Akaunting

Akaunting is an open-source, online accounting platform for small businesses and freelancers, covering invoicing, expense tracking, double-entry bookkeeping, and reporting. It can be used as a hosted cloud service or self-hosted on-premise, with the Standard on-premise edition available at no cost.

Core capabilities include bank and cash accounts, multi-company management, multi-currency transactions, tax rates, recurring invoices and payments, client portal access, vendor and customer management, billable expenses, and financial reporting. An App Store adds modules such as bank feeds, double-entry accounting, projects, inventory, estimates, payroll, CRM, expense claims, and custom fields, alongside integrations for payment methods, e-invoicing, and data import. The platform is built with Laravel, VueJS, Tailwind, and a RESTful API, and supports multilingual admin and client panels.

Cloud plans are tiered by company, user, and invoice limits, with a free trial available. The Standard Cloud plan targets one-person businesses, while Premium, Elite, and Ultimate add companies, users, apps, and modules such as bank feeds, payroll, projects, inventory, CRM, and point of sale.
