The Problem The Solution
We Solve We Created
MSME ACC E SS TO FINANCE BOOK | K E E P E R (BETA 1.0)
Input
MSME users enter simple operational and financial data on each business
transaction with, for example, customers, suppliers, employees, etc. by
answering simple and intuitive questions displayed in a gamified and fun manner.
Users can also upload documents supporting each transaction, such as receipts,
invoices, and pictures.
Output
The app immediately displays the bookkeeping entries - debits and credits -
associated with each transaction entered by the MSME users based on double-
entry accounting principles. Users can search, filter, and select transactions and
export the bookkeeping entries, [financial statements], and [business analytics] to
(a) lenders in csv or PDF files with and (b) gain actionable business insights, which the
MSMEs can use to improve profitability, growth, and job creation.
Outcome
Widespread adoption of this financial literacy app by t h e MSMEs, t h r o u g h
increased awareness campaigns and training arranged by advocacy organizations,
academic institutions, NGOs and financial institutions will h e l p bridge the $8.1
trillion financing gap by d r a s t i c a l l y i m p r o v i n g t h e a s s e s s m e n t
o f MSME credit risk. This will scale the supply of affordable loans to MSMEs,
especially women owned MSMEs, helping them grow profitably and create jobs.
Cost
We have waived the app’s subscription fee for 6-months, to be followed by a low
monthly subscription fee.
Help Desk
We partner with advocacy organizations, academic institutions, NGOs, and
financial institutions to set up help desks as needed.
