Spreadsheets are cheaper and they are already working. Ashgrove pays back only if your close is costing more than four billable days a month.

Priced per client book, not per seat

Every plan includes unlimited users, because charging a four-person practice four times for the same close is how software loses advisory firms.

Results from three practices

“Our month-end close went from 11 days to 3. I moved 14 client entities onto Ashgrove over one weekend and did not lose a single reconciliation.”

Managing Partner, Meridian Advisory, Austin TX

“We bill 62 retainer clients a month. Invoicing used to take two people three days. Ashgrove now posts them on the 1st before I get in.”

Finance Director, Ridgeway Partners, Chicago IL

“Auto-matching handles 94% of our 41,000 monthly transactions. My team reviews the other 6% and we finish reconciliation before lunch.”

What happens to your clients’ data

Ashgrove holds ledgers for regulated practices, so the controls below are audited rather than described.

Ashgrove holds ledgers for regulated practices, so the controls below are audited rather than described.

SOC 2 Type II

Audited every 12 months. The full report is available under NDA before you sign.

Encrypted end to end

AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Bank credentials are tokenised and never stored.

Choose your region

Data stays in the US or the EU, whichever you pick at signup. It does not move after that.

Leave with everything

Full CSV and journal export on demand, on every plan, including during a trial.

The six questions partners actually ask

If yours is not here, email us and a human answers inside one business day.

$189 a month covers up to 40 books on the Practice plan. Past 40 you move to Firm at $549 a month for unlimited books, and that is the last price change. There is no per-seat charge at any tier, so adding staff during busy season costs nothing.

Move your first client this week

Import a trial balance, connect the bank feed and run one close. Most firms have their first client live inside four days.
