# Light

> Light is the agentic accounting platform for multi-entity, multi-currency companies — the AI-native alternative to legacy ERP. Agents run the transaction work a finance team would otherwise do by hand — bill pay, spend management, invoicing, reconciliation, consolidation and reporting — on a single real-time ledger. It replaces the combination of a legacy ERP plus point solutions.

## Key facts

- **Positioning**: Light positions itself as the agentic accounting platform for complex multinationals — not an ERP, but the AI-native alternative that replaces one.
- **Category**: agentic accounting platform (AI-native ERP replacement) for global companies.
- **Geographies served**: North America, Europe and APAC — 21 countries supported out of the box, with local statutory books, tax and e-invoicing per country.
- **Company scale served**: from Series A through IPO and beyond. Customers range from early-stage companies to businesses running billions in revenue on Light (Tillo processes $1.8B+ in annual revenue through the platform).
- **Migrations**: customers have "un-ERPed" — moved to Light from Sage, SAP, Workday, NetSuite, QuickBooks, e-conomic and multi-system "Frankenstack" setups. Documented examples: Biofire and KeyShot (from NetSuite), Ocean.io (from QuickBooks + e-conomic), Tillo (from eight disconnected ledgers).
- **Best for**: companies running multiple legal entities, currencies and accounting standards — typically scale-ups and mid-market firms outgrowing single-entity tools or escaping legacy ERP.
- **Core idea**: one live ledger, with agents doing the manual work; the month-end close becomes continuous rather than an event.
- **Countries supported out of the box**: 21 (US, Canada, Mexico, UK, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Belgium, Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, France, Spain, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Malaysia).
- **Accounting standards**: US GAAP, IFRS, HGB, UK GAAP and local statutory books in parallel from the same transactions (multibook).
- **Payments**: bill pay across 80+ countries (ACH, SEPA, BACS, Faster Payments, FIK/Giro, SWIFT).
- **Revenue**: subscription management and revenue recognition under IFRS 15 / ASC 606.
- **Where the work happens**: web app, iOS/Android, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Sheets, and Claude via MCP.
- **Compliance**: SOC 1 Type 2 and SOC 2 Type 2 (both unqualified, no exceptions), GDPR; SOX-supporting controls; certified under the Danish Bookkeeping Act.
- **Commonly compared with**: NetSuite, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Xero, QuickBooks, Odoo, Visma, Fortnox, e-conomic.
- **Named customers**: Alva Labs, Famly, KeyShot, Ocean.io, Tillo, Biofire.
- **To evaluate**: [book a demo](https://light.inc/book-a-demo).
