## Shortlist

### 1. FreeAgent

UK cloud accounting with HMRC filing, bank feeds and AI receipt capture, priced per business type.

**Where it improves on Webgility:**
- [Cost for a solo freelancer: yes — A freelancer pays the Sole trader plan: £19 a month (about $25) plus VAT at the regular rate, £9.50 (about $13) for the first six months, with bank feeds and receipt capture included and no per-transaction charge.](https://www.freeagent.com/pricing/)
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — promotion: every paid plan is advertised at 50% off for the first six months (or first year on annual billing), after which the regular published price applies.](https://www.freeagent.com/pricing/)
- [Ledger included: yes — FreeAgent is the accounting ledger itself: it keeps the books, builds the accounting reports and files the returns, so no QuickBooks or Xero subscription sits underneath it.](https://www.freeagent.com/features/accounting-software/)

**Trade-offs against Webgility:**
- [Past your plan’s limits: partial — No transaction cap is published, but Smart Capture is metered: ten receipts and bills a calendar month as standard, and more only via the £5 (about $6.70) unlimited add-on.](https://www.freeagent.com/pricing/)
- [People check the books: no — Checking the AI is yours: Smart Capture ends with you approving each captured bill or receipt, and no plan includes a bookkeeper reviewing the books, only UK support accountants answering questions.](https://www.freeagent.com/features/expenses/)
- [Shopify: no — Its partner directory carries Stripe, PayPal, GoCardless, Tyl, SumUp, WooCommerce and a paid Amazon UK add-on, but no Shopify, Square or Gusto appear in any category of that directory.](https://www.freeagent.com/integrations/)

### 2. Zoho Books

Cloud accounting ledger with Zia AI, bank feeds, sales tax and 1099 e-filing, from $20 a month.

**Where it improves on Webgility:**
- [Cost for a solo freelancer: yes — A freelancer with bank feeds and receipt capture needs the Standard plan at $20 per organization a month billed monthly, since bank feeds start there.](https://www.zoho.com/us/books/pricing/)
- [Ledger included: yes — Zoho Books is the accounting ledger itself, so no QuickBooks or Xero subscription sits underneath it; the plan fee covers invoicing, banking, journals and the reports.](https://www.zoho.com/us/books/pricing/)
- [Reconciles your accounts: yes — Bank and card accounts are reconciled inside the product, with matched and pending transactions in one view and reconciliation statements exportable as PDF per account and date range.](https://www.zoho.com/us/books/accounting-software/bank-reconciliation/)

**Trade-offs against Webgility:**
- [Promotion and regular price: no — none — the $20 Standard rate is the standing month-to-month price; the lower $15 figure is simply the yearly billing rate, not a time-limited introductory offer.](https://www.zoho.com/us/books/pricing/)
- [Past your plan’s limits: partial — Each plan caps annual invoices and bills/expenses (5,000 a year on Standard) and the vendor's stated remedy is to email sales for a higher limit rather than a published overage rate.](https://www.zoho.com/us/books/pricing/)
- [Categorizes transactions: partial — Zia pre-fills the account and vendor against each imported bank line, so it suggests rather than posts by itself, and the page does not claim it learns from your corrections.](https://www.zoho.com/us/books/accounting-software/ai-in-accounting/)

### 3. Puzzle

AI-native accounting software with optional bookkeeper services for startups and small businesses.

**Where it improves on Webgility:**
- [Ledger included: yes — It is the ledger; no QuickBooks or Xero needed. Puzzle is a double-entry general ledger of its own, sold as a QuickBooks replacement (Core card: 'Your QuickBooks replacement').](https://puzzle.io/legal/faq)
- [Catching up past months: yes — From $300 per month of books. Catch-up bookkeeping is a one-time add-on on the pricing page: the team reviews, cleans up and closes each unfinished month, from $300 per month of books (the page's example: eleven months is $3,300).](https://puzzle.io/pricing)
- [Sends invoices: yes — Sends branded invoices; you apply payments. Invoices are created in Puzzle (or imported by CSV, or synced from Stripe and Bill.com) and emailed with a PDF and your branding.](https://help.puzzle.io/en/articles/9359018-faq-accounts-receivable)

**Trade-offs against Webgility:**
- [Past your plan’s limits: partial — Moved up a plan; only AI credits priced. Seats: Starter 1, Core 5, Complete and Scale unlimited; more users means a higher plan.](https://help.puzzle.io/en/articles/17063329-puzzle-accounting-services-expert-reviewed-full-service-add-ons)
- [Accuracy the vendor claims: partial — Up to 98% categorized; no basis given. The pricing page claims 'Up to 98% auto-categorization' on every plan and '98% accuracy' for Complete; the page's structured data says '98%+ accuracy'; the help center says PuzzleBot auto-categorizes 90-95% of a company's transactions.](https://puzzle.io/pricing)
- [PayPal: partial — PayPal, Square not named. PayPal: not named on any page read.](https://puzzle.io/integrations/stripe)

- [Past your plan’s limits: partial — Moved up a band from your 3-month average. No per-unit overage price.](https://pilot.com/faq)
- [Setup or onboarding fee: yes — Onboarding charge equal to one month. A one-time onboarding charge equal to one month of bookkeeping on every plan (so $99 on Essentials and $399 to $1,199 on Core, by band, at monthly billing).](https://pilot.com/faq)
- [When the month is closed: partial — Reports by 10th business day on Core (their claim). Pilot says Core reports are ready on the 10th business day and Custom on the 6th.](https://pilot.com/pricing)

### 5. Booke AI

An AI bookkeeper that works inside QuickBooks Online and Xero to categorize transactions and match documents.

