Tools

Best tools for money & metrics

The finance stack splits by job: bookkeeping, analytics/attribution, and profit dashboards. Start with a spreadsheet + your platform's reports, add paid tools only when the numbers justify them.

Finance tools cover three jobs: bookkeeping (accounting), analytics/attribution (true performance), and a profit dashboard (contribution and net in one view). Early on a spreadsheet plus native reports does the job; paid tools earn their place only when volume, multi-channel spend, or tax complexity makes manual work error-prone. AI browses current pricing into a comparison; you confirm live numbers.
