How it works

From shoebox to signed file, with you in control.

Datafocus does the extraction, coding and recomputation. You — or your accountant — make every judgment call. Nothing proceeds past a gate without a named human approving it.

Submit your documents

Bank statements, sales and purchase invoices, receipts, payroll, last year's signed accounts. Each document is registered, hashed and classified — duplicates rejected, nothing processed off the record.

Approve the trial balance

Every transaction is extracted with its source cited, coded into balanced double-entry journals, and rolled into a TB. Anything ambiguous becomes a numbered query — never a guess. You approve before anything moves.

Receive the complete file

Adjustments with authority, the extended TB, working papers — materiality, lead schedules, bank reconciliations, analytics — and MPERS statutory accounts. Then an independent engine re-checks every figure before sign-off.

Why Datafocus

Built backwards from one question: can you defend this file?

AI bookkeeping tools stop at the ledger. Audit add-ons assist inside someone else's spreadsheet. Datafocus produces the finished, defensible engagement file — and proves every number in it.

Maker–checker by architecture

The engine that prepares the accounts never reviews them. An independent tie-out engine re-derives every total from components — a stated number is an unproven claim until recomputed.

Every figure traceable

Journal → source document. Working paper → journal. Statement line → extended TB. The trail is hash-chained and append-only; any break is visible.

Human gates, enforced in code

TB, ETB and final sign-off require a named, qualified approver. An agent literally cannot approve — and any change after approval voids it automatically.

Local statutory output

MPERS & Companies Act 2016 accounts in the format Malaysian firms actually file, with full tax computation working papers. Singapore next.

The independent check

An engine that already catches what reviews miss.

Before any file is signed, the Datafocus review engine runs an eight-layer tie-out web across the output: casting, statement-to-statement loops, note ties, cross-document consistency, period-over-period. In validation against a real audited file it verified 32 ties — and when we planted a RM4,270 error of the exact class found in live engagements, it flagged it as Critical and refused to clear the file.

Casts & cross-casts

Every subtotal re-added, both directions.

The closed loop

SOCI → SOCE → SOFP → cash flow must reconcile, or the file does not clear.

Word ↔ Excel

Directors' report, statements and schedules must agree across documents.

A verdict, not a vibe

Cleared or not cleared — findings located, severity-rated, partner-ready.

Who it's for

Two tiers, one spine.

Malaysia's audit exemption is widening through 2027 while e-invoicing digitizes every SME's paperwork. Both tiers run the same gated pipeline.

Questions we expect

Asked and answered.

Is this an audit? Does it give an opinion?

No. Datafocus is a preparation and review aid. It performs no assurance and gives no true-and-fair opinion — a qualified human on the firm's sign-off hierarchy approves every gate and signs the file. Where a statutory audit is required, the registered auditor's procedures and opinion remain theirs; Datafocus builds and checks the supporting file.

What happens to our documents?

Engagement documents are hashed at intake, encrypted at rest, access-logged, and never used to train anything or seed demonstrations. Everything on this website's demo pages is synthetic. The free try-it tool processes your file entirely in your browser — it never reaches our servers at all.

What if the AI gets a number wrong?

The design assumes it can. That's why figures are never guessed (ambiguity becomes a written query), why every figure carries its source citation, why a human approves the TB and ETB before anything is built on them, and why an independent engine re-derives every total in the final accounts before sign-off.

Which frameworks are supported?

Malaysia first: MPERS and the Companies Act 2016, including the working-paper and tax-computation conventions local firms use. Singapore (SFRS for Small Entities) is next on the roadmap. Tax computations are prepared for review by a licensed tax agent — Datafocus prepares, it does not file.
