Stop guessing if
you made money last week
Connect your POS, snap your invoices, and know your profit by Monday. No spreadsheets, no bookkeeper, no waiting until month-end to find out you lost money.
See yourself in this?
These are the moments Ledger was built for.
The End-of-Month Scramble
It's the 3rd. Your accountant needs last month's numbers. You're digging through emails, bank statements, and a folder of receipts.
What if it was already done?
The DoorDash Mystery
DoorDash deposited $3,200 this month. After fees, commissions, and chargebacks... did you actually make money?
Ledger shows you the real number.
The Payroll Shock
You just ran payroll: $28K for the quarter. Is that 30% of revenue or 40%? At 40% you're bleeding.
Ledger tells you instantly.
The Supplier Creep
Chicken went from $3.49/lb to $4.12/lb over 3 months. You didn't notice until margins dropped.
Ledger tracks every line item so you catch it early.
From clueless to clear in 3 steps
No spreadsheets. No waiting for your bookkeeper. No accounting degree.

Frequently asked questions
Got questions? We have answers.
How is this different from QuickBooks?
QuickBooks is built for accountants. Ledger is built for restaurant owners. We auto-sync your POS data, use AI to categorize expenses, and deliver a P&L weekly — no chart of accounts, no journal entries, no accounting jargon. Setup takes 90 seconds, not 2 weeks.
Do I need an accountant?
Not for your day-to-day financial picture. Ledger gives you the weekly clarity you need to run your business. You may still want an accountant for taxes, but you'll hand them clean, organized data instead of a shoebox of receipts.
What POS systems do you support?
We currently integrate with Square, Stripe, and Clover — covering over 80% of SMB food businesses. DoorDash, Toast, and more are on the roadmap. Even without a POS integration, you can manually enter sales or upload reports.
Is my data secure?
Absolutely. We use bank-level encryption (AES-256), never store your POS credentials (we use OAuth), and all data is hosted on SOC 2 compliant infrastructure. Your financial data is never shared or sold.
What happens after the free trial?
After 30 days, you pick a plan that fits your needs. No surprise charges — we'll remind you before the trial ends. If you decide not to continue, you can export all your data.
You deserve to know your numbers
Every week you fly blind is a week you might be losing money without knowing it. Connect your POS and find out in 90 seconds.
