Reviewed every month.
No 90-day onboarding nightmare. No mystery process. Here's exactly what working with us actually looks like.

30 minutes. We review your current setup, walk you through the Yesler Portal, and quote a clear monthly engagement scoped to your business — before any work begins.
Onboarding
We connect to your bookkeeping software (or set you up fresh in QuickBooks/Xero), build your Portal, and your dedicated New York-savvy team learns your business. Live in 14 days.
Monthly close, 3-tier review
AI handles the first pass. Your dedicated specialist reviews and catches edge cases. Senior management or our in-house CPA signs off. You see every step in the Portal.
Everything NYC businesses need.
Pick one. Bundle them all. Most clients combine monthly bookkeeping with payroll, New York sales tax, and NYC-specific business tax filings.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Six months behind? Twenty-four? We've seen worse. We'll get you current and audit-ready.
New York-aware bookkeeping.
Real humans on every account.
National firms treat you like a number. Small local shops disappear when their one bookkeeper takes vacation. We're built differently.
New York-specific expertise
We handle NY State corporate franchise tax, NYC General Corporation Tax for C-corps, NYC Unincorporated Business Tax (UBT) for pass-throughs, Commercial Rent Tax for Manhattan businesses over the threshold, and navigate the NY Department of Taxation and Finance like locals do.
Three layers of review on everything
AI handles the repetitive work. Your staff specialist checks it and handles edge cases. Senior management or our in-house CPA signs off before anything is finalized. No single point of failure, no "trust us" black box.
Multi-platform specialists
QuickBooks Online & Desktop, Xero, FreshBooks, Wave, Sage. We work where you already do — your books stay where your CPA, lender, and tax software expect them.
Eastern business hours
Your dedicated team is available during EST. Same-day responses on weekday messages. No outsourced call centers, no 3am email chains.
Right-sized for your business — and scales with you
Whether you're a one-person shop, an owner-operator with a small team, or a multi-entity company outgrowing your last firm, we scope every engagement to where you actually are. As you grow, your team stays the same — we scale alongside you instead of handing you off to a different tier.
Built to scale with your business.
Whether you're a solo founder finally getting your books in order or a multi-entity company outgrowing your last firm — we'll show you what life looks like with Yesler running your back office.

We're a Series A SaaS company that moved HQ to FiDi. Our old firm kept giving us conflicting answers on NY state corporate tax and NYC UBT. Yesler took it over, filed our late returns clean, and now monthly close is something I don't even think about. Their Portal lets me see exactly what's happening in real time.
