Decision rule
Choose QBOAssistant when the pain is recurring QuickBooks Online execution: entries, documents, questions, reports, and owner review. Choose a broader provider when the business needs professional accounting judgment, tax advice, finance strategy, or a fully outsourced accounting department.
The safest starting point is a narrow two-week workflow: define the QBO access, assign the first recurring queue, require a weekly exception list, and review the first month-end packet before expanding the assistant's scope.
