Common Questions

Answers to the questions CPA and accounting firms ask about responsibility transfer.

Is this outsourcing overseas?

No. Our team is US-based and every engagement is reviewed and signed off by a licensed US CPA before it reaches you. We own quality control and operational execution end to end.

Will my clients know I'm using Autonomi Books?

No. All deliverables are white-labeled with your firm's branding. Your clients see your logo, your formatting, your standards. They experience this as work done by your firm, because you own the relationship and approve everything before it goes out.

How is this different from bookkeeping software?

Software organizes work you still have to do. We do the work. You're not getting a better tool. You're offloading operational ownership. Your role shifts from execution to review and approval.

What if Autonomi Books makes a mistake?

We own the work, so we own corrections. If something is wrong, we fix it. That's what responsibility transfer means. However, you always have final review. Nothing goes to your client without your approval.

Can I start with just one client?

Yes. We recommend it. Start with one client in the free test, verify quality and fit, then expand at your own pace. Most firms add 1-3 clients per month after converting.

What's the catch?

We're intentionally narrow. This works extremely well for CPA and accounting firms that already do bookkeeping and want to offload operations. It doesn't work for tax-only firms, firms that market bookkeeping as their differentiator, or firms seeking tools to do the work themselves. If you're unsure, the free test provides clarity.

Is our client data secure?

Yes. Autonomi Books has completed a SOC 2 Type II audit by an independent auditor, covering security, availability, and confidentiality, with no exceptions noted. Client data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and access is limited to authorized personnel. The full audit report is available to your firm upon request.
