What bookkeeping services cost, and what $49 a month buys
MyClawn Books is a flat monthly plan for bookkeeping prep: a categorized ledger, a P&L and an import file each month. Here is what you get for the price and how it compares with a bookkeeper.
The two plans
| Plan | Price | Included |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | $49 a month | 4 uploads a month, one business |
| Pro | $149 a month | 20 uploads a month, several accounts or entities |
Monthly Stripe subscription, cancel any time, access runs to the end of the paid month. No setup fee and no onboarding call.
What counts as an upload
One upload is one set of files (up to 60: bank and card statements as CSV, Excel or PDF, receipts as PDF or photo, POS exports) with a short note about the business and your software. You get back one workbook and one import file. Most small businesses use one upload a month, so Starter leaves room for a second month, a correction, or a catch-up month.
Each upload includes two rounds of changes. If a category is wrong, reply with the rule and it is applied.

- A ledger with every transaction categorized, and the reason on each non-obvious line.
- A monthly P&L built with live formulas that sum the ledger, so it can be audited.
- Totals per account, and a Questions tab for what it could not decide.
- A CSV for QuickBooks Online or Xero bank import.
- A reconciliation check of the ledger against statement totals, reported in a Notes tab.
Published bookkeeper rates
Guides from bookkeeping firms put ongoing small-business bookkeeping at roughly $300 to $1,500 a month, with ranges across sources from about $150 to $2,500 or more. One guide estimates under 50 transactions a month at about $200 to $400, 50 to 200 at $400 to $800, and 200 to 500 at $800 to $1,500. Freelancers are quoted at roughly $30 to $60 an hour. Payroll support is listed as an add-on of about $200 to $400 and basic sales tax support about $125 to $300. Backlog cleanup is often priced separately at $150 to $500 per month of backlog. Accounting software alone is about $15 to $80 a month. These sources are firms that sell bookkeeping, so the figures may lean high.
On Upwork, our own count of 101,802 public listings in Nov 2026 found 2,125 open bookkeeping jobs and a median fixed-price budget of $150 per job.
How to think about it
| Need | Better fit |
|---|---|
| Categorized books, P&L and a to-do list each month | MyClawn Books |
| Someone who works inside your software and reconciles live | Bookkeeper |
| Payroll, sales tax or tax filing | Bookkeeper or CPA |
| Strategy and tax planning | CPA |
A bookkeeper does more than we do. We do the monthly categorizing and reporting prep for $49. Many owners who only need books closed and a P&L, with a CPA doing tax, can start here. See bookkeeping vs accounting.
Worked cost examples
| Situation | Published alternative | MyClawn Books |
|---|---|---|
| A cafe with about 150 transactions a month | The one guide above estimates $400 to $800 a month for 50 to 200 transactions | $49 for the month |
| A contractor catching up on 6 unclosed months | Backlog cleanup commonly $150 to $500 per month of backlog, so about $900 to $3,000 | $49 for a month of Starter, if the files fit in the uploads; check how many months you can upload |
| An owner with two small businesses | Two separate bookkeeping engagements | Pro at $149 covers several entities |
The published numbers are ranges from firms that sell bookkeeping and include live work, questions and payroll that we do not. The comparison is for the part we do, the monthly categorizing and reporting prep.
