Welcome to the Hive. Let a HivePro keep your books.
A HivePro is a professional bookkeeper who handles your books every month inside Bumblebee Books. You send your statements, answer a few questions, and get clear reports, without learning accounting.

How monthly bookkeeping works
The same simple routine every month.
Onboarding
Complete the questionnaire. We review it and confirm your scope with you.
Dropbox statements
Each month you upload your bank and card statements to your shared Dropbox folder.
Conversion
Your HivePro converts the statements into an importable format using a third-party tool.
Import
Converted transactions are imported into your Bumblebee Books account.
Categorization
Every transaction is categorized to keep your books organized.
Clarification
If something is unclear, you get questions to answer so nothing is guessed.
Reconciliation
Your books are reconciled against your statements.
Reporting
You receive clear monthly reports, such as Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet.

Your business, your records
Your Bumblebee Books business account and financial records remain under your business's ownership. HivePro bookkeepers receive authorized access to perform bookkeeping services. When services end, bookkeeper access can be revoked without deleting your financial records.
Built for busy small-business owners
If you'd rather run your business than your books, a HivePro can help.
