— What I've built

Software and Tools

Designed and built end-to-end, under my studio, Ledger Labs.

— Accounting & Tax Software and products I built to help in my own profession.

Two halves of one workflow, both run by agents I work alongside, not on autopilot: LedgerClaw keeps the books all year, then hands a tied-out, book-to-tax package to TaxClaw, which creates the tax workpapers and works up the return.

Practice platform

LedgerClaw

→

The AI-native, agentic operating system for the modern CPA firm: agents that keep the books, run the close, and carry the work from book to tax, orchestrated by the practitioner.

Live - waitlist

✓Nine production AI agents
✓One multi-tenant firm spine
✓Preview-first: you approve every post

Tax prep

TaxClaw

→

The tax half of LedgerClaw: AI reads the documents, a real engine computes the return, and it ties out on a canvas workpaper, with the CPA in control before anything is filed.

✓Individual and business returns
✓A real, deterministic tax engine
✓Agents propose, the CPA approves

Where I unplug.

No screens. Just leather, by hand.

When the laptop closes, I pick up leather. Cutting, stitching, and finishing by hand is the deliberate opposite of everything else on this page, and that's exactly why it resets me. It also became a small business: CB Leathercrafts.

→

Handcrafted leather goods (wallets, belts, and accessories) with a live customizer and an AI concept generator.

— Your turn

You can build this too.

I'm a CPA, not an engineer, and I don't have those skills. Every tool on this page exists because I had a problem in my own work or life and used AI to help me build a solution for it. The skill that mattered wasn't technical. It was knowing which problem was worth solving.

Which means you can do this too. If there's a tool you wish existed in your corner of the world, you're closer to building it than you think. Start small, and solve your own problem first.

Already built something? I'd love to see it. Haven't started? Pick one problem and begin.

And if you're a CPA or another professional who wants help getting started, that's part of what my practice does. I'm happy to help.
