Everything in one place
Bookings that fill themselves
Services, hours and a public booking page. Email and text reminders, two-way Google Calendar sync, and an appointment becomes an invoice in one tap.
Invoices and getting paid
Estimates, invoices and recurring billing with a pay page for card and bank payments, deposits and autopay. Overdue reminders go out on their own.
Books that keep themselves
Bank and card feeds with suggested categories, rules that learn, matching to invoices and payouts, and monthly reconciliation. A chart of accounts already mapped to Schedule C.
Receipts, mileage and 1099s
Snap a receipt and RiverBooks reads it. Log trips, set up the home office deduction, collect W-9s and prepare 1099-NEC forms for contractors.
Federal taxes without surprises
A running estimate of income and self-employment tax, quarterly 1040-ES amounts with safe-harbor math, and a Schedule C worksheet for your preparer.
Washington excise, prepared
Sales tax by the Department of Revenue location code of each job, B&O by classification, and a combined excise return built from your books, ready to file in My DOR.
Ask River
Ask about your business in plain English and get answers that link to the invoices and accounts behind them. River drafts, you approve: it never changes your books on its own.
Room for your accountant
Invite your bookkeeper or CPA with accountant access, and see all your clients in one place if you are the accountant.
You stay in charge
Nothing moves money or files anything without your OK. Suggestions are suggestions until you confirm them, every change is recorded in an audit log, and you can export your books whenever you like.
Who it's for
Sole proprietors and single-member LLCs that file Schedule C: trades, cleaners, consultants, stylists, photographers, tutors, therapists in private practice, and makers who collect sales tax. RiverBooks' state tax features cover Washington today. It isn't built for payroll, S corporations or partnerships.