**Where it improves on Webgility:**
- [Several businesses: yes — Each business adds $129 a month, on one bill.

- [Canada: yes — US, Canada, UK and Australia, in local currency.](https://booke.ai/)
- [Australia: yes — US, Canada, UK and Australia, in local currency.](https://booke.ai/)

### 6. Stampli

Procure-to-pay workspace for invoices, vendors, payments and card spend, with AI coding and routing.

**Where it improves on Webgility:**
- [Pays your bills: yes — This is the core of the product: invoices are captured, coded, routed for approval and then paid by check, bank transfer, virtual card or international payment in the same workflow.](https://www.stampli.com/payments/)
- [People check the books: yes — Review is explicitly yours: Billy prepares work and routes exceptions, and the vendor says authorized people keep approvals, posting and payment release.](https://www.stampli.com/billy/)
- [NetSuite: yes — Stampli connects to more than seventy accounting systems, QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop and Oracle NetSuite among them, each with its own integration page](https://www.stampli.com/accounting-systems-erps/)

**Trade-offs against Webgility:**
- [Payroll: no — none built in: approved out-of-pocket claims are prepared for whatever payroll the company already uses, and the vendor says payroll still pays the employee.](https://www.stampli.com/expenses/)
- [Platforms: partial — web is the main place it runs, with mobile approvals and a mobile capture flow for receipts and mileage; the vendor never names Windows, Mac, iOS or Android.](https://www.stampli.com/expenses/)
- [Inventory: partial — Items, purchase orders and receipts come across from the accounting system so invoices can be matched line by line, but stock quantities and cost of goods sold stay in that system.](https://www.stampli.com/erp/quickbooks/)

### 7. SimpleAI

AI agents that extract, classify and reconcile accounting documents, then publish them into Xero or QuickBooks.

**Where it improves on Webgility:**
- [Cost for a solo freelancer: yes — A one-person business can start on NOVA's Starter plan at S$39 a month for 30 document credits, one entity and three users; the SAAM accounting module's own entry plan is US$79 a month plus the Xero or QuickBooks subscription it publishes into.](https://simpleaiworks.com/en/solutions/nova)
- [Reconciles your accounts: yes — Reconciliation is on every published SAAM plan: it matches your transactions against bank feed entries and flags mismatches, and converts statements into reconciled, accounting-ready transactions.](https://simpleaiworks.com/en/solutions/accounting-automation)
- [Several businesses: yes — SAAM puts unlimited entities on every published plan at no per-entity charge, so a firm or group adds client books without a price step; NOVA by contrast allows one entity on each of its tiers.](https://simpleaiworks.com/en/pricing)

**Trade-offs against Webgility:**
- [Promotion and regular price: no — none on the SAAM plan cards: the only discount the vendor names on them is 10% for annual billing, and the separate Bank Statement Extraction module is the one that runs a labeled limited-time promotion.](https://simpleaiworks.com/en/pricing)
- [People check the books: no — No bookkeeper of the vendor's checks the output: review sits with you inside the platform, and NOVA requires human approval before anything is committed to the records.](https://simpleaiworks.com/en/contact)
- [Accuracy the vendor claims: partial — The vendor claims high precision in extraction and classification and says accuracy improves with your corrections, but it publishes no accuracy percentage and no description of how any figure was measured.](https://simpleaiworks.com/en/contact)

### 8. Bookkeeper360

US-based outsourced bookkeeping, tax and CFO team working in your QuickBooks Online or Xero.

**Where it improves on Webgility:**

- [Catching up past months: yes — Catch-up and prior-period cleanup is sold as a one-time project from $1,000, covering uncategorized transactions, reconciliations and catch-up entries before monthly service starts.](https://bookkeeper360.com/services/bookkeeping/)
- [Reconciles your accounts: yes — Bank and credit card reconciliation is part of the monthly close, and the service page shows books reconciled through the month end on a monthly or weekly cadence.](https://bookkeeper360.com/services/bookkeeping/)

**Trade-offs against Webgility:**
- [Past your plan’s limits: partial — No transaction or account allowance is published, so nothing can be exceeded; what the vendor does say is that work beyond the agreed proposal is re-quoted as an extra fee or a changed engagement.](https://bookkeeper360.com/customer-policies/)
- [Setup or onboarding fee: yes — Onboarding and prior-period cleanup is a separate one-time project starting at $1,000, and the agreement also requires a first-month deposit plus any set up fees before work begins.](https://bookkeeper360.com/pricing/)
- [Categorizes transactions: partial — Categorization is done for you, but the vendor credits its dedicated accountant rather than software, and nothing on the site claims the product categorizes transactions itself or learns from your corrections.](https://bookkeeper360.com/services/bookkeeping/)

### 9. FreshBooks

- [Ledger included: yes — FreshBooks is the ledger itself, with its own chart of accounts and double-entry reports, so no QuickBooks or Xero subscription sits underneath it; double-entry reports start on Plus.](https://www.freshbooks.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against Webgility:**
- [Past your plan’s limits: partial — The published ceiling is billable clients, not transactions: Lite stops at five and Plus at fifty, and you free a slot by deleting a client rather than paying an overage. No transaction or bank-account cap is published.](https://www.freshbooks.com/pricing)
- [Shopify: no — Shopify and Square connections are not documented on the pages read.](https://support.freshbooks.com/hc/en-us)
