Connect without a support ticket
An admin generates a one-time Telegram connection for each sender. The outlet follows it once; no beres staff need to provision the channel.
SQL Account invoice automation
A more flexible way to collect invoices for SQL Account.
SQL AI EasyScan is strong when everyone works through SQL Account and WhatsApp. beres is built for finance teams collecting documents from suppliers, outlets and branches: set it up yourself, give each sender a labelled Telegram route, and review everything in one browser workspace.

Where beres gives distributed teams more control
Both products can reduce manual key in. beres stands apart before the invoice reaches accounting: each branch can send immediately through its own identifiable channel while the finance team keeps collection and review centralised.
| Capability | beres | SQL AI EasyScan |
|---|---|---|
| Initial setup | Fully self-serve. Create the organisation, choose the SQL Account output, import or sync master data, and connect senders without waiting for beres staff. | SQL’s documented self-registration requires an admin to configure the OCR category and user mobile number, generate a sender link in SQL Account, and have the sender complete it within five minutes. The documentation does not say vendor assistance is required. |
| Document intake | Private document email for forwarded PDFs, plus linked Telegram chats for photos and files from staff, branches or outlets. | Registered WhatsApp sender or direct upload. |
| Branches and outlets | Give each outlet its own linked Telegram chat and label it with the branch or outlet name. Staff send documents from the phone they already carry; accounting can keep collection sources organised without giving every sender an accounting login. | Supports registered WhatsApp senders and multiple companies. SQL’s documentation describes switching the active company with a WhatsApp command; it does not describe admin-defined branch labels for sender channels. |
| Supported accounting flow | SQL Account eStream itemised entries and ARAP summarised entries. | Native SQL Account document types including sales invoice, purchase invoice and payment voucher. |
| Multi-page handling | Automatically groups pages it identifies as one multi-page document. Reviewers only merge or unmerge when the automatic decision needs correction. | Users can select files and group or ungroup them in EasyScan. |
| Accounting matching | Matches supplier, stock-item and GL codes against the organisation’s imported or synced master data, then remembers confirmed corrections. | Assigns document type, category and predefined account code; SQL states that it learns prior patterns. |
| Review | Dedicated browser workspace for batch review, with extracted data in the middle and the original document on the right before delivery. | Structured summary and matching SQL Account screen for review and confirmation. |
| Delivery choice | Choose an SQL Account import workbook or direct API push. The import route remains available when direct connectivity is not the right fit. | Creates and completes the entry inside SQL Account. |
| Current public price | Free for 10 documents/month; paid plans from RM 49/month. API push is included. | SQL’s page currently advertises unlimited OCR scans free through 31 December 2026. Confirm future pricing with SQL. |
These are alternatives, not connected products. beres does not integrate with SQL AI EasyScan. It provides its own collection, review and SQL Account delivery workflow.
One collection flow across every outlet
Label the source
Rename linked chats to useful operational labels such as “Bangsar outlet” or “Johor branch” instead of managing a list of unfamiliar personal accounts.
Send and keep working
Outlet staff send the PDF or photo immediately. The accounts team receives it in the same organisation workflow used for email invoices, ready for central review.
beres is the stronger fit when…
- You collect invoices from several outlets, branches or field staff
- You want every sender channel labelled and manageable by your own admin
- Supplier PDFs already arrive by email
- You want automatic multi-page grouping before review
- You need either eStream or ARAP output
- You want batch browser review and a choice of import file or API push
EasyScan may fit better when…
- Everyone already works inside SQL Account
- WhatsApp or direct upload is the preferred intake
- You want SQL’s native document-category workflow
- Its current promotional pricing and storage terms suit you
Compare the whole hand-off—not only OCR accuracy.
Test the same documents from the moment an outlet receives them. Count sender setup, forwarding, branch identification, page grouping, code correction, review and final delivery. That is where a collection-first workflow can remove work that OCR alone leaves behind.
