ClaryBook for CPAs & Tax Professionals

Help your clients focus on the business — not the bookkeeping.

Most rental owners didn't get into real estate to track receipts. They got into it to build wealth. ClaryBook gives them the simplest possible way to keep clean books year-round — they text receipts, you pull a clean Schedule E in January. They breathe easier. You reclaim hours of cleanup work.

15 minutes. We walk through a real client file — no slides.

If you've prepped a 1040 with rental income, you've seen this:

The bookkeeping your clients didn't sign up for is the bookkeeping you inherit.

Three changes for your client. One change for you.

ClaryBook turns the worst three months of your client's year into a non-event. By the time you sit down with their books, the data is already organized.

1

Your client texts a receipt. ClaryBook files it.

Vendor, amount, date, and category extracted in seconds — and slotted under the right Schedule E line. No app to learn, no spreadsheet to maintain. Whether they prefer iPhone, web, or Telegram, the receipt lands in the same place.

Mileage, hours, and rent — all just text.

"Drove 88 miles to Sawyer." Logged at the 2026 IRS rate. "Logged 6 hours of repairs at the duplex." Tracked toward the 500-hour material-participation threshold. The audit-ready logs build themselves while your client lives their life.

You sign in as a viewer. You pull a clean tax package.

Your client invites you to their books with read-only access. You see the full dashboard, every transaction with its source receipt, per-property P&L, the Schedule E worksheet pre-mapped to IRS lines, and a one-click ZIP of every receipt for the year. No follow-up emails about the $450 charge.

A bookkeeping habit they'll actually keep.

If you recommend ClaryBook to a Schedule-E client, here's what changes for them — and indirectly, for you.

What your client gets Why it matters
A way to keep books that takes 5 seconds per receiptThey actually do it. Clean books year-round, not just in March. The 95% who would never open accounting software still send a text.
Peace of mind heading into tax seasonTheir data is already organized. April stops being the month they dread, and that calm shows up in your meetings.
Hours back on their actual businessFewer evenings sorting receipts. More energy for the work that grows their portfolio — which is the work they came to you to advise on.
A real audit trailIf the IRS asks, the receipt is one click from the transaction. Every entry timestamped and sourced. You inherit a clean defense, not a paper trail to reconstruct.

If it fits your practice: we offer the first cohort of CPAs a 10% recurring referral on any client who signs up via your introduction. We handle commission tracking and payout manually for now — automated tracking via Stripe Connect is on the roadmap. The offer stands either way; no exclusivity, no quotas, no fee to join.

We add partners by conversation, not signup form. The demo is the introduction.

Things CPAs ask in the demo

How does ClaryBook handle depreciation?
Each property has a depreciation schedule with basis, in-service date, and method. Monthly depreciation entries hit the ledger automatically. The Schedule E export shows the year's depreciation per property pre-filled. You stay in control of cost-segregation studies and §179 elections — those still flow through your prep workflow.
What if my client already uses QuickBooks or Stessa?
Most CPAs we talk to keep QBO for their S-corp and operating-business clients, and find Stessa is built for the landlord but doesn't actually do the bookkeeping. ClaryBook fits the gap: the same Schedule-E client your client won't maintain in QBO, but where Stessa leaves you doing the categorization. The three coexist.
How does my client invite me to their books?
From the team-settings page in their ClaryBook account, they invite you by email with a `viewer` role. You get full read-only access to the dashboard, every export, every receipt, and the audit trail. They keep ownership and can remove you any time.
How is the 10% referral paid?
Manually for the first cohort — ACH or PayPal, monthly. Stripe Connect to automate payouts is on the roadmap; we'll wire it once we have ~10 partners through. The 10% offer applies the same way either way, for the lifetime of the customer.
Can I white-label the product so my firm's brand is on the exports?
Today, no. When your client invites you to their books, they see the ClaryBook brand and so do you. Co-branded exports with your firm's logo and a partner-portal with your branding are on the roadmap. If white-label is a hard requirement, mention it in the demo and we'll see if we can move it up.

Try it on a real client file.

Bring a Schedule E client whose books are currently a mess. We'll walk through what the same data looks like once it's been running through ClaryBook for a year. Fifteen minutes, no slides.
