How RocketBooks Works

Autonomous bookkeeping that runs in the background while you focus on growing your business

The Simple Truth About RocketBooks

We're not just software that helps you do bookkeeping. We ARE your bookkeeper.

What We're NOT

  • Software that makes you do the work
  • A tool that requires accounting knowledge
  • An app that needs daily logins

What We ARE

  • An AI bookkeeper that does the work for you
  • A service that speaks plain English
  • A system that works 24/7 without you

The Core Principle

You tell us about your business in plain English. We handle all the accounting complexity behind the scenes. Your books stay clean, compliant, and tax-ready automatically.

The Complete Process

From setup to ongoing maintenance, here's exactly how RocketBooks works

1

Connect Your Financial Accounts

Link your bank accounts, credit cards, payment processors (Stripe, PayPal, etc.), and any other financial accounts. We use bank-level encryption and are SOC 2 compliant.

  • Bank accounts
  • Credit cards
  • Payment processors
  • Invoicing platforms

We Build Your Accounting Structure

This is where we're fundamentally different. You don't set up asset accounts, liability schedules, or chart of accounts. Just tell us about your business, and we create the entire structure automatically.

Examples:

  • "I bought a computer for $2,890"
  • "I bought equipment for $50k"
  • "I took out a $200k business loan"
  • "I own a piece of real estate"

We create all the assets, depreciation rules, journal entries, and balance sheet mappings automatically.

3

Daily Transaction Processing

Every day, we download your transactions, categorize them intelligently, and update your books. Unlike QuickBooks, our AI understands context and learns your business patterns.

Auto-sync

Transactions download automatically

Smart categorization

AI learns your business patterns

Books updated

Records stay current automatically

"Who was at this meal?"

We ask about deductible expenses to keep records IRS-compliant

"Is this personal or business?"

We clarify ambiguous transactions before categorizing

"What's the business purpose?"

We ensure documentation is complete for audits

4

We Reach Out When We Need Clarification

This is the magic moment. When we encounter something that needs your input, we proactively reach out. Simple questions in plain English. No accounting jargon. Just quick clarifications that keep your books accurate and compliant.

QuickBooks never does this.

Traditional software waits for you to log in. We actively maintain your books and only interrupt when absolutely necessary.

5

Continuous Compliance & Cleanup

We don't just categorize. We actively prevent errors, monitor for anomalies, and keep your books audit-ready. No duplicate accounts. No missing documentation. No year-end surprises.

  • IRS compliance monitoring
  • Automatic error prevention
  • Anomaly detection
  • Complete documentation
