What Righto does not do
The limits of Righto v1: no bank feeds, invoices, payroll, tax engine, or cloud.
Published
Righto v1 is free. It is for small US businesses with straightforward books. To keep it reliable, it does not do these things:
- No bank feeds. You import statement files. No bank login, Plaid, or Stripe connection.
- No sending or collecting invoices. You can record money that customers owe you and download each one as an invoice PDF, but Righto does not send invoices, take payments, or chase customers.
- No payroll or inventory. You can record payroll and inventory entries, but Righto does not run payroll or count stock.
- No tax engine. Righto does not calculate tax, prepare or file returns, handle sales tax, or decide which payments need a 1099. Reports and reminders help your accountant; they are not tax advice.
- No built-in AI. Righto works with the AI agent that you choose.
- No cloud and no sync. There is no Righto account, no online copy, and no shared editing. You own the file.
- No automatic backups. You copy the file where you want it. See Your business file, password, and recovery key.
- US dollars only.
- No direct history import from QuickBooks or Xero. You can bring the chart, contacts, balances, and open items, then import statements. See Switch from QuickBooks or Xero.
- No period locking. You can correct any date in the past. Righto keeps the history and asks you to reconcile again when a correction affects a verified period.
