Custom integrations and ops engineering, from your accounting firm
We're the accounting firm that also writes software. Custom integrations, workflow automation and operations tooling for $100K+/mo brands whose tool stack stopped fitting off-the-shelf connectors.
Every established seller runs a stack: marketplaces, an ERP or accounting file, a 3PL or WMS, repricers, a returns pipeline, spreadsheets gluing it together. Somewhere around $100K a month the off-the-shelf connectors stop covering the gaps, and the ops team starts burning hours on exports, re-keying and reconciliation scripts someone's cousin wrote in 2022.
No other accounting firm can fix that; they don't employ engineers. We do. And because we also keep your books, the integrations we build are accounting-aware from day one: the data lands clean, reconciled and audit-ready instead of creating the next mess.
The gaps we get hired to close
Systems that don't talk
Your 3PL knows inventory, your ERP knows cost, your marketplace knows sales, and nothing agrees at month end. We build the sync layer with reconciliation built in, so one number is the number.
Manual workflows eating your team
Order routing, PO creation, returns triage, settlement downloads, reprice-and-relist loops: if a person does it in a browser every day, it can usually be automated in a week and paid back in a month.
Reporting your tools refuse to produce
SKU-level contribution margin across channels, landed cost by container, channel cohort dashboards, exec scorecards. Off-the-shelf analytics stops where your questions start. Custom reporting picks up from there.
What we do every month
- Custom marketplace/ERP/3PL integrations built and maintained
- Workflow automation for daily ops processes
- Custom dashboards and reporting on your real data
- Settlement and payout data pipelines, accounting-aware
- Inventory sync with reconciliation checks built in
- Migration support (QBO to NetSuite, 3PL changes, replatforms)
- Scoped fixed-fee projects, documented and handed over
- Ongoing support retainer if you want it, not required
Why an accounting firm is the right builder
Generic dev shops build what you spec and leave when it ships. The problem is that ops integrations live or die on accounting details the spec never mentions: fee mapping, refund timing, inventory valuation, cutoff discipline. We carry those requirements in by default because your month-end close depends on them, and we're the ones doing it.
Projects are scoped fixed-fee with a written spec, built, documented and handed over. You own the code, the same way you own your books.
Where this pairs with accounting engagements
Integration clients don't have to be accounting clients, but the pairing is where the leverage is: the same team that closes your books by day 10 also owns the pipelines feeding them, so data problems get fixed at the source instead of patched every month. For Exit-Grade clients, clean automated data flows are themselves a diligence asset; buyers pay for operations that run without the founder's spreadsheets.

Integrations & ops engineering FAQs
What does a custom integration project cost?
Scoped fixed-fee after a short discovery. Small automations run low four figures; multi-system integration projects run five. You get the number in writing before anything is built, and there's no obligation to be an accounting client.
What systems have you worked with?
Marketplace APIs (Amazon SP-API, Walmart, eBay, Shopify), QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, common 3PL/WMS platforms, and the long tail of internal tools and spreadsheets that actually run ecommerce companies. If it has an API or an export, it can usually be wired in.
Who owns and maintains what you build?
You own the code and the documentation outright. Maintenance is an optional retainer; several clients run what we built with no ongoing involvement from us at all.
Can you fix the integration mess a previous developer left?
Usually, and we'll tell you honestly when a rebuild beats a repair. The audit is the same either way: map what exists, find where the data breaks, and quote the fix flat.
