Create invoices and expenses by talking to Lunnar

In the Aiden Startup app you can ask Lunnar, Aiden’s assistant, to make an invoice, log an expense or mark an invoice as paid by talking. Lunnar does it straight away, without asking you to confirm, so check afterwards what it has done.

How to talk to Lunnar

1. Open Lunnar in the app
2. Tap + and choose Talk by voice or Dictate; you can also tap the waveform button next to the text box. The first time, the app asks for permission to use the microphone
3. Say what you want in one sentence and stop talking. If it isn’t an instruction, Lunnar answers you in the chat

What it understands

• Invoice: “Invoice Laura Martin 300 euros for the logo design”. It creates it as a draft, in euros, with one line, 21% VAT and due in 30 days, unless you say otherwise. If the client doesn’t exist, it creates them without an email. If you don’t say the amount, it opens the invoice assistant with Tell me the amount to finish it
• Expense: “Log a 45 euro expense for software”. It records it with today’s date and a category. You’ll see Expense logged
• Paid, remind or resend: “Mark Laura’s invoice as paid”, “Remind Laura to pay me” or “Resend Laura’s invoice”. It acts on that client’s most recent unpaid invoice; if you don’t say the client, on the most recent of all
• Client: “Create the client Ruiz Workshops”
• Figures: how much you’ve invoiced and spent this month, your Stripe balance, an estimate of how much to set aside for Corporation Tax or when your Confirmation Statement is due

To send the invoice afterwards, follow how to create and send an invoice; for expenses, how to record and categorise your expenses. If something doesn’t work, write to us from Settings → Support → Contact support or at support@aiden.es.
