We built this because we lost a file.
Twice, actually, in the same quarter, at a four-person bookkeeping practice where two of us worked. The second time took nine hours to resolve and cost a client. The tool we wrote so it would not happen again became InfoHive.
How it went
- 2019
Started as an internal tool at a four-person bookkeeping practice that had lost a client file twice in one quarter.
- 2021
First outside customers, all of them accountants who heard about it from the first practice.
- 2023
Retention and approvals shipped after a customer failed an audit for reasons that were entirely about filing.
- 2026
Eleven people, 2,400 firms, and still no sales team.
How we work
We charge for the software and nothing else. No setup fee, no migration package, no per-seat surprise in month three. If a plan stops fitting you, we would rather move you down a tier than lose you.
Support is answered by people who work on the product. There are eleven of us, which makes that possible and also means we say no to a lot of good ideas.
We have taken no outside investment. That is not a virtue in itself, but it does mean the only way this business grows is if the software is worth paying for.
We are not trying to become a platform. InfoHive files documents and finds them. Everything we have been asked to add that is not that, we have declined.
