FOR SMALL BUSINESS
One system instead of ten spreadsheets
Invoicing, expenses, and payroll in one workspace. Move your existing records over in an evening and stop reconciling tools against each other.
TEAM
One workspace for the whole team
The owner, the colleague issuing invoices, and the external accountant all work from the same records. Six roles over a 22-permission model decide who sees what — so you stop reconciling tools against each other.
Six roles, 22 permissions
Owner, admin, member, accountant, a read-only viewer, and custom, hand-picked page by page.
A role for your accountant
Your external accountant works in the same records you do, without access to members, billing, or API keys.
Review-first by design
Invoices and receipts never post on their own. Every extracted document waits in the approval queue until someone on your team approves it.
Every change on the record
On Accounting and up, each change is recorded in a per-company audit log.
The capabilities you will use every day
Operations, people, and compliance in one workspace.
Invoicing
Branded PDF invoices with a live editable preview, email delivery, and automatic paid, unpaid, and overdue tracking.
Invoices from email
Forward a document from any mailbox to your Cove address — attachments are classified, extracted, checked for duplicates, and staged for approval.
120+ expense categories
An accountant-curated taxonomy with per-expense VAT treatment applied automatically.
HR and payroll
Employee records, payroll, and leave — included, not bolted on.
File storage
Every generated document — invoices, tax exports and more — saves into one organized, linked archive.
From spreadsheet to system in three steps
Migration is a template, not a project: column matching is deterministic, the same file gives the same result every time, and skipped rows download as a CSV you can fix and re-import.
- Step 1
Download the template
Pick clients, products, sales, or expenses and get a CSV or Excel file with Cove's exact column headers.
- Step 2
Fill it from your records
Copy rows straight out of your spreadsheets — dates, currencies, and country names are handled for you.
- Step 3
Upload and review
Confirm the column matching, import up to 2,000 rows per file, and repeat for the next batch. Your history lands in Cove the same evening.
