Introducing AkMo Books: one cloud workspace for your entire business

Most small businesses we work with run on a patchwork. Billing software at the counter, a spreadsheet for stock, a notebook for staff advances, and a folder of bank statements waiting for the accountant at month-end. Every tool works on its own. Together, they never quite agree.

AkMo Books is our answer: a single cloud workspace where every sale, purchase, payment and salary lands in one set of books — automatically.

Built from the counter up

We started with the busiest moment in a shop’s day: the counter. AkMo Books’ Smart POS is designed for speed — ring up the sale, print on a thermal printer and move to the next customer. When a business customer needs a proper tax invoice, the same screen produces a professional B2B invoice as a one-click PDF.

Every one of those transactions updates stock instantly. Real-time inventory means your stock levels are always current, low-stock alerts arrive before you run out, and you can see at a glance which items are actually driving revenue.

Reconciliation without the dread

Matching bank credits to invoices is the job everyone postpones. In AkMo Books you download your bank statement as a CSV, drop it in, and our reconciliation engine matches inward payments against unpaid invoices. You review the matches instead of hunting for them. (We wrote more about how that works in Reconciling your bank statement in minutes, not days.)

Payroll that remembers

Payroll in a small business is rarely just salary. There are cash advances given mid-month, partial recoveries and adjustments that live in someone’s memory. AkMo Books’ auto-settlement payroll calculates basic pay and HRA and automatically deducts any unrecovered staff advances, so nothing slips through and nobody has to keep a separate register.

Books an accountant will trust

Underneath the friendly screens is a proper double-entry ledger. Every transaction flows into your Cashbook and Bankbook, so your liquidity position is always real — not an estimate reconstructed at year-end. When it is time to file, your accountant starts with clean, complete records.

Security by role, not by trust

A cashier doesn’t need to see payroll. An accountant doesn’t need to change prices. AkMo Books is built on AWS Cognito with strict role-based access control for Admins, Accountants and Cashiers, so each person sees exactly what their job needs.
