The problem
You outsourced your bookkeeping. But the problems didn't go away.
Whether it's a firm, a freelancer, or an in-house hire, the same frustrations keep coming up. Here's what founders tell us over and over.
01
Slow and unresponsive
You wait days or weeks for replies. Critical questions stall. Month-end momentum dies. You're paying for a service that moves slower than you do.
02
Communication is chaos
Important context lives across Slack, email, texts, and shared folders. When your bookkeeper misses something, nobody knows where the instruction originally lived.
03
They don't understand your business
Your bookkeeper manages 20 to 30 clients. They don't have the context to categorize transactions correctly or maintain schedules accurately. Nuances never make it into the ledger.
04
Output is slow, inconsistent, and wrong
Month-end takes 3 to 4 weeks. Prepaids, accruals, and depreciation schedules get missed. Nuanced transactions are booked incorrectly. Someone internal still has to review everything, defeating the purpose of outsourcing.
05
Static financials, zero insight
Your bookkeeper delivers financial statements and considers the job done. But you need more: what changed this month, should you be concerned, and how does this affect runway, hiring, or pricing? You get reports. You need clarity.
The result?
Founders end up with numbers they can't trust and a finance function that feels like a black box.
How it works
Three steps to books you actually understand.
No onboarding headaches. We connect to your QuickBooks, learn your business, and take it from there.
01

Connect your QuickBooks

We link directly to your QBO account. No data migration, no manual uploads. Your existing chart of accounts stays intact.

02

We learn your business

Porter studies your transaction history, vendor patterns, and account structure. Within days, it categorizes with the accuracy of a senior bookkeeper who actually knows your business.

03

Books you can trust, every month

Your books close within days of month-end. You get clear financial reports that explain what changed, what matters, and what to do next. Log in anytime. Every number is explainable.

What you get
Everything your bookkeeper does.
Plus everything they can't.
Porter is AI-native, but there are always humans making sure the numbers are right. AI supercharges our team of excellent bookkeepers and accountants so you get faster closes and fewer errors.

Intelligent categorization

Every bank and credit card transaction is automatically categorized using AI that learns your specific business patterns. No more chasing your bookkeeper to fix the same mistakes every month.

Schedules that maintain themselves

Prepaids, fixed assets, depreciation, and revenue recognition, all built, calculated, and posted automatically. The stuff your bookkeeper forgets or tracks in a spreadsheet you never see.

Fast monthly close

Books closed within days of month-end, not 3 to 4 weeks. Reconciled, reviewed, and ready. No chasing someone for status updates.

Reports that explain, not just report

Monthly financials that tell you what changed, why it matters, and what to pay attention to. P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, in language you understand, not accounting jargon.

Full transparency, always

Log in anytime and see exactly what's happening with your books. Every transaction, every schedule, every number is explained and accessible. No more black box.

Business-aware accuracy

Porter learns the drivers of your business, not just your chart of accounts. That means fewer errors, fewer questions, and categorization that actually reflects how your company operates.

Every transaction, categorized and ready to review.

Bank and credit card transactions flow in automatically. Porter categorizes each one using patterns it learns from your business, flagging what needs attention and handling the rest. You see a clear "Ready" vs "Needs Review" inbox instead of an unorganized dump of data.

The stuff your bookkeeper keeps forgetting.

Fixed assets, prepaids, intangibles. Porter tracks every schedule, calculates monthly entries, and posts journal entries to QuickBooks automatically. No more spreadsheets. No more missed periods. No more "we'll catch up next month."
