Add allocation monitoring

Books and allocation tools in one place

Lawenots is software for keeping clean business ledgers when you hold both cash and digital assets. Connect your banks, match transactions, and finish each month with a simple checklist. You stay in control of the rules — we do not give investment advice.

Anyone can start bookkeeping from $49 per month. Allocation monitoring is available with a self-serve purchase or subscription — Snapshot through Signal on the allocation ladder. Prefer to look first? Use the guided sandbox, then compare plans on the pricing page.

Operators and practices use Lawenots to shorten month-end, hand clearer files to a CPA, and keep tax schedules tied to the same lots and transactions you already recorded. Export receipts include a content hash so you can prove what was generated.

How month-end works

  1. 1. Bring activity into the close model. Connect banks or import files. Lawenots normalizes rows so cash and digital-asset activity live in the same books ledger.
  2. 2. Match against one truth. Suggested matches and rules clear the easy items. Bank reconciliation, AR invoices, AP bills, and settlement anchors all resolve against the same ledger.
  3. 3. Close with a reproducible score. Readiness rolls up shipped Close Graph gates — categorized transactions, open recon, ledger balance, settlement↔GL, open AR, and open AP — into a weighted score.
  4. 4. Export the evidence package. Tax schedules, statements, and export receipts serialize what was generated so a CPA can see what closed and when. Optional Close + Attest adds a verifiable proof link.

Unified book

Fiat (Plaid) and digital assets under one close

Bank feeds and on-chain activity reconcile into one chart of accounts and one Close Graph. Period close, tax schedules, and optional attestation share the same lots and transactions — not a separate crypto spreadsheet.

  • Plaid bank sync + CSV import for fiat treasury
  • Lot engine for digital-asset disposals and Form 8949 exports
  • Allocation monitoring is a self-serve add-on for mixed-asset operators — see pricing

Product spine

Close Graph

A period-close model where each close input is a weighted readiness gate with evidence — not scattered checklist folklore.

In production today, Close Graph readiness is computed from DB-backed gates: categorized transactions, pending review, bank reconciliations, ledger balance, open AR (SENT invoices), and open AP (APPROVED bills). Imported Stripe/payroll expectation feeds and hash-chained carry-forward notes are on the roadmap — shown below as such, not as shipped workspace features.

Node lifecycle

Open
Matched
Settled
Attested
Carried forward

Transaction

shipped

Plaid row, CSV import, exchange/on-chain activity

Reconciliation item

shipped

Bank reconciliation difference, duplicate suspect, feed gap

Invoice / AR expectation

shipped

Customer invoices in SENT status (AR posted to GL until paid)

Bill / AP expectation

shipped

Vendor bills in APPROVED status (AP posted to GL until paid)

Compensation expectation

roadmap

Gusto/Deel/ADP/PEO register import, contractor accrual (import evaluators)

Settlement anchor

roadmap

Should-settle vs did-settle evidence (Plaid ACH, Stripe payout, on-chain) via the Verify evaluator

Tax remittance expectation

roadmap

Stripe Tax report import (manual CSV or auto-fetched via report-ready webhook) vs filing/remittance evidence

Readiness formula

readiness = round((sum(weight for passed nodes) / sum(all node weights)) * 100)

Shipped gates block close when they fail. Roadmap node types (compensation imports, hashed carry-forward) are labeled separately and do not yet change the production score.

Carry-forward with content-hashed note (roadmap)

Planned as a first-class graph transition with hashed operator notes in the evidence package. Today, open AR/AP and recon items must be cleared (paid/voided/completed) or they block close.

Close feeds

Revenue, settlement, compensation, and tax remittance feeds one close engine

Lawenots is not a bill-pay rail, payroll tax engine, or tax remittance service. Customer invoices and vendor bills post to the GL and feed shipped AR/AP readiness gates. Imported Stripe/settlement/comp/tax expectation evaluators exist for Verify; settlement, compensation, and tax remittance import nodes remain roadmap for the production close score.

