Using simple prompts, customers can create custom agents on top of Xero and third party apps they use to turn time-consuming manual work into durable, scalable AI workflows with Xero as the orchestration hub and core financial operating system. And with domain-specific accounting and financial logic baked in, XeroForce is designed to support reliable AI-native small business finance and compliance workflows. Today\u2019s launch is in alpha, available to invite-only customers, with plans to bring XeroForce to general release later this year.<\/p><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260513863766\/en\/2803848\/5\/Xero_Wordmark_Blue.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260513863766\/en\/2803848\/22\/Xero_Wordmark_Blue.jpg\" \/><\/a><br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260513863766\/en\/2803848\/5\/Xero_Wordmark_Blue.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260513863766\/en\/2803848\/21\/Xero_Wordmark_Blue.jpg\" \/><\/a><p>\n\u201cXeroForce is uniquely built for end-to-end financial operations, combining decades of Xero\u2019s domain context, verified data, and AI innovation to help small businesses and accountants deploy agents that can automate financial workflows and deliver the visibility critical for compliance, all without code writing expertise,\u201d said Diya Jolly, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Xero. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to see what our customers create with XeroForce and to support them in unlocking the benefits of agentic workflows, so they can focus more on the strategic work only they can do.\u201d<\/p><p>\nCustom AI agents designed through XeroForce can be built in natural language, and used across Xero and a variety of third-party tools small businesses and accountants already use, connecting apps, actions, rules, and schedules into automated processes shaped for their firm, a specific client, or a specific industry. These agents also support always-on processes or workflows as businesses wait for events or actions, such as email replies or filing dates, completing tasks in the background over days or weeks. Other key features include:<\/p><ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\n<b>Purpose-built design:<\/b> XeroForce is designed from the ground up with logic specific to small business financial workflows \u2013 from month-end close and ongoing reporting to organizing tax documents, PO validation, payrun approval and more.<\/li>\n<li>\n<b>Audit trails: <\/b>Unlike generic AI platforms, every action is logged and traceable which is critical for compliance and client trust.<\/li>\n<li>\n<b>Bulk action across clients: <\/b>Many accountants and bookkeepers manage hundreds of clients and XeroForce enables workflows that operate at practice-wide scale, not one conversation at a time.<\/li>\n<li>\n<b>No technical expertise required: <\/b>XeroForce is designed so accountants and small businesses can deploy agents without writing code or crafting complex prompts.<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>\n\u201cWhat excites us about XeroForce is the potential. Being able to automate workflows across Xero and the apps we use everyday, tailored to how our practice works, is a game changer,\u201d said Ben Kurtz, Senior Accountant at Nortons Business Advisors. \u201cWe can see how this will free up the time we currently spend on manual processing to let us focus on what matters most: advising our clients.\u201d<\/p><p>\nXeroForce is powered by <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.xero.com%2Fau%2Fnews-events%2Fxero-os-ai-native-operating-system%2F%3Futm_source%3Dpressrelease%26utm_medium%3Dpress%2520release%26utm_campaign%3Dxero-force&amp;esheet=54534917&amp;newsitemid=20260513863766&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Xero+OS&amp;index=2&amp;md5=4eeeedc172de61c8689d5069979dc211\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">Xero OS<\/a>, the AI-native financial operating system for small businesses and accountants in the agentic era.
