How it works

Five steps take you from sign-up to your first answer. Here is what you click in 2diff Business at each one, and what the app does with your books in return.

Step 1

Create your account

Sign up at 2diff.io. Free runs on sample data with no card; to connect your books, subscribe to 2diff Business Silver for $19.99/month. Cancel anytime.

Step 2

Connect to QuickBooks®

Open 2diff Business from your dashboard and click Connect to QuickBooks® in the sidebar. You will be redirected to Intuit's login page. Log in with your QuickBooks® credentials on their site. We never see your password. Review the permissions we are requesting and approve them.

Step 3

Your data loads

2diff Business retrieves your financial data from QuickBooks® Online. Your P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, and chart of accounts are processed and ready. Data is fetched on demand and may be saved to your account so it loads quickly and trends can be compared over time. We never create, change, or delete anything in your QuickBooks® account.

Step 4

Review your reports

Automated P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, and year-to-date summaries are available immediately. Period-over-period comparisons and ratio analysis run automatically.

Step 5

Ask the AI

On Silver, open AI Insights and ask questions in plain language. The AI answers from your actual financial data, your specific numbers. Choose from a curated set of models across OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google, with new models added as they ship. Switch models anytime. The AI models page shows which model suits which question.

What we access, and what we don't

2diff Business connects through Intuit's OAuth 2.0 sign-in. Intuit's consent screen covers your accounting data; we only read the reports listed below and never touch your credentials or payroll records.

What we read

  • Company name and fiscal year settings
  • Chart of accounts
  • Profit and loss data
  • Balance sheet data
  • Cash flow data

What we never access

  • Your QuickBooks® password (entered only on Intuit's site)
  • Bank account credentials or numbers
  • Individual transactions, invoices, bills, or customer and vendor lists
  • Tax returns or payroll details
  • Employee Social Security numbers
  • Credit card numbers
  • Any data outside the permissions you approve during setup

How your data is protected

Encrypted Transmission

All data between your browser, our servers, and QuickBooks® is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher.

Encrypted Storage

Data is encrypted at rest by Google Cloud Platform (AES-256). Access tokens carry an additional application layer of authenticated encryption.

Token Security

Access tokens are short-lived and automatically refreshed. They are never exposed to your browser.

Audit Logging

We maintain logs of all data access for security monitoring and compliance.

Setup side by side: 2diff Business Silver and Bronze

The walkthrough above is the connected path. 2diff Business Bronze skips the connection: you type a few annual totals and get statements, ratios, trends, and a forecast built from them. Here is how the two setups differ.

QuickBooks® connection uses Intuit's login system. 2diff Business never sees your QuickBooks® password.
