Frequently asked questions
How much does Davere cost?
Davere works with one fixed price, and everything is included in it: extra hourly work, payslips above the agreed number, fetching and updating tax cards, Kela (social insurance) reports, processing invoices above the agreed number, interfaces and integrations, software and licence fees, financial statements, and tax returns and annual filings. As a price guide, the annual price is 0.7–1.8% of the company’s 12-month revenue. The larger the company, the lower the relative price. The division of work is taken into account: if you run payroll yourselves, for example, we do not charge for it. The price also depends on how variable the business is and on the type of company, for example a company that prepares a balance sheet or a startup. The exact price is agreed in the kick-off meeting.
Do you also serve sole traders or associations?
No. We serve limited companies only. Sole traders, general partnerships, limited partnerships, associations and foundations are outside the scope of our service.
Do we still pay for our current financial management software?
Software and licence fees are included in the price.
Can we keep our current systems?
Yes. You can keep using your own ERP, inventory, invoicing or other system. We have no closed list of supported systems. We build the connections and functionality needed for your existing systems, with no separate integration fee.
What if we run payroll ourselves?
Then payroll is not charged for. We only need the details of paid salaries for your financial administration.
Can AI do bookkeeping?
The routine work, yes. AI checks and compares all the material, which was not practically possible before. It is not flawless, but it learns: the expert corrects it and develops it along with your business. A person always verifies and signs off that the result is correct and compliant.
Who is responsible if the AI makes a mistake?
We are. An accounting firm is a kind of insurance in your dealings with the tax authority: we are responsible for the figures being correct and compliant. AI is a tool, but responsibility always lies with the named expert and Davere Oy. If an error gets through, we correct it at our own cost and also fix the process so that the same error does not repeat. We are backed by liability insurance of €1,000,000.
What if our expert is on holiday or changes?
The work does not stop. AI is never on holiday, sick or unreachable, and all information is in the system and does not leave with anyone. A named expert is always responsible for the result.
What happens in a tax audit?
Our expert handles the audit together with you. Because every entry, request and correction is recorded, the material and the reasoning are available immediately.
Are you an authorised accounting firm?
We have applied for authorisation, and the application is pending.
Does our data go to outside parties when we connect it to Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot?
Only what you ask, and only when you connect it yourself. The connection is off by default. You turn it on with your own AI account and can disconnect it at any time. The connection is read-only, so your AI assistant cannot change your accounts. It sees only what your user rights allow, and every query is logged. When you ask, the AI service receives the figures needed to form the answer, not your entire accounts. We recommend the business versions of these services, in which the provider does not use conversations to train models. Our own processing always stays within the EU.
Can we switch in the middle of a financial year?
Yes. Your previous accounting firm handles the accounts up to the agreed switch month, and we continue from there. We transfer the balances and the current financial year’s data, so the financial year continues without a break.
How quickly will we get an answer?
From the system you get an answer immediately, at any time of day. The expert answers by the next working day at the latest.
What is the notice period?
The notice period is three months.
Can we take our material with us if we leave?
Yes. We hand over all accounting material, vouchers and reports in a machine-readable format at no extra charge.
