Does Laxmi tell me what to do with my money?+
No. Laxmi reports what this workspace's own numbers say and stops there. It is Domain.FINANCIAL in the framework's registry, so investment, loan, insurance and tax advice are refused by the same gate every financial response passes through, and a test scans every route Laxmi declares to prove none of them can advise, transfer, remit, withdraw or send.
Can Laxmi move money for me?+
No. A payment link is created through a licensed payment gateway's own API, and the paid state comes back from that gateway's signed webhook — Laxmi never itself holds, moves or settles funds. The bill scheduler lets you mark a bill as scheduled for your own tracking; it never initiates a transfer.
Is the forecast a guarantee?+
No, and it says so on the screen every time it appears. It is a mechanical projection built from your own recorded invoices, bills and recurring templates, with every assumption it made listed alongside the number — including the fact that no bank feed is connected, so nothing outside this workspace's own records can be part of it.
Why does the budget still show spend that isn't confirmed?+
Because hiding it would let an incomplete month read as on track. The limit is checked against confirmed expenses, and the count and value of anything logged but not yet confirmed is reported right beside that total, not inside it and not omitted.
Will a reminder ever send itself?+
No. Laxmi drafts a factual reminder — invoice number, amount, days overdue — and an owner reviews and approves each one individually before it goes anywhere. There is no send route Laxmi controls unattended, the tone is checked before you ever see the draft, and even an owner's own added note is checked for language that drifts into advice or a threat.
Does Laxmi score my customers by how likely they are to pay?+
No. The customer payment-behaviour report shows average days to pay and how often invoices went overdue — factual history only. There is no score, rating or risk field anywhere in the response; that would edge into a regulated credit-assessment function Laxmi deliberately stays out of.
I already use Khata or Dena — do I need Laxmi too?+
All three touch money, and from outside it will not be obvious which to open first. This page will not pretend the line between them is cleaner than it is. Laxmi: Running the business day to day — what you're owed, what you owe, a forecast, a budget. This is operational cash flow, not the books themselves. Khata: The actual double-entry ledger, kept in a state your accountant can review. Khata does not replace your CA — it stops at handing the CA a reviewable pack. Dena: Read-only banking information pulled from your own accounts with your consent — statements, balances, a loan-readiness checklist. It cannot move money and is not a lender.
