How Real Intelligence works

12 critical areas in expansion

This is what a CFO needs to have control over

Growth requires control. The checklist shows CFOs and leaders what needs to be in place within banking/KYC, VAT, e-invoicing, payroll and reporting before you take the next step.

Fast numbers you can trust

The finance function has never had access to more data. Automation, integrations and artificial intelligence process transactions faster. Reports are updated more often. Discrepancies are easier to find. But speed or AI alone does not give you control, and the most serious errors are not always visible at the time.

Gaps in, or a lack of understanding of, local requirements affect liquidity, reporting, pensions, sick pay and decisions far into the future. Real Intelligence removes those concerns. It means efficient technology, systems and processes combined with specialists in both the discipline and the industry you work in. In short, you get overview, control and a solid basis for decisions.

Frequently asked

Questions CFOs often ask

How does Amesto ensure data security and GDPR compliance?

We comply with Norwegian and European data protection legislation, with data processing agreements, access control and local storage in the Nordics for our Nordic customers. We have ISO certified payroll consultants and authorised personnel.

How long does a transition from our current provider take?

A structured onboarding plan ensures that switching accountants, or moving to an accountant, can happen mid-year without affecting deadlines or payroll runs.

How is your pricing structured?

Accounting from NOK 2,500/month, payroll from NOK 120 per employee per month. These are indicative prices, and the final price is agreed after a review of your needs and systems.

What is Real Intelligence in practice?

It is an innovation in which Amesto uses AI and automation to streamline systems and work processes, while experienced advisors are responsible for professional judgement, quality and follow-up. You get faster processes without losing the human understanding, and that is reassuring.

How is Amesto different from a pure system or AI provider?

Systems can process data and perform tasks faster. Amesto combines the systems with specialists who understand the regulations, but also your business and industry. They see the consequences behind the numbers and can give advice when the situation calls for judgement, not just a static PDF report.

Can you handle accounting and payroll in several Nordic countries?

Yes. We combine one shared delivery model with local experts who know the regulations and practice in each Nordic market. That means we deliver just as well in each individual country as across countries in one Nordic solution.

What happens if a discrepancy or an error occurs?

You have a dedicated team that follows up, assesses the consequences and makes sure the necessary safeguards and measures are put in place. At Amesto, responsibility is just as important as automation.

How do you make sure the transition from our current provider is safe?

We have long experience of onboarding new companies. We start with a structured review and draw up a concrete transition plan. The goal is that payroll runs, accounting, reporting and deadlines continue as normal while responsibility is transferred.

What does it cost?

The price depends on scope and needs, but here are the guidelines. Accounting starts from NOK 2,500 per month, annual accounts from NOK 8,800 per set of accounts, and payroll from NOK 120 per employee per month. System costs come in addition.

Because every business is different, we price our services individually based on size, complexity and which tasks you want to outsource. Not sure what suits you? Request a no-obligation quote, and we will find the right scope together, with no surprises along the way.

Who do you provide these services to?

Amesto has decades of experience supporting leading businesses. We provide accounting and payroll services to companies of all sizes, from start-ups to large groups, in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland. Whether you need ongoing bookkeeping, annual accounts, payroll or more strategic financial support, we tailor the solution to your business.
