LedgerOS vs RCReports
The same shape of analysis — duties, occupation codes, published federal wage data, a signed memo — except it is on every seat and every client instead of being metered by how many of each you bought.
Every module, every seat. No tiers and nothing priced per module.
On RCReports you are still buying, separately: duties drafted from a plain description; signed memo frozen at signature; memo filed to the client automatically; runs inside the practice you already work in. Add up your stack →

LedgerOS columns describe the product as it ships today. Competitor columns are summarized conservatively from each vendor’s public materials, and list prices were last confirmed on 20 August 2026. Where we could not verify a competitor’s behavior we say so rather than guess.
RCReports is a specialist that has spent years on this one question, with a longer track record in front of examiners and a deeper toolkit around it — several report approaches rather than our cost method with an investor cross-check, audit and litigation support, batch sending, client upload, a wage lookup and an entity planning tool. A firm whose practice is built on these studies should look hard at them.
it is on the $129 seat, so no plan decides how many of your clients get one or how many of your staff can run one — and the signed memo files itself to the client as a workpaper inside the system where the return is, rather than in a tool you export from.
One seat, 18 modules
The reason the price comparison above is not like-for-like: a LedgerOS seat is not a practice-management seat with add-ons available. Every module is in it, at one price, and there is no tier that withholds one.
