MatchGrid
close month-end with a real audit trail
CSV in. Exception queue out. Spreadsheet panic removed.

Close the month without the reconciliation workbook.

MatchGrid gives SMB finance teams deterministic bank-to-GL matching, exception review, and export-ready evidence without the “which file is final?” chaos that still owns close week.

Early access includes the CSV mapping checklist and launch pricing.

The wedge

Not another accounting suite. A bank-rec replacement with receipts.

The pitch is narrow on purpose: deterministic matching, exception triage, and audit-ready evidence for the exact workflow still trapped in Excel.

What changes on day one

Upload bank, GL, and optional clearing files. MatchGrid normalizes dates and amounts, applies rule packs, then pushes only the unresolved lines into a review queue. The output is a journal-ready CSV plus a PDF summary for the file.

What the spreadsheet never gave you

Version certainty, rule history, and exception ownership. Instead of chasing formulas across copies, you get one visible queue that explains what matched, what did not, and why.

"We stopped asking which workbook was final."

"The team could finally review exceptions instead of rebuilding the same bank rec from scratch every month."

Controller | 42-person SaaS operator

"The audit packet wrote itself."

"Exporting matched lines plus the exception summary cut the cleanup meeting in half."

Fractional CFO | multi-client practice

"It feels like a close tool, not a hacked spreadsheet."

"We kept our CSV flow but lost the fragile formulas and mystery tabs."

Questions finance teams ask before leaving Excel.

The launch version focuses on file-based workflows first, then adds connective tissue once the wedge proves itself.

No. The MVP starts with the exact CSV exports teams already use so value shows up before any integration project exists.
MatchGrid stores rule versions per entity, including tolerances and bundled match logic, so weird payouts stop living in hidden workbook tabs.
That is the point of the audit trail. Every run preserves file source, applied rules, exceptions reviewed, and the export packet generated from that run.
Launch onboarding is designed around one current spreadsheet process and two sample CSVs. The target is first matched run inside one close cycle.
AI stays in the support lane. It suggests mapping logic from column headers and exception notes, but matching itself remains deterministic and reviewable.
Gemini-assisted mapping

Ask the exception assistant what rule it would try first.

This preview sends your prompt to the MatchGrid AI helper so accountants can get rule-pack suggestions without letting the model become the source of truth.

Example output: Start with a many-to-one payout rule keyed to payout ID, then add a date tolerance of 1 business day and exclude processor fees into a separate clearing account.
