Bookkeeping.
Automatic transaction classification, receipt parsing, monthly reconciliation, and audit-ready reports — for small businesses that would rather build the business than keep the books. Self-hosted by default; data processing depends on your chosen integrations.
Bookkeeping is one of those problems that everyone has and no one wants. It is too boring to staff senior, too important to staff junior, and too expensive to outsource by the hour. The result, almost universally, is a backlog that gets worse every month. We built Bookkeeping for our own studio first — we needed the books clean every Friday and we refused to spend a day a week on it. It became a product after every client we showed it to asked when they could buy it. It is opinionated, fast, and unapologetic about replacing the parts of accounting that should never have required a human.
Automatic transaction classification
Transactions are automatically categorised and matched to your chart of accounts, typically within seconds. The classifier adapts to your vendor names and categories; results should be reviewed for your business.
Receipt + invoice parsing
Forward an email, drop a PDF, snap a photo of a receipt — the system extracts vendor, amount, currency, tax, line items, and attaches them to the matching transaction. No more "I think this was at the Walgreens on Pico".
Monthly reconciliation, automated
At month-end the system reconciles every account, flags the handful of items that need human review, and produces a clean P&L, balance sheet, and cash-flow statement. Your accountant reviews the results; review time depends on the complexity of your books.
Compliance-ready audit trail
Every classification, every change, every override is logged with who-did-what-when. Helps prepare for an audit without rebuilding the year from receipts.
Tax-jurisdiction aware
Supports tax handling for your configured jurisdictions, including sales tax, VAT and GST. Coverage depends on your setup; your accountant should review tax treatment and reports.
Native integrations
Plaid for banking, Stripe / Square for revenue, QuickBooks and Xero for downstream sync. Or, if you would rather, the system can run on your infrastructure; external data sharing depends on the integrations you enable.
