Private beta · for the self-employed in Switzerland

Bookkeeping in minutes. Then it's Fyrabe.

Write QR-bill invoices, snap your receipts, get the year-end closing in one click: simple bookkeeping for your Swiss sole proprietorship. Only the essentials, done well.

The beta is invite-only. Drop us a line about what you do.

Four things, done well

Fyrabe covers the simplified bookkeeping a Swiss sole proprietorship may keep (Art. 957 CO): income, expenses and the position at year end. No double entry, no chart of accounts to learn, no settings screens.

QR-bill invoices

Add the lines, done: a PDF with the Swiss QR-bill payment part, emailed straight from Fyrabe. Gapless numbers, status from draft to paid. Invoices in German, French, Italian or English.

Receipts from a photo

Snap the receipt or upload a PDF. Fyrabe reads vendor, date, amount and currency and suggests the category; you check and confirm. Foreign currencies at the rate of the receipt date, a warning for duplicates.

Categories, not accounts

Plain categories such as "Vehicle" or "Software", each on an account of the Swiss Kontenrahmen KMU. Private-use shares, for your phone or car, are deducted for you.

Year-end closing in one click

Fyrabe first checks that everything is complete and shows what is missing. Then a PDF for your tax return and a ZIP with every receipt, sorted by account: for you or your Treuhänder.

  • Simplified bookkeeping under Art. 957 CO for sole proprietorships up to CHF 500,000 turnover
  • Traceable for 10 years: confirmed entries stay unchanged, corrections are reversals, receipts carry a checksum

Questions

What does "Fyrabe" mean?

Swiss German for "Feierabend", the end of the workday. Bookkeeping should be done so fast that you can call it a day sooner.

Who is Fyrabe for?

For the self-employed with a sole proprietorship (Einzelfirma) in Switzerland who keep simplified bookkeeping: income, expenses, the position at year end. Double-entry accounting, payroll or inventory are deliberately left out.

How do I get access?

Fyrabe is in a private beta; signing up needs an invitation. Write to hello@fyrabe.app.

What does it cost?

The pricing is not decided yet.

Can I file VAT (MWST) with Fyrabe?

No, not yet. Fyrabe is aimed first at the self-employed who are not registered for VAT.

What happens to my receipts?

To be read automatically, the receipt goes to a specialised service in the USA, without location data from the photo; it is not used there to train AI models. The original stays unchanged in Fyrabe. Everything else is in the privacy policy.

Does Fyrabe replace my accountant?

No. Fyrabe gives no tax advice. It makes sure your year is complete and tidy in two files you can hand to the tax office or your Treuhänder.
