Why Nael for firms

The accountant becomes the financial leadership for their clients.

No commission on your fees. No replacing your client relationship. Nael is the tool behind you.

  • Billable advisory Score + plan

    On every restaurant file, your team delivers a score out of 100, a priced action plan, and a monthly read. Advisory becomes a deliverable you can bill.

  • Time saved 5 min vs 4 h

    The monthly Nael read (brief, alerts, score) takes a few minutes per file — not all the accounting work. It mainly replaces hours of Excel recompilation and manual sorting at close. Time saved goes back to firm margin, without renegotiating your existing fees.

  • Your clients stay yours 0 % commission

    When a client invites you to Nael, your firm access is free. No commission, no fee sharing. You remain their single point of contact.

FAQ

Free, plans, clients — in plain terms.

What is free?

The client dashboard, workshop, file sheet, and ledger upload for each restaurant. Your team does the accounting work file by file — with no firm subscription.

My client invited me — what do I pay?

Nothing to start. When a client invites you to Nael, access to their file is free. You create your firm workspace, upload the ledger, and run the restaurant file. The firm plan (consolidated view) only matters when you want to scale across multiple files.

When should I activate a firm plan?

When you want the consolidated view: portfolio brief, prioritized alerts, team oversight. Activate when you're ready to scale — 14-day trial, no credit card.

Does my restaurant client pay?

Yes, on their side. Each restaurant has their own Nael plan — free diagnostic, optional monthly monitoring (from €49/mo ex VAT). You, the firm, access their dashboards for free to work the file. Your firm plan (€49 / €99 / €199 per role) is only for the consolidated view : two separate subscriptions.

How does it integrate with Pennylane, Sage, or Cegid?

You upload the general ledger exported from your accounting software (FEC in France, or CSV from QuickBooks, Xero, Pennylane, Sage, Cegid, ACD…). Nael reads the entries, recalculates restaurant benchmarks, and surfaces alerts. No connector to install — a monthly export is enough.

Do you take my margin or my clients?

No. No commission on your fees, no margin sharing. Your clients stay yours. Nael is the tool behind you — you remain the single point of contact on the file.

Where is data hosted?

In France (OVH Strasbourg), GDPR compliant. Your client controls who accesses their file. Deletion on request.
