How it usually goes
Three vendors. Three bills. No one accountable.
- You rent accounting software and learn it yourself.
- A bookkeeper does data entry — and often misses what a CPA would catch.
- A separate CPA cleans it all up at tax time, for a fee.
- When something's wrong, everyone points at someone else.
How we run it
One firm. One bill. A CPA's name on the result.
- We do the books on software we built — no separate subscription.
- A licensed CPA reviews every set of financials before you see them.
- We're already in your books at tax time — nothing to hand off.
- One team, accountable for the whole outcome.
The straight version
CPA-reviewed bookkeeping from $450/mo. Every transaction categorized, every account reconciled, monthly financial statements delivered, and a licensed U.S. CPA signing off — on software we build and include. No separate QuickBooks subscription. No setup fees. No long-term contract. Tax preparation is quoted separately and discounted for monthly clients.
The wedge
Most bookkeepers can't reconcile a syndication ledger.
We can — it's our specialty. Merchant cash advance and syndication accounting is where generic bookkeeping falls apart: participation across funders, factor income, fees, collections, and revenue recognition that has to be exactly right. We built I&S around getting the hard books right, then brought that same rigor to real estate, eCommerce, and every other business we serve.
- Deal-level syndication ledgers, done correctly
- Revenue recognition in plain language — deferral or accelerated
- CPA-reviewed financials your partners and lenders trust

Our own software
Off-the-shelf software can't track work like ours — so we build our own.
Two tools of our own, both up and running: a dedicated MCA tracker that follows syndication deal by deal — the part of our stack no off-the-shelf product can match — and a bookkeeping engine, live in beta, keeping every client's books current at the source. AI-assisted, always human- and CPA-reviewed.
The bookkeeping engine
LedgerHub™
Books that stay tax-ready all year — not rebuilt every spring.
After years of cleaning up other people's files before filing returns, we built our own platform to do the books for every client we serve — wired straight into where your money moves, capturing each transaction at the source. Now live in beta: financials that come out accurate and tax-ready, instead of reconstructed every spring.
- Connected to banks via Plaid and to Stripe — transactions captured at the source
- Categorization and reconciliation that stay current month to month — no spring cleanup
- Monthly financial statements, CPA-reviewed before they ever reach you
- Log in to your secure client portal to see your books and send invoices — Stripe built in
- One system across every industry we serve — not a single-niche tool
Built for MCA & syndication
McaHawk™
MCA tracked the way it actually works — deal by deal, funder by funder.
Generic accounting forces merchant cash advance into accounts it was never built for. So we built a tool that models the deal itself — participation, fundings, fees, and collections, by funder and by deal — with revenue recognition stated in plain language. The edge no off-the-shelf product can match.
- Deal-level ledgers — participation, fundings, fees & collections, by funder and by deal
- Factor income and revenue recognition in plain language — deferral or accelerated
- Per-deal and per-funder P&L — not one company-wide number that hides the truth
- Syndication reporting your partners and lenders can actually trust

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Merchant cash advance and syndication books involve participation across multiple funders, factor income, fees, commissions, and collections that have to be tracked deal-by-deal. Most bookkeepers have never seen a syndication ledger. It's our specialty — we built our practice around getting it right.
You pay one predictable monthly fee with the accounting software included — no separate subscription to buy. Your tier scales with transaction and deal volume, starting around $450/month. We'll quote you a flat number after a quick look at your books.
No. Software is included in your monthly fee. You get clean books and clear reports without managing another subscription.
No — and we're upfront about it. I&S is an accounting and bookkeeping firm (a registered U.S. LLC), not a state-licensed CPA firm, so we don't issue audits or attestation reports. What you get instead is specialist bookkeeping and tax prep with a licensed U.S. CPA reviewing the financials we deliver — real CPA oversight, without CPA-firm pricing. Need a formal audit or signed attestation? We'll point you to a licensed CPA firm.
We use AI to speed up categorization and routine work so we can move faster and cost less. But every financial deliverable is human- and CPA-reviewed before it reaches you — we never let unreviewed automation touch your numbers. Your data is handled with strict, professional care.
In plain language — deferral or accelerated revenue recognition, depending on the deal — not opaque jargon. We'll explain which method applies to your situation and why, so your financials hold up for partners, lenders, and tax time.
Yes — catch-up and cleanup is one of the most common ways clients start with us. We bring prior months current and reconciled, then keep them clean going forward.
We specialize in MCA/syndication, real estate, eCommerce, service businesses, retail & restaurants, and personal books — working with U.S. clients across multiple states.
