The problem
Accounting software can show a number without making it easy to understand where that number came from. That is manageable until a business needs to check a decision, answer a question, or correct a mistake.
The approach
Sterling Trace keeps transactions, documents and decisions connected. AI helps with the work, but the evidence remains visible so an answer can be checked instead of merely trusted.
What I am building
The aim is a hands-off accountant for smaller businesses: useful enough to remove repetitive work, careful enough to preserve the source, and simple enough to use without learning an accounting system.
