Answer three questions. Get a planning range. Catch-up here is AI-assisted cleanup — priced like our monthly plans, not a $125/hour reconstruction.

This is a larger catch-up. We usually phase it so you get current reports before the whole backlog is finished.
Cleanup without a monthly rhythm just resets the problem.
Not a bid — and not an hourly-firm cleanup. We automate most of the backlog, then a person reviews it. We’ll lock a number on a 10-minute call before any work starts.
We’ll call within one business day to lock a firm quote.
Catch-up is not a monthly plan prepaid, and it is not a week of $125/hour reconstruction. Software does most of the categorization; a person reviews the odd cases and reconciles. That’s why a year behind usually lands closer to one to two months of a plan — not six thousand dollars.
Once the backlog is gone, most clients move to monthly bookkeeping so it doesn’t pile up again. Published plans — Starter $249, Standard $399, Growth $599 — with a real person at (901) 673-8119.
No — it’s a planning range for AI-assisted catch-up, not a traditional hourly cleanup. We confirm a firm number on a short call, before any work starts. No surprise invoices.
Lighter backlogs often take one to two weeks after we have access. A year or more is usually phased so you get usable books first.
Categorizing the backlog, reconciling bank and cards, cleaning obvious duplicates and miscodes, and a current P&L and Balance Sheet. Payroll setup and tax filing are not included.
