Our Story
Why we built an accounting tool we actually want to use.
Years of self-employment
As a self-employed person in Switzerland, you quickly learn: bookkeeping is mandatory. So I did what everyone does – an Excel sheet, a simple tool, getting by somehow. The problem? I never had a real overview. Income here, expenses there, VAT somewhere in between. At the end of every year, I sat there wondering: where do I actually stand financially?
The expensive alternatives
So I looked at the 'proper' accounting tools. Bexio, Abacus, Klara – the big names. What I found: hundreds of features I'd never use. Complicated interfaces built for accountants. And prices that are simply too high for a sole proprietorship. I wanted to write invoices and understand my finances – not start a degree in double-entry bookkeeping.
The idea
At some point I thought: why doesn't anyone build this the way I need it? Simple. Affordable. For people like me – freelancers, tradespeople, consultants, creatives. Not an overloaded enterprise tool, but something you understand in 5 minutes. So I started building it myself.
How einzly was born
einzly is not a ledger. It's a cockpit for your business. You see at a glance what's coming in and going out. You create invoices with QR codes in seconds. You do your year-end closing without an accountant. All for CHF 15 per month – less than lunch in Zurich.
Your tool, your rules
We built einzly to adapt to you – not the other way around. Have a feature request? We can build it. No astronomical costs, no months of waiting. A small monthly surcharge, and your tool does exactly what you need.
The tool must adapt to you – not you to the tool.
Our vision
Every self-employed person in Switzerland deserves a tool that works with them – not against them. Affordable, understandable, and made for everyday use.
