Plainbook

An accounting practice in Brisbane. Four people share one office, and staff files never leave it.

The Plainbook office at midday: oak desks, tall sash windows and a round meeting table, nobody in yet

Look sharp.

A calm site for a calm practice, built from scratch. On the homepage you tip out a shoebox and the receipts sort themselves into the books.

One client's shoebox, from the paper pile to the books.

PlainbookThursday, 8:30 am

A short silent film. Sarah tips out the shoebox of Marco's Deli. Receipts from Hartley's Produce, West End Fuel and Coastal Packaging are read and posted to the books with the photo attached. A payslip is turned away from the online books and processed on the office Mac; only the wages total is posted. The September bank statement is missing, and a reminder is drafted and waits for Sarah.
