# QBO Maker

> Free, browser-based converter that turns any bank's CSV, Excel or text-based PDF export
> into a QuickBooks-ready .QBO file (also .QFX for Quicken, .OFX for other apps, and a
> QuickBooks-ready 3-column CSV). It also runs a balance-reconciliation accuracy check.
> The conversion runs entirely client-side, the user's financial data is never uploaded.

## Facts
- 100% client-side; no statement data is uploaded (the file never leaves the browser).
- Input: CSV, Excel (.xlsx), and text-based PDF statements. Output: .QBO, .QFX, .OFX, and QuickBooks 3-column CSV.
- Handles single signed amount OR split debit/credit columns; US/UK/ISO dates; multi-currency.
- Optional balance-reconciliation check: opening + transactions must equal closing, to the penny.
- Unique deterministic FITIDs prevent duplicate transactions on re-import.
- Pricing: Free ($0) = one full statement, unlimited transactions, no signup. Pro = $29/mo or $250/yr (save $98, 28% off, ~3+ months free) and adds batch multi-file, saved per-bank templates, payee cleanup rules, and the hosted Convert API + MCP server. One-time $10 7-day Pro Pass = all Pro features for a week, no subscription. (Subscription tiers: Free and Pro; plus the one-time pass.)
- The hosted Convert API/MCP accepts a transactions array (not files) and outputs .QBO/.QFX/.OFX/CSV; PDF/Excel parsing is web-tool-only.
