More firms now use AI assistants and bots for real client work like bookkeeping prep, payroll checks, and report drafting. That time is a real cost of serving each client, but right now the only way to track it in Financial Cents is to add the bot as a full team member at $89/month.

I'd love an "AI assistant" or "non-human" member type that:

~ Costs nothing or much less than a full seat, since it doesn't need its own login to the app

~ Can log time entries against clients, projects, and tasks, with its own cost rate

~ Is non-billable by default, with an option to bill at a separate disclosed rate

~ Shows up in time reports and profitability separately from staff hours, so I can see AI hours and cost per client next to my own time

This would help firms price value-billed clients, decide fair hourly rates, and stay transparent with clients about AI-assisted work as this becomes standard practice.
