Virtual bookkeeping assistants and US-certified CPA professionals from LATAM and India, matched to what your books actually need: built for manufacturing, retail, SaaS, and fractional CFO firms. Remote, dedicated, and part of your team from week one.
"Our books are a mess. I don't know what's reconciled, what's not, or if the numbers I'm even looking at are accurate. And until that's fixed, there's no way to answer the bigger question: are we actually making money?"
Sound familiar? You're not alone. Whether it's a reconciliation backlog, a bookkeeper who's behind, or books that are technically "done" but nobody fully trusts: we hear this constantly. And we built our model around fixing the books first, then answering what they actually mean.
Every client starts in a different place. Some know exactly what they need: someone to own reconciliations, AP, payroll coordination, and the monthly close. That's a bookkeeper, and it's most of what we place. We staff that role every day, and we staff it well.
Others come to us thinking that's the fix, when what's actually breaking down, cost per location, margins by product line, revenue that needs to be recognized correctly, calls for a CPA-certified professional instead: US-certified, ready to interpret the numbers, not just record them.
We don't default to the bigger placement to make a bigger sale. We ask first, then place the role the problem actually calls for.
Right-sized expertise, either way. Backed by a guarantee that costs you nothing to test.
Here's what that looked like for one client who needed both, at different points.
Every business uses different words for the same need. You may have searched for any of these:
You don't have to know which one you need before you call us. That's our job. We listen to what's actually happening in your business: then we tell you exactly who would solve it, and whether that's part-time or full-time. Not every business needs a full-time bookkeeper or CPA from day one, and we'd rather scope it right than scope it big.
Ranges above reflect full-time. Ranges vary by experience, scope, and hours, part-time or full-time. Just tell us what's not working, we'll figure out the right fit together.
Bookkeeping and accounting aren't done the way they were even two years ago. Our bookkeepers and CPA-certified professionals use AI daily, to categorize transactions faster, flag anomalies before they become problems, and do the first pass on reconciliations. AI speeds up the routine work. A person still reviews and owns every number that reaches you.
We picked them because they produce disciplined, well-trained accounting and finance professionals who happen to work in a timezone or with an outsourcing culture built for U.S. business.
From our first conversation to your candidate's first day: start to finish in two weeks.
A client running 5 gas stations, 7 pizza stores, and their own store construction came to us needing the basics: reconciliations, credit card payments, monthly closes. We placed a bookkeeper, and that was exactly the right fit for that stage. A month in, they asked a bigger question: "Are we even profitable, location by location?" That wasn't a bookkeeping question anymore.
They hesitated, worried about cost, and about trusting an offshore CPA with numbers this sensitive. The 30-day guarantee is what got them to take the interview. Three months later, they know their numbers cold, at a fraction of what their outside CPA firm charged hourly.

Most staffing companies offer a replacement guarantee, 90 days, sometimes 180. That sounds generous, but read it closely: if the placement doesn't work out, they send you someone new. You already paid for the first one. You're back at day one, just with a different person and the clock reset.
We do it differently. If within the first 30 days the person isn't the right fit, for any reason, we don't send an invoice at all. Not a credit. Not a discount on the next one. No bill. The financial risk of a wrong fit is ours, not yours.
We can offer that because our own accounting lead personally screens every candidate before they reach you. We don't guess. We vet. And when we're confident enough to put our name on a placement, we're confident enough to eat the cost if we're wrong.
You take the interview. We take the risk, in full.Straightforward answers about bookkeepers, CPAs, and remote accounting support for U.S. businesses.
A virtual assistant for bookkeeping handles the day-to-day work: invoicing, reconciliations, expense categorization, and reporting. A CPA interprets that data, advises on tax strategy, and signs off on official filings. Most businesses need the bookkeeper first and bring in CPA-level support once the books are clean enough to act on.
Invoicing and accounts receivable, bill payments, expense entry, bank and credit card reconciliations, payroll coordination, and monthly financial reporting. Each placement is matched to the software you already use, so nobody's learning QuickBooks or Xero on your clock.
Fully online. Our online bookkeepers work your time zone and inside your existing tools from day one, so there's no relocation, no local search, and no compromise on communication. Whether you hire bookkeeper online for five hours a week or bring someone on full-time, the setup stays the same.
Not in the way that term usually gets used. Most offshore bookkeepers come through a faceless outsourcing pipeline with little oversight. Ours are individually screened by our own accounting lead, matched to your specific tools and industry, and backed by a zero-invoice guarantee if the fit is wrong. Same time zone overlap, same accountability you'd expect from an in-house hire.
No. Most remote bookkeepers companies hand you a resume and disappear. We built Simpalm to be the remote bookkeepers company we'd want to hire from ourselves: every candidate screened by our own accounting lead, matched to your books before you meet them, and if the placement isn't right in the first 30 days, you never see an invoice. It's remote bookkeepers services with a real person accountable for the outcome.
Either. Whether you need a few hours a month for fractional reconciliations or a full-time hire across AP, AR, and reporting, we tailor the hours to your actual transaction volume rather than a fixed package.
No long forms. Just a conversation about what's breaking down, and who would actually fix it.
