We're Building The AI Co-Worker For Accountants.
Tofu handles data entry, documents, and coding so accountants can focus on clients.

Powering Workflows Across the Globe
Today, Tofu supports accounting firms across 30+ countries in 200+ languages, including 7 of the top 10 global networks.
With a 5-star Xero App Store rating and recognition as a Global Emerging App finalist, the platform delivers measurable time savings for teams who want less data entry and more client work.

We Started With a Question That Didn't Make Sense
Brilliant people (CPAs, accountants, bookkeepers) spending 30-40% of their day manually entering invoices.
Typing data that already existed somewhere else.
This is waste. And it shouldn't exist.
So we built Tofu with accountants. Every feature came from asking one question: "What's the most painful part of your work?"
The answer was always the same: data entry.


AI Should Help Accountants, Not Replace Them
Finance is high-stakes and the liability is real.
AI hallucinations are unacceptable when you're signing off on books. We don’t believe AI replaces accountants. The technology isn’t there, and the trust isn’t either.
What AI can do is handle the grunt work so accountants can focus on reviewing, approving, and strategic work. Think of it as 10 digital interns doing all the prep.
Power tools don’t replace craftsmanship, they amplify it.
The best technology disappears into the workflow. AI should feel the same, just smoother.
That’s what we’re building.
The $20B Market Legacy Players Forgot
Legacy bookkeeping tools were built for English-speaking Western markets (US, UK, AU).
The fastest-growing bookkeeping markets today are in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America.
These are markets where:
No native bank feeds
Invoices arrive in 200+ languages
Handwritten receipts are normal
Firms grow 2–3× faster
Legacy tools don’t work
Global bookkeeping actually happens through hubs in Malaysia, the Philippines, India, Singapore, UAE, and Hong Kong.
We didn't build for the markets that already had options. We built for the markets that had none.

Built by People Who Understand The Problem
Our team blends finance expertise with modern product and AI engineering.

Saman Herath
Former BCG consultant and Global Lead at ExaWizards (Series A → IPO at $1bn on the Tokyo Stock Exchange).
Born and raised in Tokyo, bilingual Japanese/English with Filipino-Sri Lankan heritage.

Koki Fujiwara
Former CTO at ExaWizards China, where he led engineering teams building AI products across Japan and China. UBC graduate with deep expertise in machine learning and product development.
Koki leads Tofu's engineering team with a clear philosophy: AI is a tool, like git or a database. Meant to support the work, not become the work.

Cristina Michelini
PhD from Hong Kong Polytechnic University, with 5+ years leading customer success at high-growth startups including Easyship, ipaymy, and BridgeU across APAC and MENA markets.
At Tofu, Cristina pioneered the "Product Success" model which merges product and customer success into one team. The people building the roadmap are the same people talking to customers. No more "let me check with engineering."

Jay Sen Lon
Over a decade of hands-on accounting and bookkeeping experience before transitioning to sales leadership. Former Director of Business Development at BoardRoom Group, where he was recognized as top performer and secured the largest accounting clientele in APAC.
Jay brings something rare to software sales: he's lived the pain. Late nights reconciling vendor statements. Wrestling with multi-page invoices. He knows exactly what accounting teams go through because he's been there.
