Light alternatives

Light combines a multi-entity ledger, payables, receivables, expenses and consolidation in one system, with AI agents handling routine work. The alternatives here cover narrower parts of that scope or, in one case, a full ERP. Decide first whether you are replacing your ERP or adding to it, then weigh multi-entity consolidation, self-hosting, API access and budget. Pricing is only listed for some options.
