For business
Top 3 reasons you'll want to use Vali as a business
One system for the whole business
A small business runs accounting, invoicing, inventory, contacts and CRM off one login and one set of data — so nothing gets re-typed or lost between separate tools.
Built for South Africa
A South African chart of accounts, VAT and tax presets are ready from day one. Vali is cloud accounting software you reach online from any browser, POPIA-aware and hosted in South Africa.
Ask your books anything
Vali's AI answers in plain English from your live data, and reads receipts and bills straight into your accounts — so you spend less time on admin.
Common questions
Quick answers to what practices and businesses ask us most.
Still have a question?
Is Vali really all in one system?
Yes — for a small business, accounting, invoicing, inventory, products, CRM, contacts and HR share one system and one login, so nothing has to be re-typed between separate tools.
Do you handle South African VAT and tax?
Yes. New companies start with an SA tax preset, and VAT flows through invoices, bills and reports.
Can I work in foreign currencies?
Yes — Vali supports multi-currency transactions with period exchange rates and a dual-amount general ledger, plus realised and unrealised FX gain/loss reporting. Invoice overseas clients and track your forex exposure.
Are there limits on users or transactions?
No — a full Vali account has no limits on the number of users or transactions. Add your whole team and capture as much as your business needs.
What can Vali's AI do?
Vali's AI assistant answers questions about your books in plain English from your live data, and reads receipts and bills from a photo straight into your accounts — with more AI tools being added. See everything on the features page.
Is my data backed up, secure and reliable?
Yes. As cloud accounting software you reach online, Vali keeps your data encrypted and regularly backed up, hosted in South Africa, and the platform is built for high availability — we target 99.99% uptime.
Can Vali connect to other systems?
Vali offers API access for integrating with other tools. Tell us what you would like to connect on our feature request page.
Can I import my existing data?
We help you bring in opening balances, your chart of accounts, contacts and products during onboarding.
Is my data kept separate and POPIA-compliant?
Your information is kept separate from every other business on Vali — never mixed in a shared pool. POPIA-aware and hosted in South Africa.
