The statement
your accountant asked for.
Profit and loss, balance sheet, and whatever else you need, built from the records already in your books and exported in a format anyone can open.
Free plan, no credit card, and your reports are generated on your own computer.
Argo Books
Three steps to a finished report
A report is only worth having if producing it does not take longer than reading it.
Pick the report
Profit and loss, balance sheet, expense summary, or a layout you build yourself.
Set the period
A month, a quarter, a financial year, or any range you choose.
Export and send it
PDF for reading, spreadsheet for working with. Both come out ready to hand over.
Build the report you actually need
The standard statements cover what an accountant asks for. The builder covers everything else: group by customer, by category or by period, filter to the part you care about, and save the layout so next quarter takes one click.
- Profit and loss and balance sheet out of the box
- Custom layouts you can save and reuse
- Export to PDF or spreadsheet
Produce your first statement in minutes
No account, no credit card, and no accounting knowledge needed.
What changes when reports are one click
Year end stops being a project
When the statement takes a minute to produce, handing something over to an accountant is not a week of preparation.
The figures come from the records
Reports are generated from your actual transactions, so there is no re-keying step to get wrong.
You can answer your own questions
Group and filter the way you think about the business rather than the way a fixed template does.
Periods are comparable
Run the same report across quarters and the change is visible instead of inferred.
Your books stay on your computer
Argo Books is a desktop application, not a cloud service holding your finances on someone else's server. Your records are written to your own machine, and you can back them up or move them like any other file.
- Records and documents stored locally
- No third-party cloud storage of your financial data
- Your data moves and backs up like any other file
Built for the way you actually work
Freelancers
A profit and loss for the year without paying someone to assemble it.
Retail and e-commerce
Margin and category reporting across a lot of transactions.
Service businesses
Profitability by job or customer, not just overall.
Anyone with an accountant
Hand over a statement in a format they can work with immediately.
