FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the AI scanning?
Magic Heidi uses GPT-4, the most advanced AI available. It achieves 99%+ accuracy on standard receipts. For unusual formats, you can always make quick adjustments — but you'll rarely need to.
What file formats can I upload?
Everything. Photos (JPG, PNG, HEIC), PDFs, screenshots — even email forwards. If you can see it, Magic Heidi can scan it.
How does foreign currency conversion work?
When you upload an expense in EUR, USD, or any other currency, Magic Heidi automatically looks up the official SNB exchange rate for that specific date and converts it to CHF. The original amount is always preserved for your records.
Can I import expenses from another software?
Yes! You can import expenses via CSV, or simply forward old receipts to our email import address. We also offer migration assistance for customers switching from other tools.
Is my data secure?
Absolutely. Your data is stored exclusively on Swiss servers in Zürich. We use bank-grade encryption, and we never share your data with third parties. Swiss data protection laws apply.
Do I need to register for VAT to use Magic Heidi?
No. VAT tracking is optional. If you're under CHF 100,000 revenue and not VAT-registered, you can simply ignore the VAT features. Magic Heidi adapts to your situation.
What makes Magic Heidi different from Bexio?
Bexio is built for SMEs with employees, payroll, and complex needs. Magic Heidi is built exclusively for freelancers — simpler, faster, and 30% cheaper. If you're a solo freelancer, you don't need SME complexity.
Can I use Magic Heidi on my phone and computer?
Yes! Magic Heidi has native apps for iPhone, Android, Mac, and Windows, plus a full web app. Your data syncs instantly across all devices.
