You fill in one short form and share access: read-only for your bank, cards and marketplaces, and a standard user seat in QuickBooks Online or Xero. We review your books for free and send a written quote before you commit. Then we bring any missing months current and close your books every month, with a named bookkeeper and a named reviewer.

Questions
Questions about getting started
How long does it take to get started?
The free books review comes back in 3 business days. Once you accept the quote, we send your access invitations, and your first monthly close follows on the normal schedule, by day 15.
Do I have to change my accounting software?
We work in QuickBooks Online or Xero, with A2X or Link My Books. Your quote says exactly what your setup needs.
What if I'm months behind?
Catch-up comes first. We bring the missing months current, priced per month behind, then your first close picks up from the last month we reconciled. See catch-up bookkeeping.
What do I need to do each month?
Keep the connections live and answer our questions when we send them. We reply within 24 hours on business days.
Who will I work with?
A named bookkeeper prepares your books and a named reviewer checks every close before it reaches you. Meet them on the about page.
Is there a contract?
Your written quote sets out the term and notice period before you sign anything.