Expectation objects

Shipped: invoices and bills as AR/AP close gates with GL journals. Roadmap: imported provider expectations (Stripe MRR, payroll registers, Stripe Tax collected-vs-remitted) as the same weighted readiness rollup.

Revenue / AR

nodeType: ar_expectation

shipped

Expected: Customer invoices (Mark Sent posts AR)

Observed: Mark Paid applies cash against AR; bank deposits remain in the ledger

Blocker: SENT invoices unpaid at close

Shipped GL + readiness gate — not a full invoicing suite

Settlement reconciliation

nodeType: settlement_anchor

roadmap

Expected: Imported settlement events that should couple to GL

Observed: GL references on settlement anchors

Blocker: Should-settle vs did-settle / missing GL refs

Roadmap for production close score — Verify evaluator today

Compensation reconciliation

nodeType: comp_expectation

roadmap

Expected: Comp run-rate and provider register imports (Gusto, Deel, ADP, PEO)

Observed: Posted GL and register rows (evaluator path)

Blocker: Register / GL discrepancy by close

Roadmap for production close score — Verify evaluator today

Tax remittance reconciliation

nodeType: tax_expectation

roadmap

Expected: Tax collected per jurisdiction/period (Stripe Tax report import)

Observed: Filing/remittance confirmation evidence per jurisdiction

Blocker: Collected-but-unremitted tax at close / remittance amount variance

Roadmap for production close score — Verify evaluator today

Crypto-leg evidence reuse

Crypto legs carry tx hash + FMV as evidence, reuse the lot and 8949 machinery, and can emit an outflow event into allocation drift when that module is provisioned.

Lawenots Verify

Lawenots can review any books — and close them

Import QuickBooks, Xero, or CSV. Lawenots Verify surfaces close blockers, scores readiness, and returns a hashed readiness report that looks like a real close package. Works even if the client never migrates.

  • Uncategorized transactions
  • Duplicate suspects
  • Bank feed gaps
  • Open reconciliations
  • Lot identity mismatches
  • Ledger imbalance

Import is the top of the funnel. Close Graph is the destination.

Visual proof of correctness

Close → attestation → export receipt

The brand is auditable artifacts, not neon dashboards. Step through what Close + Attest produces — then verify offline with open verification tooling.

Every close input becomes a graph node with a reproducible state: open, matched, settled, attested, or carried forward.

Free first attested close

Your first attested close is free — for any organization

Bring your books native or import from QuickBooks. We deliver one real evidence package for your first period — a locked trial balance, issue list, matched/unmatched ledger, export receipts, and attestation metadata — with a live verify link anyone can check.

  • Any org, any source

    Start in Lawenots books or import QB-sourced data. The first period's attested close package costs nothing.

  • One real evidence package

    Not a demo. A serialized period subgraph with a Merkle-root attestation and a public verify link you can hand to a CPA.

  • The CPA becomes the salesperson

    A signed, independently verifiable close package beats a spreadsheet. Your CPA sees it once and wants it every period.

Free covers period one. Close + Attest ($399/yr) covers ongoing anchoring, batch closes, and firm workflows.

Allocation intelligence for individuals

Targets vs reality — with tax-aware next steps you decide

Use allocation as a standalone policy tool, or attach it to Lawenots books. Drift alerts, tax-aware rebalance previews, and a downloadable Allocation Evidence package — without turning Lawenots into a generic crypto dashboard.

  • Essential

    Drift + target vs actual

  • Differentiator

    Tax-aware rebalance preview

  • Strong

    Allocation Evidence (paid deliverable)

Link your portfolio policy to this closed period so drift alerts and Allocation Evidence follow your books close cycle.

Open verification

Independently verify Close + Attest evidence

Lawenots publishes verification tooling for Close + Attest so operators, firms, and auditors can independently validate evidence packages without a Lawenots account.

These are verification and contract artifacts — not the full product. Reconciliation matching, allocation drift logic, and Labs Flywheel covenant implementations remain proprietary.
