FreshBooks AI Integration

Block 4 · FAQ

FreshBooks — questions

Can Bonfire automate FreshBooks?

Yes. Bonfire runs on your machine, holds your FreshBooks credentials locally, and a connected model (Claude, GPT, Gemini or Grok) drives the FreshBooks API to run the actions you ask for in chat.

Does my FreshBooks data go to the cloud?

Bonfire runs on your desktop and keeps your keys local — it isn't a SaaS holding your data. Only the specific request you approve is sent to your chosen AI model.

Which AI models can I use?

Any connected model — Claude, GPT, Gemini or Grok. A fully offline Llama model runs locally for private reasoning but can't reach live APIs.
