Accounting software was yesterday — why einzly is more than a tool

01The problem with off-the-shelf software

The big accounting programs — whether bexio, Banana, or others — develop for thousands of users at once. That means: features are built using a one-size-fits-all approach. What the majority needs gets built. What your specific business needs? Tough luck.

Got a concern? Submit a support ticket. Wait three days for a reply. Get a standard response. Your feature request ends up on a roadmap nobody can see. Maybe it'll come in six months. Maybe never.

02Service instead of software — our approach

At einzly, there's no call center, no ticket queue, no automated standard responses. When you write to us, a human answers — specifically, the one who wrote the code.

This isn't a marketing promise, it's our business model. We're deliberately not a company with 200 employees and 50,000 customers. We're a small team that has time for every single customer.

• Direct line to the developer — no first-level support copying text templates
• Answers in hours, not days — because we know accounting is time-sensitive
• Your feedback flows directly in — not into a backlog, but into the next release

03Agile development — new features in days, not months

Large software companies plan in quarters. A new feature goes through committees, specifications, QA cycles, and release calendars. By the time it reaches the customer, months have passed.

At einzly, things work differently. If a customer has a good idea on Monday, the feature can be live by Wednesday. Not because we're sloppy, but because we have lean processes and can implement directly.

This is only possible because we deliberately avoid bureaucracy. No feature board with 200 open requests. No meetings about meetings. Instead: listen, understand, implement.

04Every business is different

A photographer needs different functions than a lawyer. A coach invoices differently than a tradesperson. Yet with most providers, everyone gets the same software — with the same fields, the same reports, and the same limitations.

einzly is built differently. If you need a feature that doesn't exist yet, we build it. Not in an enterprise version for CHF 99 per month, but as part of your existing plan. Because we believe good software adapts to the customer — not the other way around.

05Built modern — no legacy baggage

Many accounting programs in Switzerland are based on technology from 2010 or older. They were built for desktop and then ported to the web at some point. You can tell: slow load times, clunky operation, no mobile access.

einzly was built from scratch in 2025 — with a modern tech stack, as a Progressive Web App, for mobile and desktop simultaneously. No installation needed, no updates to install manually. Just open and go.

• Progressive Web App — installable on any device, no App Store needed
• Automatic Swiss QR invoices following the latest standard
• AI receipt scanner with Claude Vision — receipts captured in 2 seconds
• Automatic exchange rate calculation for foreign currencies
• Four languages from day 1: German, English, French, Italian

06Who is einzly made for?

einzly is for Swiss self-employed professionals and sole proprietorships who don't want to deal with bloated software. For people who want a solution that simply works — and who know they can reach out to someone directly with questions.

Whether freelancer, photographer, tradesperson, or coach — if you need a simple income and expense report and value personal service, you're in the right place.

07Conclusion: Anyone can buy software — service is different

There are dozens of accounting programs for self-employed people in Switzerland. Most can create invoices and record expenses. The difference isn't in the features — it's in how they treat you as a customer.

With einzly, you don't just get software, you get a partner. Someone who listens, acts quickly, and makes your accounting your tool — not another problem.
