Do you need to send reports in Scrum or is it too “waterfall-ish”?

Hi y’all!
I manage a team where we develop and maintain an online shop for a client. We use Scrum as a methodology but in addition to the usual ceremonies, the client wants regular written progress reports. It’s very tedious to collect stuff from several places in excel and then in confluence. I tried to automate it with Jira but with not much success. With my colleagues we decided to build something custom for this with prediktai.com but I am not sure it makes sense. Does anyone here have the same experience?
Thanks a bunch!
