    “Until working with Median, our books were a black box. The platform gave us a real, granular view of where the money was going, and cutting unnecessary spend became obvious.”
    Greg Mayer, CEO, Curve

    Bank-level security. Your accounts connect through Plaid with read-only access. We never store your login and never move your money.

    A real accountant on your books. AI does the volume, a real accountant owns the result. You always have a person accountable for your numbers.

    You did not start the business to do bookkeeping.

    DIY in QuickBooks eats your nights.

    Categorizing transactions and chasing receipts is hours a week that should go to clients and growth, not data entry.

    A cheap bookkeeper falls behind.

    By the time the books are done they are months old, and you are making decisions on numbers you cannot trust.

    A CPA only shows up at tax time.

    You need someone on the books all year, not a scramble every April to clean up twelve months at once.

    The whole bookkeeping job, handled for you.

    Monthly close

    Your accounts are reconciled through the month and your books are closed at month-end.

    Reports you can use

    P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, clear enough to run the business and share with a lender.

    Payroll and AR / AP

    Payroll coordinated, bills and invoices categorized, nothing left in a pile.

    Tax-ready year-end

    Clean books all year mean no April scramble. Tax filing is an easy add-on.

    If the books are already behind, that is the starting point rather than a reason to wait: see bookkeeping cleanup and catch-up. If you run an agency or a consultancy, the same work with worked examples for your model is on Median for professional services.

    How we price a small business bookkeeper.

    No setup fees, a real accountant on every engagement, and you can cancel anytime. Tax filing is a separate add-on if you want us to file the return too.

    There is one bill a month and it is metered on two things: how many financial accounts you keep, and how much activity runs through them. A business with a checking account and one card pays less than one running four accounts and a payment processor, because it is less work. We put your exact number in front of you on the intro call, and you can see the full rate card first.

    What the bookkeeper handles

    • Transactions categorized through the month, then a close at month-end
    • A P&L and balance sheet clear enough to hand to a lender unedited
    • Payroll coordinated, and AR and AP kept off your desk
    • A real accountant on the account, who you can ask what a number means

    Common questions

    Setup takes about 30 minutes on a single call. You give us view-only access to your accounts, and we bring your history over for you. There is nothing to export or forward. Most small businesses are fully running on Median within a few days.

    Yes. We run the books inside the QuickBooks you already use, so there is no migration and no new software to learn. If you are not on QuickBooks yet, we can set you up.

    Yes. We connect to your bank 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.

    That is common, and it is exactly where we start. We clean up and catch up your prior months as part of onboarding, then keep everything current with a close every month. You do not have to sort out the backlog before you talk to us.

    For most owner-led businesses the honest answer is that you need both jobs done and rarely need two hires. The bookkeeping job is the day-to-day: categorizing, reconciling, chasing the things that do not match. The accounting job is the judgment: how something should be treated, what the close means, what to do about it. Median does the first with software and the second with a real accountant, which is why it costs less than hiring for either role.

    No long-term contract. Plans are month to month and you can cancel anytime. The intro call is a short, no-pressure conversation to see if Median is a fit.

    One bill a month, metered on two things: how many financial accounts you keep, and how much activity runs through them. A business with a checking account and one card pays less than one running four accounts and a payment processor, because it is less work. We put your exact number in front of you on the intro call. There are no setup fees and nothing charged per seat.
