A modern, AI-native alternative to ProfitBooks

You gain offline speed and data ownership while keeping modern UX and sharing. Optional encrypted cloud sync is on the roadmap.

A flat ₹249/₹449/₹2,499 per month with the full offline core in every plan — no per-feature cloud upsells.

simple online accounting and GST invoicing aimed at small businesses, browser-based access with inventory and basic reporting and easy to start for teams that want a lightweight cloud tool. On the comparison above, ProfitBooks also matches us on posted double-entry gl + chart of accounts, gst returns, e-invoice/e-way & 2b reconciliation and modern ui · light & dark. We would rather list those than pretend otherwise — if they are what your business turns on, ProfitBooks is a reasonable choice and this page is not trying to talk you out of it.

If your accountant is fluent in ProfitBooks and your year-end depends on that fluency, the switching cost is real and it is yours to pay, not ours. If you need a public API to wire accounting into other systems, we do not have one. And if payroll must live in the same product, we have none at all. Those are three good reasons to stay.

Masters — customers, vendors, products — and opening balances come across; transaction history stays where it is, as a read-only archive. There is no automated import from ProfitBooks today, and we would rather say so than oversell it. You start clean on a date you choose, which is why most businesses switch at a financial-year or quarter boundary.

On the matrix above it comes down to works fully offline, full core in every plan, gst error catcher & notice-risk score and deterministic ai insights (offline). Underneath those rows the difference is one decision: everything posts to a single double-entry ledger that the returns, the reports and the AI all read from — so there is no second set of numbers anywhere in the product to reconcile.

Often — our entry plan carries the whole double-entry core, GST returns, inventory and banking, with no separate AMC and no module that unlocks later. Compare what is inside the tier rather than the headline number, though, because that is where these products usually differ. Prices are shown ex-GST with the rate and gross beside them, and there is a 14-day trial with no card.

It is correct by construction rather than at filing time: CGST/SGST and IGST split from HSN or SAC and place of supply as each invoice is raised, GSTR-1, 3B and 2B reconciliation come off those same books, and an error catcher flags wrong-head, wrong-rate, missing-HSN and duplicate invoices before you file rather than after a notice.

On the Desktop edition, entirely — the database is a file on your machine, so billing, accounting, GST and stock behave identically with the network unplugged. AI and billing are the only two things that reach out. The Cloud edition needs a connection, with the POS till the one deliberate exception.

Run a fortnight of your own real documents through both. 14 days, no card. Enter your awkward cases rather than clean ones — the inter-state sale, the credit note, the scheme discount, the batch return — because those are where accounting products differ, and where a demo dataset is designed to be silent.
