Partner, SDO CPA LLC — CEO, Growthy
I built Growthy because I still click “Categorize” 500 times a week for real clients. Every tool I tried either replaced QuickBooks or didn’t actually work.
The problem I couldn’t unsee
500 transactions land in QuickBooks every month for a typical small business. You click “Categorize” on each one. Bank rules help with maybe 40%. The rest is muscle memory — and it doesn’t scale past 15 clients.
I’m Bobby Huang — a CPA firm partner at SDO CPA LLC. I still reconcile books for clients every week. That’s how I know the pain firsthand: it’s not that bookkeeping is hard, it’s that it’s relentless. The same transactions, the same clicks, week after week.
QuickBooks’ built-in auto-categorize gets about ~3% accuracy on its own. Growthy gets to 85% on the first import — because it learns from your corrections, not from generic rules. You correct it once, it remembers forever.
I built Growthy because I couldn’t find a tool that made bookkeepers faster without replacing QuickBooks. Every competitor either wanted to own your GL (Digits) or do your books for you (Pilot). Growthy works alongside QBO — read-only access, never moves money. It learns from your corrections and handles the repetitive 80%. You handle the judgment calls. Done before lunch.
