Audience
Small businesses, sole proprietors, freelancers and trades doing their own bookkeeping without an accounting department, and anyone moving off spreadsheets who wants their financial records kept on their own computer rather than in the cloud.
About Argo Books
Argo Books is easy-to-use accounting software for small businesses that want to manage their books without the complexity. It runs as a desktop app on your own computer, so there is no account to create, it works offline, and your company file stays on your machine encrypted with AES-256. Turn receipts and statements into books: photograph a receipt and it extracts the vendor, date, total and every line item; import spreadsheets with any column layout; import bank statements and match transactions automatically. Run the rest of the business in one place: invoicing and quotes with online payments through Stripe or Square, customers and suppliers, inventory with purchase orders and returns, rental bookings, and Canadian payroll with T4s. Plan ahead with revenue forecasting, reports, an analytics dashboard, and export to spreadsheets or Google Sheets. Windows, macOS and Linux. The free plan never expires: 25 invoices, 10 scans and 25 bank imports a month.
