Real Results from Automation

How accounting professionals transformed their practices

"We were spending 25 hours per week on manual statement processing. Now we spend 2 hours per week with StatementConverter. That's 23 hours of billable time we gained back - worth over $2,300 weekly in additional revenue."

Jennifer Walsh, CPA

ROI: 4,680% in first year

"Manual processing was our biggest bottleneck. Clients had to wait days for their statements to be processed. Now it's done in minutes while they wait. We've increased client satisfaction and can handle 3x more clients with the same staff."

Mark Rodriguez

Rodriguez Tax Services, Solo Practitioner

Client capacity: 3x increase

"The accuracy improvement was the biggest surprise. We went from 15% error rates in manual entry to essentially zero errors. No more weekend work fixing mistakes from the week. Our team's stress levels dropped dramatically."
