Security & control

Review-first, firm-scoped, auditable.

AI suggestions arrive with a confidence score and reasoning, low-confidence rows wait for a person, data is scoped to your firm, and billing runs through Stripe.

01

Human review before export

Rows under 85% confidence, or that don't match the client's chart of accounts, wait for your team. Export is blocked until every row is approved and maps to the chart.

02

Firm-scoped access

Signed-in firm workspaces, with database row-level security scoping client data to your firm.

03

Session controls

Dashboard sessions require signing in again after 30 minutes of inactivity.

04

Stripe-hosted billing

Subscriptions, invoices, and payment methods are handled through Stripe Checkout and the Stripe customer portal.

Workflow automation, human judgment preserved

AI handles volume; your firm reviews exceptions before export.

CloseBooks puts statement upload, categorization, chart-of-accounts validation, exception review, and export into one guided workflow. AI proposes; your firm keeps control over the judgment calls.

What's in the product

One workflow, statement to export.

CloseBooks takes a client's bank statement to a validated, QuickBooks-ready CSV. Claude suggests accounts from the client's chart, rules saved from your corrections are reapplied, and anything uncertain waits for your review.

1

Built for the monthly close

One path per client: upload a bank statement, categorize against their chart of accounts, review, export.

2

Trust before export

COA validation, confidence scores, and an exception queue keep CPAs in control before files leave the system.

3

Firm memory

Save a correction as a vendor rule and it is applied to matching rows on later closes. Recent corrections are also passed to the AI as hints.

4

Export and report

Download a QuickBooks-ready CSV or a standard CSV, and print a close report for the period (Save as PDF).

02

AI suggests, you approve

Claude suggests an account for each transaction with a confidence score and its reasoning, using your firm's recent corrections as hints. Saved vendor rules are applied, and rows under 85% confidence wait for your review.

03

Paid pilot

Prove CloseBooks on real client work.

In a paid pilot we set up real clients with your team, run the review workflow, export the CSVs, then decide together whether a subscription makes sense.

1

Map your close process

We identify your client types, current QBO/CSV workflow, review owners, and bottlenecks.

2

Run real client samples

Your team uploads statements, validates COA mappings, reviews exceptions, and exports a close package.

3

Review the results together

We walk through the exported files, the exceptions your team handled, and the rules you saved.

4

If the pilot proves value, roll the setup into the right subscription and expand client volume.
