Stephan Kulik

Editor-in-Chief, LedgerLab

Role

I run editorial operations for LedgerLab — independent reviews of 15+ AI accounting and bookkeeping platforms. Responsible for testing methodology, pricing verification against vendor pages, and publishing cadence.

Editorial focus areas

  • Full-suite AI accounting platforms (QuickBooks, FreshBooks, Xero, Zoho Books, Sage)
  • AI-first bookkeeping services (Zeni, Pilot, Docyt, Vic.ai, Digits, Puzzle)
  • SMB and freelancer accounting workflows
  • Migration guides (switching from QuickBooks, Bench shutdown migration)
  • SOC 2 / security-compliance evaluation for accounting software

Research methodology

I research each platform in depth: I verify pricing and plan details against vendor pages, work through official product documentation for AI capabilities (JAX reconciliation, Intuit Assist, Docyt HpAI), and synthesize user reviews across G2, Capterra, and Trustpilot. Every factual claim is sourced and dated; anything that cannot be verified is flagged as vendor-reported.
