Products like QuickBooks Online, Sage 50, and Wave Accounting were available, but they all seemed like they were built for bookkeepers and lacked the simplicity and mobile features of modern apps.

So we did what any entrepreneur does — we seized the opportunity. Ten years later, Kashoo is one of the most popular online accounting apps in the world, with subscribers in over 180 countries. Based in Vancouver, BC, Canada we’re a small team of 20 people who are truly passionate about giving small business owners the financial tools they need to succeed. We believe in simplicity, clarity, and focus.

The past couple of years we’ve been rethinking Kashoo. Soon we’ll be introducing a brand new version of Kashoo built from the ground up on machine learning and artificial intelligence. You’ll spend less time doing bookkeeping and understand your business finances like you never have before. If you’re interested in checking out the new version and providing feedback drop us a line.

We often get asked how the name “Kashoo” came to be for our accounting software. Well, there’s an Olde English saying — “Making your Nut” — that, when translated into “modern speak”, basically means covering your expenses, or another way: making enough cash to cover your expenses. Back in the days when the carnival rode into town, officials would remove the ‘nut’ from a Carnie’s wagon, preventing them from skipping town without paying their expenses owed. So the Carnies had to “make their nut”.
