Why an all-in-one tool for France?

Financial management in France has a peculiarity that few international tools understand: regulatory complexity. Between LMNP regime specificities, tax forms unique to the French system (2031, 2042-C-PRO, liasse fiscale), mandatory legal mentions on invoices, and depreciation rules specific to French law, an entrepreneur combining freelance work and rental investment finds themselves navigating a regulatory ecosystem that few international platforms master.

This observation gave birth to Penry: a platform designed from the ground up for the French context, while offering a bilingual French-English interface for expats.

Who is it for?

Penry addresses four main profiles:

LMNP/LMP property owners with 1 to 50+ properties, whether short-term (Airbnb, Booking.com) or long-term rentals. Property tracking, receipt generation, housing certificates, leases compliant with Loi Alur, and depreciation calculations are built in natively.

Freelancers and auto-entrepreneurs invoicing in France and internationally. Multi-language invoicing (FR, EN, ES, DE), multi-country VAT management, and quotes with automatic invoice conversion cover essential needs.

Expats managing income in France from abroad. The bilingual interface and automatic generation of French tax forms from English-entered data address a need that few tools serve.

Multi-activity professionals combining rental, freelance business, and investment. This is the profile least served by existing tools, and the one for which Penry creates the most value.

The six pillars

1. Complete rental management

Short and long-term property tracking, bulk automatic receipts, one-click housing and tax certificates, compliant leases, move-in/move-out inspections — the entire rental cycle is covered.

2. Professional invoicing

Multi-language invoices with automatic French legal mentions, quotes with one-click conversion, compliant sequential numbering, multi-country VAT, and automatically calculated late payment penalties.

3. Simplified accounting

150+ pre-configured French tax categories, automatic bank reconciliation, receipt scanning with OCR, real-time revenue/expense dashboard.

4. AI documents

AI-assisted generation of contracts, NDAs, furnished leases, and administrative letters, with French law compliance built in.

5. Tax export

Forms 2031 (BIC), 2042-C-PRO, liasse fiscale (2065 for SCI, 2033 for SAS/SARL), category summaries — everything your accountant needs, pre-filled and ready for review.

6. Bank synchronization

Secure connection to your French bank, automatic transaction import, smart categorization, one-click reconciliation.
