Why Slate

Every new client used to mean more hours, more hires, and more risk. Slate changes the math. Your team reviews instead of keying - so the firm grows on margin, not headcount.

Categorization, document matching, payout splits, escalations - the work that fills your team’s day gets handled automatically. Your people make the calls. Slate does the rest.

How it works

From bank feed to approved books in three steps.

Slate fits the workflow your team already follows - it just does the heavy lifting first.

01 · CONNECT

Connect QuickBooks in one click

Link a client with a secure sign-in. Slate pulls the bank feed and chart of accounts in seconds - no setup, no spreadsheets.

Secure sign-in · credentials never stored
02 · REVIEW

Open a clean, sorted queue

Every transaction arrives categorized and ranked by confidence. The clear ones are done - your team only looks at what genuinely needs a second opinion.

Reasoning visible on every row
03 · APPROVE

Approve and move on

Confirm in a click, or fix one and Slate remembers it for next time. Approved entries flow straight into QuickBooks.

Fix it once, never again
The review queue

See the six that matter, not the two hundred that don’t.

Slate clears the routine and surfaces only what needs you - color-coded by confidence, with the reasoning right there. Approving is a glance, not an investigation.

Confidence tiers. Green is clear, amber is a judgment call, red needs you. Sort, filter, and clear the queue from the top down.
The “why” on every row. See exactly why each category was chosen, so your team can confirm with confidence - not guesswork.
Gets smarter as you go. Correct it once and Slate applies it going forward - for that client, vendor, and account.

Contract Labor - J. Rivera✓ saved as rule

Slate now recognizes this Venmo recipient as a contractor - future payments route straight through.

Control & autonomy

You decide how much Slate does on its own.

Start with everything routed to your team for review. Hand off more only when you’re ready - never before.

Auto-commit confidence threshold- off -
EVERYTHING → HUMAN REVIEW

Monitor Mode sends every transaction to your team for review. Nothing reaches QuickBooks without a click - the default, and the safe place to start.

Progressive Mode opens up once your firm is consistently approving Slate’s work.
Autonomy modes

From full oversight to selective autopilot - on your terms.

MMonitor Mode (default). Everything waits for your team. Slate suggests, you approve. Nothing slips through.
PProgressive Mode. Let the clear, high-confidence transactions go through on their own, so your team focuses on the rest.
One simple dial. Set the confidence line for what goes through automatically. Move it as your comfort grows.
Rule engine

Set a rule once, in plain English.

Some things should never be a judgment call. Type a rule the way you’d say it out loud - Slate turns it into hard logic that always wins.

Route and escalate.“Anything over $5,000 comes to me.” Rules can categorize, route, or hold a transaction for the right person.
Per-client, per-vendor. Rules scope to a single client or apply across the firm - your call.

QuickBooks OnlineSECURE · YOU APPROVE

Slate reads the bank feed and chart of accounts, then writes approved entries back - never silently, never without your sign-off.

S

Shopify PayoutsAUTO-DECOMPOSED

A single Shopify deposit hides gross sales, processing fees, and refunds. Slate splits each payout into its parts before categorizing - so the books are right, not just balanced.

Google DriveDOCS AUTO-MATCHED

Drop receipts, invoices, and statements into a connected folder. Slate reads each one and matches it to the right transaction - no hunting for the paperwork.

For the firm

Partners see every client. Staff see only theirs.

One dashboard gives partners the whole book of business at a glance - what needs attention, what’s healthy, and how each client is trending. Your team gets a focused view of just their clients.

Exception counts at a glance. Know which clients need attention before the client calls you.
Connection health. Spot a broken bank feed or expired QuickBooks token instantly.
Role-based access. Assignments control who sees what - clean separation between firm-wide and per-person views.

Trust & data

A human always has the last word.

Your clients trust you with their numbers. Here’s how Slate earns that same trust.

You approve everything

Nothing reaches QuickBooks without your approval. A person always confirms before anything posts.

Secure sign-in

We connect through QuickBooks' own secure sign-in. We never see or store your clients' login credentials.

Full audit trail

Every proposal, correction, and approval is logged - who did what, when, and the reasoning behind each call.

Scoped access

Role-based permissions mean staff only ever touch the clients they're assigned. Partners see the firm.
