Statements and Receipts

Data comes in many formats from many places. It is messy, unstructured, and inconsistent.

Scattered
Reconciliation and categorization

Reconciliation and Categorization

Manual review turns bookkeeping into hours of repetitive checking and correction.

Time-consuming
CRA forms and returns

CRA Forms and Returns

HST, T2125, and CCA outputs still depend on careful line-by-line preparation.

VERIFICATION

Before any document leaves — 5 checks confirm everything is correct.

Reconciliation check

Opening balance + deposits − expenses = closing balance. Matches your bank statement exactly.

HST cross-check

HST collected − ITCs = net tax owing. Verified against every transaction.

T2125 line verification

Sum of all expense lines = total expenses. Every dollar accounted for.

Anomaly scan

Duplicates, outliers, spending spikes — flagged before you open the file.

Completeness check

Zero uncategorized transactions. Zero missing codes.

Most bookkeeping tools do one check. We do five.

ANOMALY DETECTION

We catch what you might miss.

Fraud on business accounts works slowly. $4.99 here. $9.99 there. A duplicate no one notices. A month where expenses doubled for no reason.

  • Duplicate payments
  • Slow-bleed recurring charges
  • Transactions significantly above normal range
  • Monthly spending spikes
  • Large unexpected deposits

All flagged. Before documents go to your client.
