WHY LUMABILL

One thing done right, not many done halfway

KLARA is a broad business platform with CRM and payroll. LumaBill focuses on invoicing and bookkeeping - and does exactly that better.

Real double-entry bookkeeping from day one

KLARA's free plan offers simple income/expense tracking; proper double-entry only comes with a paid plan. With LumaBill, full Swiss bookkeeping with journal and chart of accounts is included.

AI assistant + MCP server

Scan receipts, categorise expenses and run your books via Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor through a native MCP server. KLARA doesn't offer this.

Focused, no upselling

Instead of a suite with constant upgrade nudges, LumaBill gives you exactly what you need to invoice and keep books - at a clear, lower price.
