Summary

Ryan Pearcy is joined by Eriona Bajrakurtaj from Majors Accountants and Ian Gregory, CTO of Advancetrack, for a week dominated by Intuit news, a quietly significant iplicit release and a pointed question about who controls your data as AI agents become the new interface for everything. iplicit's May 2026 release introduces AI Detect, real-time fraud and anomaly detection built into the core of the platform rather than bolted on. It flags unusual transactions, out-of-hours activity and VAT mismatches before they become problems. The same release adds 4-4-5 period support and extends AP automation with improved supplier matching and automatic VAT status flagging for non-registered legal entities. Intuit had a busy week. Eriona covers the May Accountant Suite feature drop, including proactive bank feed alerts, plain-English AI querying of live client data and a confirmed sunset date for QuickBooks Online Accountant in December. Ian picks up the Anthropic partnership, framing it less as an AI story and more as a distribution one: Intuit products are now available directly inside Claude. The panel debates whether that is a smart channel play or a quiet concession that the AI interface is winning. Eriona also covers Intuit for Education's UK launch, which kicked off with a financial literacy forum at the London Stadium with West Ham United Foundation. Only 26% of young adults in the UK say they received financial education at school. Ian covers Fivetran's Open Data Infrastructure benchmark, which names Workday, Rippling and Slack among the worst performers for data portability, and the panel debates whether regulation will eventually force openness the way open banking did. Also covered: Xero extends AI document extraction to bills with line-item capture and automatic reconciliation matching. A real-world example of Claude rebuilding a Sage invoice as a working Xero template in minutes. The NCSC's push for passkeys over passwords, and the operational headaches that creates. Ryan rounds off with Xero Small Business Insights showing sales holding firm across all five tracked markets despite the fuel crisis, with Australia leading at just under 11% growth.
