No office full of grey suits. No yearly contracts. No "we'll get back to you". We've built a new way of doing accounting — for the entrepreneur of today, not 2005.
Many accountants don't have time for their clients. Or work without the right intent. They're never reachable, they send invoices you didn't see coming, and when you have a question there's an assistant on the phone who'll have someone else call you back.
We saw this up close — as entrepreneurs we were the clients. We got tired of waiting for answers. Tired of annual reports always being late. Tired of invoice lines that made no sense.
So we started Boekhoudlive. A new way of accounting — online, simple, personal. We combine the best Dutch accounting software with live human service. Plus Henk, who's in chat 24/7. Below we explain what makes us different.
Sound familiar? It happened to us too. We called, got voicemail, emailed, got nothing back. We signed a yearly contract and got stuck. Our annual report always came in October — for the year before.
That accountant worked hard. But no longer for you. And that was our signal it had to change.
We don't compare ourselves to competitors. We tell our own story — that's what we believe in.
Henk sits at the bottom of every page. He's online 24/7. Ask him anything about accounting, VAT, deadlines, deductions or Chamber of Commerce procedures — he answers instantly. No waiting for a business day, no "I'll get back to you".
How good is that really? Picture this: it's Sunday evening, you're at dinner with a client and they ask if the VAT on their invoice is correct. Old way? Email Monday. Now? Henk verified it before the coffee gets cold.
This is our strength. No call center, no rotating faces — one person who knows your business, your history, your situation. You communicate however suits you: WhatsApp, phone, email or video.
And when your accountant has a day off? Henk knows. He catches the basics and queues the rest for when your advisor is back. No one is left waiting on you.
No mandatory "all-in-one" package where you don't use 80%. With us you tick which services you need — bookkeeping, VAT, income tax + annual accounts BV, support window, tax advice — and see your monthly price live.
How good is that? You never overpay. You never pay for something you don't use. And if your situation changes — more clients, a second location, or temporarily less — you adjust your package. Per month.
You account as you go. Monthly subscription with extra services you choose. Want to stop? Fine. Finish the current month, that's it. No notice periods, no fine print, no invoice ticking on for 11 more months.
Why do we dare? Because we trust our service. Good work keeps clients on its own. A contract is a wall — we don't need one.
We work with the three best Dutch accounting packages: Snelstart, Jortt and Moneybird. You pick which fits — we cover the software license. No separate bill, no renewal you forget.
Already have a package you're happy with? Also fine — we connect to it. Condition: it must work in a live environment (no local Excel files in a folder on your laptop). Your advisor will guide you.
Three ways to start: build your package and finalize directly. Submit the free application and we'll call back. Or ask Henk in chat.
