What we found — independently

Researched by AIBM, not supplied by the vendor. The vendor has not been involved in this page at all.

Our pricing check · 2026Annual billing only: Lite about $129/mo (monthly done-for-you bookkeeping + quarterly tax estimates; annual tax filing NOT included β€” a ~$750 one-off), Essential ~$169/mo (adds personal tax prep and filing), Premium ~$255/mo (S-Corps and group practice…
What will cost you money if you skim itMind the fine print between tiers: the entry plan does not include your annual tax filing (a ~$750 one-off on Lite), it is annual billing only, and messy back-months cost extra as catch-up fees.

Cost-trap flags — each with its evidence

🧩 Add-ons extra — Key features are paid add-ons on top of the plan
“Payroll is an add-on at $39/mo + $6/person; catch-up bookkeeping runs ~$99/month.”
πŸ“… Annual commit — Best price (or any price) requires an annual/quarterly commitment

Genuinely good for

therapists and health-and-wellness practice owners β€” SLPs, dieticians, chiropractors, audiologists, coaches, massage and physical therapists β€” who want books, quarterly estimates and filing handled by specialists who know their niche

Skip it if

you are comfortable doing your own books in a general tool at a fraction of the price, or your business sits outside the health-and-wellness practice niche

The honest comparisonBench or a local CPA — Bench wins on general small-business bookkeeping breadth, a good local CPA on complex situations; Heard wins on therapy-practice specialization and S-corp guidance

Work at Heard? This page is yours the moment you claim it.

Write your own description and it appears at the top of this page, in your words, free β€” no fee during beta and no strings. What does not change: our research stays exactly where it is, underneath, and you cannot edit it. That is the point of the page. Two honest caveats before you bother: our audience is still modest and growing, and the outbound link is nofollow ugc, so this is not an SEO play.

We have pre-filled the name, site and category we already have on file, so the only thing left to write is the description. A claimed page also drops the noindex we keep on research-only pages.
