We run the books. We built the software to do it.

DayZero is a consulting firm that handles every side of company finance — accounting and the close, AP/AR, inventory and landed COGS, demand planning, cash forecasting, loan packages and debt schedules, reporting — delivered on software we built ourselves. Our accountants run the work end-to-end, or stand behind your team while they run it. Our engineers work directly with you: they wire the platform into your stack and build the features your operation needs — when something's missing, it gets built, not filed as a ticket. Underneath it all is one double-entry ledger, so every product reads and writes the same numbers.

DayZero uses purpose-built AI agents trained specifically for accounting tasks — not a general-purpose chatbot pointed at your books. Every agent action is logged and reviewable. You set confidence thresholds that determine what gets auto-applied vs. what comes to you for review. Every entry includes full source attribution so you can verify any decision.

Yes. DayZero is built for auditability, not blind trust. Every AI action records its inputs, the source documents it referenced, the rule or match logic it applied, and a confidence score — all captured in an immutable audit trail you can review or export. You set confidence thresholds so anything uncertain routes to a human for review, and nothing is hidden. It's designed to satisfy your auditors and give your CFO the traceability they need to sign off.

Yes. DayZero has direct migration connectors for both QuickBooks Online and Xero — connect via OAuth and DayZero imports your chart of accounts, customers, vendors, items, transactions, and balances, finishing with an opening-balance journal entry and a trial-balance QA report. From other platforms you can migrate via CSV import, and our team can assist with larger migrations.

Absolutely. DayZero encrypts everything — AES-256 at rest · TLS 1.3 in transit. SOC 2 Type II in progress, target Q1 2027 with a third-party auditor; in the meantime we operate against the SOC 2 control framework, enforce role-based access controls, and maintain a full audit trail for every AI action. We never train on your proprietary data.

Every engagement is scoped. We look at your stack, your volume, and what the close actually requires, then we name the number on the first call — no rate card, no per-seat math, no surprise overages. Most engagements start with a five-day guided pilot so both sides know exactly what they're signing up for. See how we work for the full picture.

You get ours. Most engagements are run end-to-end by our accountants on our platform — categorization, reconciliation, close, and reporting handled for you. If you already have a team or a firm you like, we deploy the platform into your stack and they run it with our support.

DayZero integrates with Plaid (banking), Stripe (payments), Shopify, Square, Ramp, HubSpot, Slack, and more, plus direct migration connectors for QuickBooks Online and Xero. ERP connectors for NetSuite and Sage Intacct plus Amazon are on the roadmap. You can request any integration and it directly shapes what we build next.

We're a firm, not a subscription. Accountants and engineers who deploy our own platform into your stack and then own the outcome — clean books, a close that lands on time, a cap table you can defend, numbers ready for the raise. QuickBooks and Xero sell you software and leave the work to you. Bench and Pilot sell you a service and keep the software to themselves. We do both, which is why you keep real-time access and full control of your books while we run them.
