Your software, or ours
You choose
Work inside your software
Keep your accounting stack. Excello works directly in your QuickBooks, Xero or Odoo file.
- No migration. Your chart of accounts, vendors and history stay put.
- No retraining. Your team keeps the software it already knows.
- Full control. You keep the admin login and full access every day.
Or move onto Excello
Excello's own bookkeeping platform is being built. It puts the software and the service in one place.
- Live dashboards and receipt matching in one view
- Messages to your accountant inside the app
- Invoice intake and approval flows built in
In December 2024, an online bookkeeping service used by thousands of small businesses shut down with almost no warning, right at year-end. When your books live in your own software, they never depend on anyone else's.
Your data stays yours
If you leave, your books stay intact. Inside QuickBooks, Xero or Odoo, you remove Excello's access and carry on. Once the Excello platform launches, leaving works the same way: your full general ledger, journal entries and receipts are exported in standard formats.

Letters to the desk
Loved working with Ayesha... Super professional and accurate. Will definitely use her services again when needed.
★★★★★
I recently hired Excello Services to handle the migration of my accounts from QuickBooks to Xero, and I couldn't be more impressed. From start to finish, their team demonstrated outstanding professionalism, technical expertise, and attention to detail. The process was seamless — they managed everything with precision, kept me informed throughout, and ensured there was zero disruption to my business operations. It's clear they know these platforms inside out. If you're considering a switch to Xero, I wholeheartedly recommend Excello Services. They're efficient, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. Five stars!
Thank you Hina for your great support. I have more time to work on for me important things now.
Frequently asked questions
What is an AI bookkeeping service?
An AI bookkeeping service combines automated software with accountants. The software captures receipts and matches bank transactions every day. Accountants review and categorize that work every week, or every business day on the higher plans, resolve anything unclear and close the books each month.
Do I have to switch accounting software?
No. Excello works directly inside your existing QuickBooks, Xero or Odoo account, so you keep your ledger, your transaction history and your admin access. Excello's own platform is also in development, and you can join the waitlist for it.
Who actually does the bookkeeping?
Accountants do, with software handling the repetitive work. Automated bookkeeping software captures receipts and matches bank feeds every day, following the Excello Rulebook. ACCA, CA and CMA-trained experts review and categorize transactions and resolve exceptions, and a qualified accountant signs off your month-end close.
How fast is the month-end close?
Your books are closed within five business days of month-end. For comparison, half of finance teams take six or more business days to close, according to Ledge's Month-End Close Benchmarks 2025, a survey of 100 finance professionals.
What happens to my books if I stop using Excello?
They stay yours, fully intact. When Excello works inside your QuickBooks, Xero or Odoo, you remove Excello's access and carry on with your full history, chart of accounts and admin login in place. Nothing needs exporting.
Can you work with my existing accountant?
Yes. Excello keeps the day-to-day ledger and the monthly reconciliations, then hands your CPA or tax preparer clean financial statements they can use without extra prep. If you would rather, Excello prepares the returns itself in the US, the UAE and the UK.
What does it cost?
Bookkeeping plans start at $150 a month for up to 150 transactions, with Growth at $350 and Scale from $750. The fee is fixed and quoted before any work starts, and it is set by your monthly transactions, how often you want the books reviewed, and extras such as inventory accounting or a second company.
