Setup is ours
We connect the ledgers, map the accounts and check the first data. There is no setup fee, and most companies go from the first call to live data in under two hours.

How we work with customers
Your reports first
Send screenshots of the three or four reports your board already knows, and we rebuild those before anything else.
Your books stay yours
Control reads every ledger through official APIs, read-only by default; write-back, if you turn it on, posts only drafts an Owner or Admin approved. Billing is monthly, with no multi-year contract, and the notice period starts from one month. If you leave, nothing in your books changes; transaction lists export to Excel or CSV.
We have been super happy with the service also. Whenever we have some questions or demands, you tell us if you can help, and then you just do it. It’s refreshing that we can speak to you as to a finance professional.
