LedgerPair
A reconciliation autopilot that watches your Stripe, Square, or payment processor settlement file overnight, flags every line item that disagrees with your internal ledger, and tells a non-engineer on your finance team exactly which row to investigate.
finance ops leads at small payment fintechs and SaaS billing teams who dread month-end close
- Daily side-by-side diff between internal ledger events and processor settlement data, with the source field preserved on every event
- Plain-English morning digest for the finance team: '3 transactions settled by Stripe that your system still shows pending, here's the IDs'
- Discrepancy inbox with assign, comment, and resolve workflow so close-the-books is a shared task, not a one-person scramble
- Anomaly trend view that shows recurring drift patterns (webhook timing, retry loops, timezone mismatches) before they compound
