The problem

If any of these sound familiar, you're already paying for it.

Most owners we talk to aren't short on effort. They're short on numbers they can trust, in time to act on them.

What you get back

Your weekends, your peace of mind, and a calmer tax season.

Running the business is the job. Chasing receipts and guessing at cash shouldn't be.

  • Your weekends back

    No more Sunday catch-up in QuickBooks. We keep the books current, so your time off stays yours.

  • Less stress

    You see cash, receivables, and payables every Monday, so you stop guessing and stop lying awake before payroll.

  • Tax prep without the scramble

    Your CPA gets reconciled books all year. No shoebox of receipts, no March panic, no surprises.

    We don't prepare taxes. We make sure your CPA has clean books to work from.

Three programs, one path

Start where it hurts. Add more when you're ready.

Each program stands on its own. Each one also feeds the next, so you never re-do the work.

Start here

The Clean Books in 30 Days Program

Bookkeeping for owners whose books are behind, or who just want them right every month.

From $500 / month

Commit to a term and we clean up that many months of past books, included. No commitment? Cleanup is an additional flat fee from $500 a month, scoped to your books.

  • Your current month reconciled in 30 days, then your past months caught up
  • A weekly snapshot every Monday: last week's revenue, cash position, and total AR and AP
  • Every account reconciled and every category reviewed, monthly
  • Statements with a plain-English note on what changed
  • A clean handoff your tax preparer can work from

Our promise: once you're onboarded, books closed by the 10th business day of each month, or that month's fee is on us. Your first month and cleanup work are excluded.

Done for you

The Finance Department, Done For You

Full finance operations as one engagement, for owners who want the whole finance side off their plate.

Scoped to your business

Priced after a short call, based on accounts, entities, active projects, and volume.

  • Everything in the Controller program, with us keeping the books
  • One team, one point of contact, one monthly price
  • One documented improvement to your finance process each quarter
  • Credit toward a custom tool build, such as the C-Suite Finance Hub

Our promise: if the first 90 days don't meet your agreed-upon expectations, we refund 50% of what you paid in those 90 days.

Hand off finance

The catch-up match

Commit a month. We clean up a month.

For every month you commit to up front, we catch up one month of your past books at no extra charge. Being behind is why most owners put this off, so we take it out of the price.

Sign up for 6 months and we clean up 6 months of your books, included. Without a commitment, cleanup is an additional flat fee starting at $500 a month on top of your monthly fee, priced on the size and condition of your books. Available with any of the three programs.

  • You commit to 3 months

    We clean up 3 months

  • You commit to 6 months

    We clean up 6 months

  • You commit to 12 months

    We clean up 12 months

What's included.
Reconciling and categorizing your past bank and card accounts, from the records you give us, for up to 12 months.
If you don't commit.
Cleanup is an additional flat fee from $500 a month, added to your monthly fee. Set after we see your records and agreed before any work begins.
How we pace it.
We clean your most recent months first, then release the rest as your term goes on.
If you leave early.
Cleanup already completed is billed at our standard rate, starting at $500 per month cleaned.

Proof

What changes when the finance side is handled.

Real results from CaptureLedger clients, shown without names.

  • Consulting and software

    Before: No AP or AR process in place.

    After: A defined process that cuts down the time spent chasing details.

    “CaptureLedger allowed us to streamline and free up time to focus on more important tasks.”

  • Consulting

Common questions

Do we need all three programs?
No. Each stands on its own. Most clients start with one and add the next when they need it.
We already have a bookkeeper. Can you still help?
Yes. The Controller program is built to sit on top of your bookkeeper: we review their work, close the books on a schedule, and add forecasting.
Are you a CPA firm?
No. We don't do tax preparation, audit, review, or compilation. We work alongside your CPA and hand them clean books.
What if my business isn't contract or project based?
Talk to us. Owner-led businesses of many kinds work with us. Contract and project businesses are where our forecasting tools help most.
