FAQ

Why exports instead of a QuickBooks connection?

Connectors often can't read payroll, and QuickBooks Desktop has no connector. Exported reports work with every version, keep access read-only, and give you a paper trail.

Does it work with QuickBooks Desktop Pro?

Yes. It works from reports exported to Excel or CSV from Desktop Pro, Premier, Enterprise or QuickBooks Online, and shows you where each report is in your version.

Will it change my books or run payroll?

No. It builds reports, reconciliations and fix lists, and drafts suggested entries. You or your accountant make any change in QuickBooks.

Is this tax advice?

No. It's bookkeeping support that finds errors and mismatches. Tax treatment and filings belong to your CPA or enrolled agent, and it formats questions for them.

Will it act without asking me?

No. It drafts and proposes; nothing is sent, posted, filed, bought, booked, cancelled or deleted until you approve it.

Is my data shared anywhere?

No. Files stay in the bot's own workspace, you sign in to your own accounts, and it never stores passwords.
