AI Assistant

AI ERP software that answers your business questions in plain English

No report menus, no filters, no exports. Ask Square Loop what you want to know and get a clear answer from your live business data in seconds.

Answers in seconds, not an afternoon

Every business owner has questions that should take seconds but take an afternoon: who is overdue, what is running low, whether the books balance. The answers already sit inside your ERP. Square Loop’s AI Assistant fetches them for you.

Type a question the way you would ask your accountant or storekeeper. The assistant reads the right report, works out the answer and explains it in plain language.

Safe by design

AI you can trust with your business data

Built for finance teams: controlled, permission-aware and powered by Claude, a large language model from Anthropic.

Read-only, always

The assistant can look things up, but it cannot create, change or delete anything in your system.

Respects every permission

It only sees what the person asking is allowed to see. A salesperson without access to financial reports gets no financial answers.

No direct database access

The AI never sees your database. It reads only Square Loop's approved reports, and each request is checked against the user's permissions before it runs.

Switch it on or off

The AI Assistant is a company-level setting that your administrator controls.
