“Can an AI-native accounting ERP built for hotels replace QuickBooks and the surrounding back-office stack?”
Founded 2016 in Silicon Valley as an AI bookkeeping automation platform for SMBs and accounting firms. By 2026 pivoted hard into vertical AI ERP for hospitality (hotels, franchises), positioning as a one-stack replacement for QuickBooks + bill-pay + BI. Recent moves emphasize a proprietary ledger ("Docyt's own ledger"), forward-deployed engineers, and an Accountant Copilot for accounting firms — a bet that vertical + AI + services is more defensible than horizontal SMB bookkeeping.
