Most accounting software marketed to US small businesses is overbuilt and overpriced. QuickBooks charges $30β$90 a month. FreshBooks starts at $17/month. Xero starts at $15/month. For a freelancer or small business processing a few dozen transactions a month, these costs are hard to justify β especially when the software is far more complex than you'll ever need.
MapleBooks is different. It covers every bookkeeping task a US small business actually needs: sales invoicing, expense tracking, tax reports, and financial statements. One payment. No subscription. No annual renewal.
Come tax season, MapleBooks gives you the reports your CPA needs: a clean profit & loss statement, expense breakdown by category, and a full income summary. Whether you're filing as a sole proprietor on Schedule C, an LLC, or an S-Corp, MapleBooks keeps your books in order year-round so there are no surprises in April.
US sales tax is supported β you can set tax rates per invoice line item, making it easy to handle state sales tax compliance across different states.
Cloud accounting software stores your financial records on third-party servers. MapleBooks stores everything on your own computer β no one else has access to your revenue figures, client invoices, or expense records. For US business owners who take privacy seriously, this is a meaningful difference.
MapleBooks is sold through Stripe, one of the world's most trusted payment processors. Your payment information is never stored on our servers. All transactions are encrypted and processed securely. And with our 30-day money-back guarantee, your purchase carries zero risk.
