About Botkeeper

Accounting firms run into the same wall as they grow: more clients means more bookkeeping, and more bookkeeping means hiring people to key data. Botkeeper approaches the problem as an automated bookkeeping service for firms, pairing software with a team of accountants and selling the combination to the firm instead of to its end clients directly.

Technology with a team behind it

The company calls its method Tech and Team. Machine learning and workflow tools take on the manual, time-consuming parts of bookkeeping and pre-accounting work. Skilled accountants handle complex scenarios, apply critical thinking and train the models so they improve over time. Botkeeper argues that the usual all-or-nothing use of technology works poorly, and that people and software should each do what they do best.

What a firm receives

Support is organized around a dedicated growth partner who acts as the firm's main contact, onboarding and training, email and phone support, a resource library and enablement kit, and group training on topics such as sales, marketing and pricing strategy. The company says it builds a custom team for each firm, communicating across several channels, and offers support upgrades so the level of help can match the firm's needs. A newer online sign-up lets a firm start without a long process.

Security and scale

The company states that it holds SOC 2 Type 2 compliance and uses bank-grade security. It says its cost per client falls over time as a firm grows, and that automation replaces manual entry so a firm can add clients, broaden its offering and stand apart from competitors without extra data-entry staff.

Track record

Botkeeper describes itself as one of the top-selling automated bookkeeping solutions for around eight years. The site cites more than 200 accounting firms and over 5,000 of their business clients using its process, and it offers to make things right when a firm is not happy. Its blog covers topics for accountants, such as accounting guidance on cryptocurrency from the standards board.
