Bank Statement Converter for Tax Season
Handle tax season volume spikes without per-page fees. Batch upload 50+ year-end statements, auto-categorize transactions for deductions, and export to QuickBooks or Excel. $79/month unlimited even during peak season.
Tax Season Volume Without Tax Season Pricing
Tax season brings 3-5x normal processing volume to accounting firms. When every client sends 12 months of bank statements at once, per-page pricing tools turn a $50 November bill into an $800 February bill. Zera Books charges $79/month flat regardless of how many statements you process.

The Tax Season Problem
Most bank statement converters use per-page pricing that seems reasonable during slow months. But when tax season hits and you need to process 2,000+ pages across all clients, costs explode. Add in AI categorization fees, processing delays from overloaded servers, and mid-season tier upgrades, and your conversion costs can exceed $1,000 in a single quarter.
Zera Books solves this with truly unlimited processing. Upload as many statements as you need, process them instantly, and pay the same $79/month whether it's August or April 14th.
