What are accounts receivable and accounts payable?

Simply put, accounts receivable is the money your customers owe you for sales you've made but haven't yet received. Accounts payable is the money you owe to your suppliers or vendors for bills you haven't paid yet. Keeping track of both helps you understand how cash flows in and out of your business, so you can manage your money better.

The price of financial chaos

Beyond software subscriptions and vendor invoices, the true cost of a disconnected back office is paid in your most valuable assets: your time, your focus, and your peace of mind.

DIY route

You’ve become your own after-hours accountant, wrestling with software like QuickBooks and spreadsheets, left guessing about tax deductions and fearing a costly IRS audit.

The result: You’re spending your most valuable hours on frustrating administrative work instead of growing your business.

Outsourced patchwork headache

You hired separate pros for books, payroll, and taxes, only to become the project manager. Now you’re stuck managing their data disconnects, surprise tax bills, and costly invoices to fix their errors.

The result: You’re paying for three separate services that require a fourth person to manage them: you.

The Counto way

We replace the chaos with a single, unified system designed for total clarity and control. This is what an all-in-one financial back office looks like.
