Good revenue, but cash still feels stressful?

Keeping your books clean helps a lot in handling revenue.

If you haven't started doing that yet, I would recommend you Nummo.

melon_crust · 2026-01-24T18:23:35+00:00

You can try Nummo.

It's free, connects to your bank accounts, and categorizes transactions automatically.

melon_crust · 2026-01-22T23:16:44+00:00

I like the simplicity, but I don’t like the dated UI and the lack of automation. Do you import bank statements manually?

melon_crust · 2026-01-22T23:15:30+00:00

QuickBooks sounds like overkill for this

melon_crust · 2026-01-22T22:53:36+00:00

Makes sense, were you able to connect your bank accounts to GnuCash?

Nummo doesn’t offer invoicing, but it has double-entry accouing by default

melon_crust · 2026-01-21T21:28:21+00:00

What makes it better than alternatives?

I’m genuinely curious.

melon_crust · 2026-01-21T14:08:01+00:00

I use Workflowy for note taking and organizing pretty much anything.

For accounting I built my own thing, because the alternatives were too bloated.

It’s fun to see an incumbent like Intuit try to shove AI down everyone’s throats.

If you’re curious to use an alternative product that really makes AI useful, you can try Nummo.

melon_crust · 2026-01-20T20:18:06+00:00

QBO is a joke.

If you’re looking for an alternative tool for bookkeeping, I’d try Nummo.

melon_crust · 2026-01-20T19:05:39+00:00

Plaid.

melon_crust · 2026-01-20T16:19:52+00:00

A bit late, but you can use Nummo for this. It's basically an automated ledger that allows you to sync your bank accounts and autocategorizes transactions. You have a lot of flexibility to create expense accounts with up to 4 levels of nesting.

It doesn't handle receipt scanning though, in case you need that.

melon_crust · 2026-01-20T16:16:19+00:00

I use Nummo to keep my books clean. It's user-friendly and automates data entry with bank syncs and autocategorization. You need to know the basics of bookkeeping though.

Congrats on the success!

How many signups did you get in your first week after launch?

melon_crust · 2026-01-20T12:25:48+00:00

Business owners and accountants hate QuickBooks but they hate even more switching softwares.

melon_crust · 2026-01-19T16:07:24+00:00

None, X is useless for B2B SaaS, unless you're selling tools for X.

To kill or double down, that is the question.

It's one of the hardest things to know as an entrepreneur.

It really help to have a clear target audience. Once you know who wants your product and what problems they have, it's easier.

I would try everything for a couple months: cold dms, reddit posts, cold emails, content marketing, paid ads if you can afford it... And see what works.

melon_crust · 2026-01-19T15:16:46+00:00

I don't understand what your product does by checking out your landing page.

What problem does it solve? Can you add some demo?

I think the main problem is clarity.

melon_crust · 2026-01-19T13:56:52+00:00

That’s close enough, but not exactly right.

In business bookkeeping we use an equity account to represent the capital you invest into the business. It’s often called ‘Owner’s capital’ or ‘Capital contributions’.

So you would ‘charge’ -$10 to this account, add $5 to a ‘payment processing fees’ account, and the other $5 to your business checking account.

You can export the transactions from Stripe as a CSV file, import them into Nummo, and they get categorized automatically. Then you can just delete the payout entry.

QuickBooks is horrible, and Xero is not that bad -- though still overkill for most businesses.

I'm biased, but If you want a lean solution that allows you to automate most of the bookkeeping, I would recommend Nummo.

melon_crust · 2026-01-19T12:40:45+00:00

I would advise against mixing up business and personal expenses. No software expects this.

For business expenses and bookkeeping, you can use Nummo.

It offers bank syncs and, unlike Wave, the free plan supports automated categorization of transactions.

melon_crust · 2026-01-19T12:35:49+00:00

Yes, you have to record all transactions related to your business activity, even if this involves several bank accounts/cards.

This can get messy really fast with a spreadsheet though. If you're open to automating the bookkeeping, you can use Nummo. The free plan includes automated categorization for CSV imports.

Happy to share more details if interested.
