The global AI accounting software market hit $4.87B in 2024 growing at 39.6% CAGR, with 83% of accounting professionals now using AI tools. Zeni, Docyt, and Puzzle displace manual QuickBooks and Xero workflows with automated real-time financials — not replacing ledger infrastructure but eliminating the human labor layer above it. The net effect mirrors CRM and HR: fewer bookkeeping seats per company, with Big Four firms investing $9.5B in AI while shifting headcount toward advisory rather than execution.
