Wrenbase

For AI agencies & IT consulting

Bill the enterprise.
Pay your vendors.
Know the margin.

You bill enterprises on seats, usage, and SOW milestones. You pay contract engineers and cloud vendors. Wrenbase gives you one ledger for every dollar in flight, in both directions.

Cash flow coordination

Know what's landed
before you approve what leaves.

Consultancies don't fail from lack of work. They fail from timing. Enterprise AP pays net 60. A contract engineer expects payment on the 1st. The cloud bill autodrafts mid-month. Wrenbase lines up incoming revenue and outgoing obligations so you can see what's landed before you commit what leaves.

Stripe tracks one side. Your cloud console tracks another. Wrenbase tracks both, and shows you the timing between them.

Every side of this rolls into Cash Pulse, the engine that answers the questions you actually ask: what is the margin per engagement, are we ahead this month, and which customers fund the quarter.

As you scale

From three engagements to thirty.

The two-sided ledger that worked at five engagements works at fifty.

Your words, in Wrenbase

You keep your language. It maps underneath.

You don't learn accounting words to use Wrenbase. What you already call things maps onto the ledger objects that make the margin add up.

Common questions

What every founder asks.

We run the firm on a mix of spreadsheets, Stripe, and a cloud console. What changes?
You stop reconciling them by hand. One sheet has enterprise customers, one has milestone invoices, one has contractor and cloud bills, one has the running margin per engagement, and none of them agree. Wrenbase holds all four in the same place. A milestone invoice updates the engagement total. Contractor and cloud bills land in the same inbox. The margin calculates itself. And if you have those sheets today, bring them in. Wrenbase imports customers, vendors, invoices, and transactions from CSV files.
How do I track money in and money out without juggling tools?
Enterprise invoices, contractor and cloud bills, and payment records live in Wrenbase, side by side. Search by customer, by vendor, by month, by status. Export any of it. One source of truth instead of a Stripe tab, a spend export, and an email folder.
How do I receive contractor and vendor bills without losing them in email?
Share your Intake link with contract engineers and subprocessors. They submit a structured bill with the PO or SOW number, amount, and an attachment. The bill lands in your inbox screened and ready to review. No more chasing PDFs through email.
How do I handle usage, seat, and milestone billing for different customers?
One customer is billed per seat each month. Another is on SOW milestones. A third is metered on usage with a platform fee on top. Set the schedule and mode per customer, and Wrenbase runs each one on its own cadence.
How do I bill an enterprise customer in their currency?
Pick the currency per customer. Bill in EUR, GBP, CAD, INR, and more. Each invoice issues and tracks in the currency you pick. We do not convert anything; you see each currency on its own line in your revenue view.
Will the invoice survive enterprise procurement?
Yes. Reference the PO and SOW on the invoice, put your logo on every invoice on the free plan, and add custom colors and theme on paid plans. The page your customer's AP team sees carries your brand, not Wrenbase's, and matches what procurement expects to receive.
How do I review and approve vendor bills before they are paid?
Every inbound bill lands in your Bills inbox marked New. Review it against the SOW, approve it, mark it paid when you settle. The whole flow is tracked. Wrenbase records the payment; you initiate it through your bank or Stripe.
Can I see margin per engagement?
Yes. Each build or engagement is a project with its own live P&L: what you billed, what you collected, what you spent on contract engineers and cloud, and the margin. Fixed-bid milestones and usage-based work roll up separately.
