Small business bookkeeping
Canadian small business bookkeeping and accounting tools
Everything a Canadian small business needs to keep clean books in one place: a chart of accounts suited to your province and business type, documents attached to the transactions they support, bank reconciliation, and reports your accountant can work from.
14-day free trial. No credit card required.
Set up in six guided steps
Business details, province, sales tax registrations, a starting chart of accounts, your first bank or credit card account and an opening accounting period. The chart of accounts is pre-filled for your jurisdiction and business type, and you stay free to adjust it.
Documents attached to the books
Receipts, bills and statements are stored privately and linked to the transaction they justify, so a review or an audit request does not turn into a search through email attachments.
- Private document storage scoped to your business only
- Duplicate detection before a bill is recorded twice
- Bank reconciliation with one-to-one and one-to-many matching
Reports and month-end close
Profit and loss, balance sheet, trial balance, general ledger and sales tax summaries, plus a month-end checklist. Closing a period locks it, so historical figures stop moving under your accountant.
Human-in-the-loop review, always
Extracted fields and suggested categories are proposals, not postings. Nothing reaches the ledger until a person approves it, and every approval is recorded with who changed what, before and after, and why.
- Low-confidence documents are routed to a review queue instead of being posted
- Possible duplicates are flagged before they can be approved twice
- Closed accounting periods reject new entries; corrections are posted as reversals
Frequently asked questions
Does it work for a sole proprietor as well as a corporation?
Yes. Sole proprietorships, partnerships and corporations are supported, and the starting chart of accounts is adapted to the type you select during setup.
Can my bookkeeper or accountant work in the same file?
Yes. A business file supports multiple members with distinct roles, and every change is attributed to the person who made it.
What does it cost?
Plans start at $14.95 CAD per month, with annual billing available. Every plan begins with a free trial that does not require a card.
