I've been running small businesses for about 20 years. I used QuickBooks Online for a while and got tired of the monthly cost, the slow UI, and having all my financial data on someone else's servers.

I wanted something like the desktop finance apps I've used for personal stuff over the years: opens fast, works offline, data is a file I control.

AllMy Ledger is built with Electron, Svelte, and SQLite. Your company file is a single .ledger file on your hard drive. It does double-entry bookkeeping, invoicing, estimates, bank reconciliation, and 12 reports including Schedule C.

What it doesn't do: payroll, bank feeds, inventory, mobile app.

$149 one-time during launch, 7-day free trial, no account or signup needed.

Happy to answer questions about the tech, the business model, or anything else.
