Questions
Before you switch.
Is LedgerMCP really a free QuickBooks alternative?
For bookkeeping, yes: as many books as you need, real double-entry, categorization, reconciliation, and every report, free with no trial clock. QuickBooks now offers a free plan too (one user, one bank connection, no accountant access, as of August 2026); its paid plans list from $38/mo per company.
What do the paid plans here add?
Live bank feeds, from $9/mo. The Growth plan ($39/mo) adds the built-in assistant if you would rather not bring your own AI.
Can I import my QuickBooks data?
Yes. Export your transactions from QuickBooks as CSV and hand the file to your AI. Do it before you cancel, while the data is still yours to export.
Doesn’t QuickBooks have AI now too?
Yes. Intuit Assist and other AI features live inside QuickBooks and suggest while you work in their app. Here, the AI you already use does the bookkeeping itself.
What about invoicing and payroll?
LedgerMCP does invoices and bills: a hosted page per invoice with your own payment link, named sales-tax rates, and a sales tax report. It does not do payroll or inventory. If those are why you pay, keep QuickBooks.
Will my accountant accept the books?
Yes. It is standard double-entry: a real journal, a trial balance that always ties, history nobody can edit (a correction is a new entry linked to the old one; nothing is overwritten), lock dates after close, and CSV exports of everything. Many accountants prefer reviewing a ledger that cannot go out of balance.
Keep the books. Drop the subscription.
