The essential accounting features. Deliberately nothing more.

Everything below ships in the app today and runs entirely on your computer. Simplicity is the point — if a feature isn't listed here, we don't claim it.

BANK ACCOUNTS

Unlimited accounts, live balances

  • Chequing, savings and credit card accounts
  • Opening balance and date — start your books mid-year
  • Current balance always calculated live, never stale
  • Archive and restore accounts without losing history
IMPORTS

Bank imports that just work

  • CSV, OFX and QBO — format detected automatically
  • Canadian and US date formats both handled
  • Duplicate detection: re-import a statement without doubling rows
  • Or enter transactions manually, no file needed
TRANSACTIONS

Fast to categorize, hard to lose

  • Assign categories inline, straight from the list
  • Colour-coded categories for fast visual scanning
  • Split one bank line across several categories
  • Deletion is reversible — archive and restore instead
RECEIPTS

Audit-ready receipts

  • Attach PDF, JPG or PNG to any transaction
  • Copied into your company folder, filed by year and month
  • Reports flag which expenses carry a receipt
  • Opens in your system's default viewer
INVOICING

Professional invoices, automatic numbering

  • Unlimited line items, from your catalogue or freehand
  • Sequential numbering per fiscal year (INV-FY2026-001)
  • Overdue status applied automatically
  • PDF export with taxes broken out the way the CRA expects
  • Payment matching: bank deposits paired to invoices in one click
CANADIAN TAX

All 13 provinces and territories, pre-configured

  • GST, PST, HST and QST at the correct rates, out of the box
  • Per-transaction and per-line overrides for selling across provinces
  • Tax broken out by component — filing figures read straight off
  • Breakdowns stored, not recalculated: a stable audit trail
CLIENTS & CATALOGUE

Clients, products and services

  • Full client records with invoice history and outstanding balance
  • Reusable line items with default prices
  • Seven unit types: hour, day, item, project, month, year, unit
  • Deactivate items without disturbing past invoices
REPORTS

Four reports your accountant will accept

  • Category Summary, Tax Summary, Transaction Detail, Monthly Overview
  • Every report exports to PDF with a self-documenting cover sheet
  • CSV export for spreadsheet work
  • Configurable fiscal year — April-to-March works out of the box
COMPANIES

Multiple companies, cleanly separated

  • Each company is its own independent folder
  • Open a company restored from backup or copied from another machine
  • Duplicate a company before a risky change or for year-end archiving
  • No risk of two companies mixing in one screen

Bilingual and native, on your desktop

The whole interface — reports and month names included — works in English (Canada) and French (Canada), switchable at any time. Light and dark themes, with a system option. A native desktop application, not a browser tab.

On macOS the app is signed and notarized by Apple — it installs with a normal double-click. Windows and Linux builds are available too.

All of it for $30 a year.
