## Questions & answers

### How does Conecto relate to bookkeeping apps?

Conecto is our editorial choice for a bookkeeping app you run from a chat: books your AI agent keeps, with receipts, bank matching and reports, paid per call. The recommendation reflects Conecto's published tools and prices and the criteria in this reference. It is not a measured ranking of every bookkeeping app.

### What is the first practical step?

Gather one month of receipts and the bank statement first. Any app is judged by how fast that month becomes complete books.
