Monthend describes itself as an accounting and technology firm for builders, remodelers, commercial contractors, and trades. Their site states they are headquartered in Minnesota with a team of 25+ US-based accountants holding credentials including CPA and CCIFP, working inside Buildertrend, Jobtread, and QuickBooks Online.

A residential builder, remodeler, or trade contractor already running jobs in Buildertrend or JobTread with QuickBooks Online behind it is the clear fit here. Their site states monthly work includes creating the WIP report and recognizing revenue, and that a controller performs the monthly WIP adjustment, which is exactly where generalist bookkeeping tends to break for contractors. They state associates hold credentials including CPA and CCIFP, a construction-specific designation, and that the founder is a CPA and former CFO and partner of Minnesota's largest private homebuilding company.

Their site's positioning and workflow are built around construction, listing builders, remodelers, commercial contractors, and trades, with a stated workflow inside Buildertrend, Jobtread, and QuickBooks Online. A business outside construction, or a contractor on a different ledger or without a construction management system, sits outside the model their site describes.

No. Monthend does not publish a pricing page, plan table, or figure on its site. Their site states that Monthend is not a bargain and is usually one quarter the price compared to hiring a full-time, in-house accountant, and that pricing is established through a discovery call, which they describe as a mutual decision about fit.

Yes. Business and personal tax filings are available on every Uplinq plan, and tax strategy packages are available for businesses that want proactive planning. Because the same system holds your books and prepares your filings, year end is a handoff, not a project.

Their bookkeeping page lists preparing corporate tax returns within their stated monthly and annual scope, alongside reconciling accounts, creating the WIP report, recognizing revenue, and a 20 point quality checklist. Their homepage states business tax returns are completed by March 15th by a construction-specific tax professional. Whether tax preparation is priced inside the engagement fee is not published.

Both, deliberately. Uplinq's AI engine categorizes, reconciles, and monitors your transactions continuously. U.S.-based professional accountants review what the system produces and own every judgment call. You get the speed of technology with a real team accountable for the result.

Their site states that after onboarding, Monthend works in pairs of two US-based accountants: a bookkeeper handling day-to-day volume and a controller who oversees quality and meets with the client monthly. They state the controller is the primary point person, that clients can book a call or send a message whenever they would like, and that there is no extra fee or hourly charge for support within their regular scope.

That's common, and it's a solved problem. Uplinq's Catch Up service rebuilds past months or years of books as part of onboarding, scoped to how far behind you are and the state of your records. You start clean, not from wherever your last provider left off.

No. Uplinq offers month-to-month agreements as well as annual plans, which carry a discount. If you prepay annually and choose not to renew, you simply give notice 30 days before the term ends.
