Light vs Digits

Digits is an AI-native general ledger for business owners and accountants: bookkeeping that categorises and reconciles continuously, accrual schedules, an agentic month-end close for firms, bill pay by ACH and cheque, and invoicing, for US-based entities. Light is the agentic ERP for the international group: one ledger for every entity and currency, with AP, AR, corporate cards, vendor payments on local rails in 80+ countries and consolidation in the same system.
