The product · Accounting & client money

A real double-entry ledger, and client money that ties three ways.

The firm's books, the client account ring-fenced from them, a compliance pack that runs deterministic checks, and every list exportable.

In the application: Accounting · Trust · Compliance pack

One double-entry ledger under everything
Billing, trust, expenses and the books post balanced journal entries into the same engine. There is no second set of numbers to reconcile the first against, because there is no second set.
Client money, ring-fenced
Trust funds sit in their own accounts, tied three ways — the recorded client-bank balance, the sum of the matter sub-ledger, and the client-funds-held liability — per currency, never summed across them. Overdrawn matters are flagged as they happen.
The reports a firm actually files
Trial balance, profit and loss, balance sheet, aged debtors and the client-account reports, grouped and ranged off the same journal lines rather than assembled in a spreadsheet beside the system.
Bank statements read, not retyped
Export the statement from your own bank portal and upload it. The lines are read and matched against the ledger instead of being keyed in twice.
A compliance pack that is not a guess
Every check runs as a deterministic query over the ledger for one period, and the outcome of every check is recorded — passes included — with a finding row per exception and a partner's override kept beside the exception it overrode. Nothing here is a language model.
Export anything you can see
Any list or report the product serves comes out as CSV, scoped to exactly what the screen it mirrors would show you — so an unanticipated question is a download rather than a support request.

What this does not do

The boundary, from us rather than from your first week.

  • Matterly never holds or moves client money. It stays in your own designated client account; the product records and reconciles it, and moves none of it.
  • There is no bank feed. Statement import reads a file you exported yourself — nothing connects to a bank or holds a banking credential — and a three-way tie compares three of your own figures with each other, which is necessary for the books to be right without being sufficient to show the cash is there.
