The honest alternative to legacy accounting software.
No per-user surprises. No annual contract lock-in. No ad-supported free tier. Just honest software for honest businesses.
Why we built Ketpy Book.
Legacy desktop accounting starts at ₹15K/year per machine
Your shop staff doesn't need a Windows PC to bill a customer. Ketpy Book runs on a phone for ₹499/year.
Other cloud accounting tools start at ₹4,200/year — and scale by user
Add 3 users and you're at ₹14,400. Pro on Ketpy Book = ₹1,199 flat with 3 users included.
Free mobile-first accounting apps are ad-supported with limited cloud features
Ketpy Book is cloud-first, no install, no ads — your data is yours, your CA can log in from anywhere.
