Accounting Software for CPA Firms

We help you move clients onto Bookkeeping AI and clean inputs upstream. You get a review‑ready package — so you approve and sign off faster.

Built for CPA firms that review and sign off

For CPA Firms and Accounting Leaders

This page is for firms that want cleaner client data, predictable month‑end review, and a standard workflow across a multi‑system portfolio — without forcing a big‑bang migration.

Multi‑system client portfolios

Dozens or hundreds of clients spread across tools and formats — where review turns into cleanup.

External bookkeeping, CPA responsibility

Bookkeepers do the day‑to‑day, but your firm still owns accuracy, control, and sign‑off.

Control without a stack replacement

You want standardization and fewer surprises — without replacing everything at once.

Review shouldn’t mean rebuilding books

Why Month‑End Review Becomes a Cleanup Project

When inputs come in from many tools and formats, “review” turns into technical repair. The result is peak stress at reporting periods and a growth ceiling on partner bandwidth.

Unreliable reports until manual pull‑together

Every period starts with cleanup — only then can the numbers be trusted for decisions.

High‑skill time spent on technical checks

Duplicates, gaps, missing documents, and VAT/tax errors consume senior time.

Clients and bookkeepers in different tools

Standardizing process and data quality becomes nearly impossible across the portfolio.

Partner bandwidth becomes the bottleneck

Reporting peaks overload seniors and block firm growth.

A standard front and a clean export package

Bookkeeping AI as a Data Preparation Layer

Data prep above any system

Collect documents through consistent channels, standardize the input, and produce a clean package for your review and filing.

Central client front

Clients and their teams use one workspace — your firm receives the same format for every client.

Gradual migration path

Move clients in batches (not a big‑bang). Most firms start with a small set, prove the workflow, and then migrate the rest of the portfolio to Bookkeeping AI.

Choose the workflow per client

Two Modes for CPA Practices

Mode 1. Data prep for your current system
  • Digital document collection, OCR drafts, and categorization suggestions.
  • Export packages into your current accounting system (as a short transition step).
  • CPA layer: data quality dashboard (what’s collected, what’s missing, where risk is) and standardized exports for review and filing.
Mode 2. Up to 90% routine work on small clients — done
  • Up to 90% of routine work is handled by the platform (AI Bookkeeper).
  • You review only the exceptions the system flags — and keep control points, risk checks, and final sign‑off.
  • You receive close‑ready books and reports, and spend senior time on tax planning and complex questions.
Outcomes that make review predictable

Reviewable Package for Sign‑Off

More accurate reports with fewer manual fixes

A cleaner package before review: fewer duplicates, gaps, missing documents, and obvious VAT/tax issues.

Shorter technical review time

More checks happen earlier and more consistently, so senior time goes to judgment, not mechanical comparison.

Standardization across the portfolio

One entry point for documents, categories, and control lists — regardless of where the books formally live.

Controlled path away from legacy tools

When a client system hurts quality or speed, you can move them to Bookkeeping AI and standardize the workflow across the portfolio.

Catch issues before they reach sign‑off

Quality Controls and Risk Views Before Close

AI bookkeeping layer

Categorization suggestions plus anomaly, duplicate, and missing‑document detection.

Control mechanisms

Bank vs books mismatches, transactions without documents, and unusual VAT/tax patterns compared to client history.

CPA risk view

A separate pre‑close view for risk areas, plus firm rules and thresholds for internal review reports.

Process

How It Works (Pilot → Rollout)

1
Portfolio assessment

Client count, systems in use, quality pains.

2
Set Bookkeeping AI as the single entry point

Create clients in the system; define document channels and baseline rules.

3
Start with a small client set

Run 3–10 clients through the workflow and measure review speed and correction volume.

4
Scale

Expand the client list within your practice and standardize how data comes in — so more work is handled consistently by the platform.

5
Business as usual

Team and Bookkeeping AI prep the data; you review, approve, and sign off on reports and filings.

Why leadership cares

Benefits for Partners

Scale without linear headcount growth

Less routine per client; easier to take on new clients without burning partner hours on technical cleanup.

Better risk management

More systematic checks before reports go to clients or authorities; fewer surprises at review or audit.

Independence from clients’ legacy systems

You’re no longer hostage to clients’ old systems; you have your own front standard — Bookkeeping AI — and can gradually move clients to full bookkeeping on the platform.

Stronger client relationships

You offer not just “signing reports” but a clear, modern process; easier to argue: “Let’s move to this platform — I’ll work faster and you’ll get more stable, accurate numbers.”
