Imagine hovering over a product in your web shop and instantly exploring its variants, no clicks, no page loads.
Or reconciling accounts in seconds because AI already suggested the right ledger.
Or sending an invoice that not only adapts its layout on the fly but also checks if your customer is already registered on the global e-invoicing network, then delivers it instantly, free of charge.
Or managing payroll, project tasks, and even CO₂ emissions, all in the same system, with AI as your quiet assistant at every step.

That’s not the future. That’s Odoo 19.

This release is not just an upgrade, it’s a massive shift in speed, intelligence, and scope:

• AI woven into every workflow (from CRM replies to ESG data reporting).
• 15 million records loading instantly, even on slow connections.
• Global e-invoicing compliance in 58 countries, with PEPPOL activation in one click.
• A built-in Odoo Credit Card to manage employee spending and sync expenses.
• Sustainability reporting for €20/month when others charge 25x more.

And that’s just scratching the surface. Let’s dive into every module and see why V19 is the new era of Odoo.

Let’s break down the innovations module by module.
