Vinyl

Vinyl connects to Anchor to turn your client meetings into draft proposals, matched to your services and pricing.

Written by Anchor Team

Vinyl is an AI meeting assistant for accounting and bookkeeping teams. Once connected to Anchor, Vinyl can turn a client meeting into a draft proposal in Anchor, using the services and prices already in your Anchor library.

Vinyl only creates drafts. You review and send every proposal from Anchor.

Before you start

  • Your firm's Master Admin in Vinyl needs to turn on Proposals under Settings → Firm → AI permissions. This applies to the whole firm.

  • Vinyl works with one proposal tool at a time. If another one is connected, disconnect it first.

  • Each team member connects their own Anchor account.

Connect with Vinyl

  1. Open Integrations in Vinyl

    Go to app.usevinyl.com, open Integrations and find Anchor:
    ​
    ​


    ​

  2. Click Connect

  3. Sign in to Anchor

    If you belong to more than one business, pick the one to connect.

  4. Click Allow

    You're sent back to Vinyl, where Anchor shows as connected.

What happens after a meeting

  • Vinyl picks up the services the client asked about during the call.

  • It finds the client in Anchor. If there is no match, it offers to create the client, and you approve first.

  • It matches the services to your Anchor services and pricing. If a service is not in your Anchor library, Vinyl names it so you can add it in Anchor.

  • It writes a short proposal intro and shows you a review. Once you approve, the draft is created in Anchor.

  • Open the draft in Anchor to finish and send it.
