CassKai vs Tiime: full platform or OCR-focused mobile app?

Tiime has won over French micro-businesses with its polished mobile app and receipt OCR. CassKai goes further: 4 native accounting standards, integrated ERP modules, French-speaking Africa coverage, and an AI assistant. Let us see where the shift happens.

Overview

Tiime (formerly iPaidThat) is a French solution well-known for the quality of its mobile experience. Its iOS and Android app, receipt OCR, and bank connection make it a favorite among French micro-businesses and freelancers. Tiime also offers optional modules (invoicing, pro account management, etc.) and an accounting brick (Tiime Compta) starting from around 14.90 EUR/month.

CassKai is not limited to receipt capture. It is a complete SaaS business management platform with multi-standard accounting (PCG, SYSCOHADA, IFRS, SCF), CRM, inventory, HR, projects, banking, and consolidation. CassKai targets structured SMEs in France and French-speaking Africa, where Tiime remains focused on French micro-businesses with an accounting and banking scope.

This comparison helps you choose: stay agile with the Tiime mobile app for a French micro-activity, or move to a complete platform like CassKai when your company is structuring.

Migration Guide

Migrate from Tiime to CassKai in 4 steps

  1. Export your Tiime data: From your Tiime workspace, export your general ledger, journal entries (FEC format if available or CSV), issued invoices as PDF, photographed receipts via OCR, and your customer/supplier database.
  2. Create your CassKai account and set up your company: Sign up at casskai.app (30-day trial, no credit card). Enter your company ID, currency, select the accounting standard (French PCG by default, add SYSCOHADA, IFRS, or SCF if needed), and configure your fiscal year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does CassKai have a mobile app as polished as Tiime?

CassKai has an iOS and Android mobile app covering the essential on-the-go use cases: receipt OCR capture, KPI viewing, approvals, cash flow tracking, and notifications. Tiime's app has historically been very well-regarded for its mobile ergonomics. If 100% mobile use is central for you, Tiime keeps an experience edge. If you need much broader functional coverage across desktop AND mobile, CassKai is more complete.

Can I use CassKai if I am based in Ivory Coast or Sénégal?

Yes, and this is actually one of CassKai's unique strengths. The platform natively supports SYSCOHADA (17 OHADA countries including Ivory Coast, Bénin, Sénégal, Burkina Faso, Togo, Mali, Niger), the DSF, multi-currency (FCFA, EUR, USD, DZD), and UEMOA standardized invoicing (FNE Ivory Coast, MECeF Bénin, SECeF Niger and others). Tiime only supports French PCG and the euro.

Tiime is cheaper to start with, why choose CassKai?

The apparent gap at entry closes quickly once modules stack up. Tiime works a la carte (pro account + Tiime Compta + invoicing + advanced OCR...), which adds up on the monthly bill for an active founder. CassKai Starter at 19 EUR/month already includes accounting, invoicing, contacts management, multi-currency, 4 accounting standards, and unlimited users. At equivalent scope, CassKai is often more economical and far broader functionally.

How does receipt OCR work in CassKai?

CassKai integrates an OCR engine (Tesseract and dedicated APIs depending on the case) to automatically extract information from your receipts and supplier invoices: net amount, VAT, date, supplier, document number. The processing feeds directly into your expense reports, journal entries, or bank reconciliations. Everything is coupled with the AI assistant that automatically categorizes expenses into the right account.

Can I keep my Tiime pro account and use CassKai for accounting?

Yes. CassKai connects to your bank via Bridge, regardless of the bank (including a Tiime pro account or any other neobank). Your transactions are imported automatically and reconciled. You can therefore keep your current pro account and benefit from CassKai's accounting, CRM, inventory, HR, and projects features in parallel, without switching banks.

Does CassKai handle PPF e-invoicing like Tiime?

Yes, and goes further. CassKai supports French e-invoicing via PPF and accredited platforms, with the 3 standardized formats (Factur-X, UBL 2.1, CII) and B2C/international e-reporting. It also covers the EN 16931 standard with its 157 validation rules. Internationally, CassKai additionally supports Peppol (EU), national formats of several European countries, and UEMOA standardized invoicing (FNE, MECeF, SECeF) — a scope Tiime does not cover.
