How it works

From Tally Prime to answers in five minutes

A small Windows app — the Tally2BI Bridge — sits next to Tally on your computer, keeps a private copy of your books and serves reports straight to your browser.

  1. 1

    Install the Tally2BI Bridge

    A small Windows app on the computer that runs Tally Prime. Five-minute setup, starts automatically with Windows.

  2. 2

    Connect Tally

    The Bridge reads Tally through its built-in local connection (port 9000) and keeps a private copy of your books on the same computer.

  3. 3

    Ask, explore, export

    Open tally2bi.com in your browser and ask questions in plain English, or open any of 25+ ready-made reports and dashboards.

  4. 4

    Stays up to date

    The Bridge re-syncs every few minutes while Tally is running, fetching only what changed since the last sync.

Before you start

What you need

  • A Windows 10 or 11 PC running Tally Prime
  • Tally's local connection switched on (port 9000)
  • A modern browser — Chrome, Edge or Firefox
  • An internet connection for sign-in and questions

Step-by-step setup on the Download page.

Security

Private by design, not by promise

Tally2BI was built so that your accounting data simply has no reason to leave your computer.

Local-only Bridge

The Bridge listens only on your own computer (127.0.0.1) and a Windows Firewall rule keeps it off the network.

No books in the cloud

Ledgers, vouchers and balances live in a private database on your PC. Our servers never receive them.

Questions only

When you ask in plain English, only the text of the question goes to tally2bi.com, which replies with the name of the report to open.

Paired devices

Each Bridge is paired to your account with a one-time code, and you can revoke a device at any time from Settings.

Encrypted in transit

Everything between your browser and tally2bi.com travels over HTTPS (TLS 1.2+).

Your account, your password

Sign-in uses Amazon Cognito with verified email and strong-password rules.

Your Tally, finally easy to read.
