What Ledger Shield does

📊 Live dashboard

Sales, margin, cash and bank balances, receivables and payables ageing, and your GST position — read straight from TallyPrime, so you see where the business stands without building reports by hand.

📑 Tally-style reports

Day Book, ledgers, trial balance, profit & loss and balance sheet in a familiar layout, with one-click Excel export for working papers and client packs.

🛡️ Masked AI access

A local MCP server lets AI apps such as Claude Desktop read your books. Names of individuals and proprietors become tokens like PERSON_0001, and PAN, Aadhaar, phone, e-mail, UPI IDs and bank account numbers are redacted before anything reaches the AI model.

🧾 Disclosure log

Ledger Shield records what was shared with AI apps in a disclosure log, and scan-transcripts checks saved AI conversations — so you can show what left your books and what didn't.

✍️ AI-prepared entries (Advanced)

Vouchers, GST invoices and masters prepared through AI are posted to TallyPrime only after a draft is shown to you and you confirm it.

📘 Tax audit working papers (Advanced)

Form 3CD working papers clause by clause, with an Excel workbook, plus GST tools: GST summary, GST invoices and item GST masters.

Your data stays on your computer

Ledger Shield runs entirely on your own Windows computer and talks to TallyPrime locally. Your Tally data never goes to Authentic Technologies — the app only contacts our server to activate and check your licence. AI features use the AI app you choose, on your own plan, and only ever receive masked data.

Ledger Shield is built with our best efforts to help you meet your obligations under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023: personal data in your books is masked before it reaches an AI model. It does not by itself make you DPDP compliant, and we don't guarantee any compliance outcome — compliance remains your responsibility as the data fiduciary.

Frequently asked questions

What is Ledger Shield for TallyPrime?

Ledger Shield is a Windows app from Authentic Technologies for CA firms and businesses that use TallyPrime. It shows a live dashboard and Tally-style reports with Excel export, and lets AI apps such as Claude read the books through a local MCP server that masks personal data first.

Does Ledger Shield send my Tally data to the cloud?

No. Ledger Shield runs on your own computer and reads TallyPrime locally, so your Tally data never goes to Authentic Technologies. When you use AI features, the AI app you connect receives only masked data: names of individuals and proprietors become tokens like PERSON_0001, and PAN, Aadhaar, phone, e-mail, UPI IDs and bank account numbers are redacted.

Does Ledger Shield make my firm DPDP compliant?

No software can do that on its own. Ledger Shield is built with our best efforts to help you meet your obligations under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023: personal data in your books is masked before it reaches an AI model. It does not by itself make you DPDP compliant, and we don't guarantee any compliance outcome — compliance remains your responsibility as the data fiduciary.

How much does Ledger Shield cost?

Ledger Shield is a yearly licence with three plans: Pro at ₹2,999 plus GST (1 machine, 2 Tally companies), Advanced at ₹8,999 plus GST (2 machines, 5 companies) and Team at ₹14,999 plus GST (5 machines, unlimited companies). The app includes a 3-day free trial.

Can Ledger Shield post entries into TallyPrime?

Yes, on the Advanced and Team plans. Vouchers, GST invoices and masters prepared through AI are shown to you as a draft and posted to TallyPrime only after you confirm. The Pro plan gives AI apps masked read access to the books.

What do I need to run Ledger Shield?

Ledger Shield needs Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit), TallyPrime with the XML server enabled on port 9000, and an internet connection once to activate the licence. AI features also need an AI app that supports MCP, such as Claude Desktop, on your own plan.
