Digits alternative
Run 3 companies for $198, not Digits' $300.
Digits bills every company on its own and gives agents read-only access. Accountable puts your companies on one bill, closes by the 1st, and lets your agent fix the books with your approval.
Accountable and Digits, side by side
Facts and list prices checked Sep 2026.
Price for 1 company
Accountable: $0 on Free (100 transactions categorized automatically a month), or $149 a month on Pro.
Digits: $100 a month on Core, or $65 on Essentials. Pro at $250 is marked 'coming soon'.
Price for 3 companies
Accountable: $198 a month on Pro: $149 covers 2 companies, and the third costs $49.
Digits: $300 a month on Core, or $195 on Essentials.
How companies are billed
Accountable: One bill for the whole workspace. Pro includes 2 companies and charges $49 for each extra one. Holding costs $399 for 10 companies and $29 for each extra one. Users are unlimited, and your accountant's seat is always free.
Digits: Each business needs its own subscription. Users are unlimited. There is no combined view across companies.
AI agent access (MCP)
Accountable: Read-only on Free. Read and write on Pro: every write shows a preview, is logged and can be undone, and big changes wait for a person to approve them.
Digits: Read-only on every plan. The MCP has 10 tools, sees one company per connection, and cannot change anything in the books.
Month-end close
Accountable: The month closes on the 1st: reconciled to the bank, reviewed, locked and reported. New transactions from Mercury, Brex, Ramp and Stripe post within minutes.
Digits: A close checklist (Book, Reconcile, Report). Our own two companies on Digits waited weeks after month-end for a close.
Moving your books in
Accountable: Free for everyone. The agent moves your full history and ties every month-end to the cent, then sends you a tie-out report.
Digits: Imports from QuickBooks Online with a cutover date, plus guides for Xero and Puzzle and for running both side by side.
Support
Accountable: The AI accountant answers in seconds. On Pro, a person replies the same business day. There are no sales calls.
Digits: Email and a support form for businesses. Account managers go to partner accounting firms. Digits stopped selling its own bookkeeping service in May 2025.
Export
Accountable: Export any time, on every plan, as PDF, Excel or CSV, or as a one-click financial package. Export is never behind a paywall.
Digits: PDF, Excel and CSV downloads, plus a financial package with the ledger, trial balance, statements and aging.
Free plan or trial
Accountable: Free plan for 1 company, with 100 transactions categorized automatically a month. A 14-day Pro trial needs no card.
Digits: A 30-day free trial on every plan. There is no free plan.
Choose Accountable if
- Your agent can fix the books, not only read them. On Pro, Accountable's MCP can categorize, post entries and propose a close, and big changes wait for your approval.
- You pay one bill for every company. Pro covers 2 companies for $149 and charges $49 for each extra one, while Digits charges each business its own subscription.
- The month closes by the 1st, reconciled and locked. Our own two companies waited weeks for their Digits close.
- The move is free and the agent does it. It reads Digits through Digits' own MCP, rebuilds every month and ties each month-end to the cent.
Choose Digits if
- You run one company and want the lowest paid price. Digits Essentials costs $65 a month, and our Pro plan costs $149.

Questions about switching from Digits
I pay Digits a legacy price. How much would I save?
Digits' service-era plans ran $350 to $550 or more per company a month. On Accountable, 3 companies cost $198 a month on Pro, and 10 companies cost $399 on Holding.
Will moving change anything in Digits?
No. The agent reads Digits through Digits' MCP, which has one scope: Ledger Read. It cannot create, change or delete anything in Digits.
What should I check before I cancel Digits?
Read your Digits contract. Digits' terms let either side end the contract with 30 days' written notice, and fees for the rest of the term become due when it ends.
Can my accountant work in Accountable?
Yes. The accountant seat is free on every plan, and your accountant sees the same books, reports and audit log you do.
