CHF 600 per year, Business Plus at CHF 90 per month or CHF 900 per year, and a tailor-made Enterprise plan. Paying annually amounts to two months free. The GeniusCount AI agent and the AI connectors are included in all plans.

It is the same platform, with two price lists. The accounting firm offer is a wholesale rate billed per mandate (from CHF 9.90), intended for practices that manage the accounts of dozens of clients; the AI agent and the AI connectors are options there. The company offer is a monthly or annual plan (from CHF 60 per month, or CHF 600 per year) and is aimed at a company that keeps its own accounts: the AI agent and the AI connectors are built in as standard, which explains the gap with the CHF 200 minimum on the accounting firm side.
