    Meet the person on your first call.

    I’m Jacob, Median’s co-founder. I work directly with business owners to understand what they need from their books and make sure the service fits.

    We’ll talk through your current setup, what you want handled and how a handoff could work. You’ll have a chance to ask questions before deciding anything.

    Talk with Jacob

    A few things you may be wondering.

    How does the flat price work?

    Essential is $200 a month under $250K in annual revenue. Growth is $500 a month from $250K to $1M. Over $1M, we scope the work. No per-transaction fees apply on Essential or Growth, and a real accountant is on every plan.

    What is included?

    Everything to keep your books right: we categorize and post transactions every business day, you get a P&L, balance sheet, and cash-flow view you can actually use, and a real accountant reviews the work. Tax filing is an optional add-on from $1,499 a year.

    Will my accountant join our weekly operations?

    Your named accountant is accountable for your books and answers questions about them. If you need recurring operating meetings or hands-on coordination with your team, tell us what that person should own each week. We will put the owner, cadence, and scope in the proposal.

    Can you switch me from my current bookkeeper?

    Yes. Migration to Median is included with ongoing bookkeeping, and we coordinate the handoff. Historical cleanup is reviewed and quoted separately before work starts. Eligible first-year catch-up can be included when you have no completed books and Median is your first ongoing bookkeeping service, with the scope confirmed in writing.

    What if I am behind on my books?

    We review the backlog and agree the covered months, fee, and timeline before starting. Eligible first-year catch-up can be included when you have no completed books and Median is your first ongoing bookkeeping service. Existing-book repairs and older years are separately quoted. You do not have to sort out the backlog before you talk to us.

    Is my bank data secure?

    Yes. We connect through Plaid, the same bank-level, read-only connection used by major fintech apps. We never see or store your login, and access is view-only, so we can read transactions but never move money.

    How much does Median flat-rate bookkeeping cost?

    Essential is $200 a month under $250K in annual revenue. Growth is $500 a month from $250K to $1M in annual revenue. Over $1M in annual revenue, including when the books involve more entities, payroll, or forecasting, we scope the price on a 20-minute call. Essential and Growth have no per-transaction fee and no setup fee. A real accountant is on both plans. Optional tax filing starts at $1,499 a year.

    Does financial account count change my flat plan?

    A financial account is a bank account, a credit or debit card, a crypto wallet, or a payment processor such as Stripe, PayPal, or Shopify. Account count does not change Essential or Growth. Scale, above $1M in revenue, is custom priced. Ads, analytics, and CRM connections are unlimited and are separate from the financial-account count.

    Does a human accountant review the books?

    Yes. On every plan, including Essential at $200 a month, AI categorizes the new activity and a real accountant reviews the exceptions. That person is accountable for your books and answers your questions on business days; complex work follows an agreed scope and timeline. The review is included in the flat price. Recurring operating meetings and hands-on coordination with your team are scoped in the proposal, with the owner, cadence, and scope agreed before you start.

    Who is Median flat-rate bookkeeping a fit for?

    Median Labs Inc. offers this at medianfi.com for owner-operated businesses in the United States. The closest fit is a software company or a professional services firm, such as an agency or consultancy, that wants transactions categorized and posted every business day, with a real accountant reviewing the work. Under $1M in annual revenue the price is flat: $200 a month under $250K, or $500 a month from $250K to $1M.

    Who is not a fit for Median flat-rate bookkeeping?

    A company outside the United States is outside this offer. Median does not sell CFO advisory. The monthly fee covers bookkeeping with a real accountant, and when you want a fractional CFO we introduce you to independent ones from our partner network at no charge and take no fee or revenue share. Consolidated statements across multiple entities are a scoped add-on. Inventory and multi-currency are scoped on a call. Over $1M in annual revenue we scope the price on a call. The $200 and $500 bands are for annual revenue under $1M. Bank access is view-only through Plaid, so we can read transactions but never move money. The published focus is software companies and professional services firms. If yours is a different industry, we will tell you on the call whether the flat plans cover the books.

    What will the first call cover?

    You’ll speak with Jacob, Median’s co-founder, for 20 minutes about your business, the state of your books and what you want handled. We discuss fit and the next steps. You do not need to upload financial records or pay to book.

    What if my books are behind?

    We review the historical work before you start. Migration is included with ongoing bookkeeping. Catch-up and cleanup work are separately quoted, so you can decide with the full scope in front of you.

    Will I have a real accountant?

    Yes. A real accountant reviews the bookkeeping work and answers questions on business days. Complex questions and additional work follow an agreed scope and timeline.
