Company Overview
The team behind dbooks have been in the crypto industry since 2015 and have faced many bookkeeping and accounting challenges first hand. This began with the company creating small internal applications to deal with specific challenges – this has evolved into a commercial platform reminiscent of the way Twitter was launched in 2006.
The Accounting challenges facing new and existing crypto based businesses are steep due to the lack of accounting infrastructure and process linking crypto revenue streams into the traditional Fiat accounting and filing requirements. These headaches also bleed into other business tasks such as payroll, fund management, distribution and more.
Integrating dbooks into a companies existing processes is a breeze as the Dbooks platform does not look to replace users existing accounting platforms but rather to add a second layer of functionality by integrating into over 25 major accounting platforms. Dbooks also has the option to integrate directly with a growing list of banks along with E-commerce providers such as Shopify
The dbooks platform features quantum-safe encryption technology. We also have amazing product research and validation from our partnership with Rutgers University working directly with their PhD students and industry-leading research and marketing leads through our partnership with Gartner. Dbooks is also partnered with Gartner for consulting advice, research, pricing, market share, competition, and customers. This gives dbooks a unique position within the industry. Dbooks is also a carbon-neutral company.
The dbooks accounting platform acts as a layer two solution to existing accounting platforms which means we can enhance current accounting setups as opposed to requiring a large software overhaul and transfer of data over to a new solution. This integration can be achieved through existing accounting platforms such as Sage, Xero and quick books or integrated directly into a bank account allowing users to reconcile banking outputs without the need for an existing accounting system. dbooks also has the ability to integrate with Shopify, Woo Commerce and other leading E-commerce solutions empowering online shop owners with the ability to accept new revenue streams across a wide range of cryptocurrencies.
