LedgerHawk reads the bill, explains the vendor, picks the account from your chart of accounts, builds the prepaid schedule and writes every journal entry, ready for QuickBooks.
No templates to set up. The hawk reads it, you check it, then you post it.

FAQ
Good questions
Is LedgerHawk free?
Yes. It's a free beta while we make it sharper with feedback from bookkeepers.
Is my bill stored anywhere?
Not on this site. The bill is sent to Google's Gemini AI so it can be read. On the free AI tier Google may use content to improve its products, so please use sample or anonymized bills for now.
Does it post to QuickBooks for me?
Not directly. You get a QBO journal import CSV and an Excel file. Most bookkeepers enter the bill in QBO as a normal Bill coded to Prepaid Expenses, then import only the monthly amortization entries.
How does it decide expense vs capitalize?
It uses the IRS de minimis safe harbor: items up to $2,500 each (or $5,000 with audited financial statements) can be expensed. You can set your own limit instead. Your CPA always has the final say.
Can I change what the AI picked?
Yes. Every field is editable, and the schedule and journal entries recalculate as you type.
