Getting Started
Set up Axiomatic and create your first entity.
What is Axiomatic?
Axiomatic is a modern, event-sourced, multi-book accounting platform built for startups, funds, and digital-native businesses. It automates double-entry bookkeeping using a custom DSL rule engine, provides field-level encryption, multi-tenant isolation, and deep crypto/DeFi integration.
Core Concepts
- Events — All financial activity enters as typed events (invoices, payments, payroll, etc.)
- Rules — DSL rules automatically map events to debit/credit journal entries
- Books — Each entity can have multiple books (GAAP, Tax, Management) with independent rule packs
- Entities — Organizations, funds, or trusts that each get their own chart of accounts
Quick Start
1. Create an Account
Sign up at app.axiomatic.us. You'll receive a verification email — click to activate your account and provision your tenant database.
2. Create an Entity
Navigate to Settings → Entities and create your first entity. Choose an entity type:
- C_CORP / LLC / S_CORP — Standard business entities
- LP / GP — Fund structures
- TRUST — Trust and fiduciary entities
- PERSONAL — Personal finance tracking
3. Connect Your Bank
Go to Treasury → Linked Accounts and connect via Plaid, or import CSV statements. Transactions will automatically flow into the reconciliation engine.
4. Review and Post Events
The reconciliation engine creates events from your bank transactions. Review them in the Events tab, then the posting engine automatically generates journal entries based on your rule pack.
