What is Pilot Bookkeeping?
Pilot bookkeeping includes CFO and tax services designed for startups and small businesses. They have a team of 250+ US-based experts who help your business get on solid financial ground.
After signing up, Pilot pairs you with a dedicated bookkeeper who transfers your financial information to QuickBooks Online (QBO), their preferred software.
Pilot relies exclusively on QuickBooks Online for all its bookkeeping needs and uses accrual-basis accounting.
Now, if you plan to outsource bookkeeping services to Pilot, you'll get a choice of three distinct pricing plans, starting monthly and annually, based on your business's monthly expenses. We'll discuss Pilot's pricing in-depth in the later sections.
Onboarding Time:
Choosing a bookkeeping partner shouldn't delay your ability to run your business. Yet, for many, that’s exactly what happens with Pilot bookkeeping service.
60 Minutes with Wishup's Remote Bookkeeping Service
Wishup’s onboarding process is streamlined, efficient, and fully virtual. Within 60 minutes, you're matched with a certified virtual bookkeeper, onboarded onto your preferred tools, and your outsourced bookkeeping service begins.
You’ll see reconciled books, real-time updates, and clean financials by the end of the first week. Wishup’s process fits into your business flow, not the other way around.
Wishup offers an online bookkeeping service that’s fast, frictionless, and built around your urgency. With same-day activation, you avoid costly delays and keep your financials moving forward, unlike with Pilot’s drawn-out onboarding.
Software Compatibility
Your books are only as good as the system they’re built on, and Wishup doesn’t make you change yours.
Wishup Works with What You Already Use
Wishup supports 120+ accounting and productivity platforms, including QuickBooks, Zoho, Xero, Wave, and others. Whether you're a solopreneur managing vendors through Zoho or a growing ecommerce brand tracking orders in Shopify + Xero, Wishup plugs into your stack seamlessly.
Pilot - QuickBooks Online
Pilot only supports QuickBooks Online (QBO). If you're using any other accounting software, you’ll be required to migrate everything to QBO.
Wishup's flexibility makes it one of the best bookkeeping services for small businesses, especially those using modern tool stacks. You keep your workflow, your history, and your sanity.
Pricing Transparency and Value
Wishup’s Simple Pricing Lets You Scale Without Surprises
Wishup offers clear, flexible pricing with no annual contracts or fine-print surprises. You can start with managed bookkeeping services at just $300/month, or choose a dedicated virtual bookkeeper for $999 (80 hours) or $1799 (160 hours) per month.
These are month-to-month commitments, making it easier for startups and growing companies to adjust as their needs change.
You won’t need to calculate hidden onboarding fees, pay extra for “add-ons” like tax prep or AP/AR, or worry about annual lock-ins. For any founder managing cash flow, this kind of pricing predictability is critical.
Pilot Bookkeeping Pricing
Pilot bookkeeping service starts at $169/month, billed annually but only with an annual prepayment. It goes up to $5250 per month for growing companies needing CFOs.
Here’s the updated information on how Pilot's pricing works for each monthly bookkeeping subscription at the various ranges of monthly expenses when paid annually :
