What it does
Invoices, bills, budgets, bank feeds, payroll and taxes, all tied together, so a change in one place shows up everywhere it should.
Line-item invoices, estimates that convert in one click, and a pay-by-card link that marks itself paid through Stripe.
Set a schedule once. Invoices generate themselves, and clients who save a card are charged automatically.
Connect an account, sync a year of history, and let transactions categorize themselves into a real ledger.
A 30-day runway, aging receivables, and a Safe-to-Spend figure that nets out unpaid bills and your tax reserve.
Chart of accounts, general ledger, trial balance, balance sheet, and income statement — generated, not hand-kept.
Quarterly estimates, sales-tax tracking, 1099-NEC prep for contractors, and a read-only accountant portal at year end.
Track billable hours and miles, then pull them straight onto an invoice. Run simple payroll for a small team.
Ask plain-language questions about your numbers. Every write it suggests waits for your confirmation.
Bank tokens encrypted at rest, per-business data isolation, closed-period guards, and a full activity log.
How it works
Three steps from a blank account to books that keep themselves.
Create your first invoice in under a minute. Your client gets a link they can pay by card, no account needed.
Plaid pulls in transactions, CorbelBooks matches deposits to invoices and files expenses into categories.
Reminders go out on schedule, the ledger stays reconciled, and your dashboard always shows what's safe to spend.

Yes, any time, from your billing page. You keep access until the end of the period you've paid for, and you can download every list and report as CSV whenever you like, paid or not.
No. The app keeps proper double-entry books behind the scenes so you can work in plain terms: clients, invoices, bills. When you do want an accountant involved, give them a read-only link and they see the statements they need.
Every invoice has a private pay link. Clients pay by card through Stripe's hosted checkout, and the invoice marks itself paid when the money lands. Clients can also save a card for recurring work.
Bank connections go through Plaid, so we never see your bank login. The access token Plaid gives us is encrypted at rest with a key kept separate from the database, and your data is isolated to your business.
Yes. Import clients and ledger transactions from a CSV with column mapping and a preview before anything is written. Every report and list can be exported back out as CSV.
It answers questions about your numbers and can draft invoices or log bills for you — but it only ever proposes. Nothing is written until you click Confirm.
CorbelBooks estimates quarterly income tax, tracks sales tax collected and remitted, and prepares 1099-NEC totals for contractors. These are estimates to plan around, not a substitute for a tax professional.
