What each one is

The product in its own terms, so the numbers below have context.

Paddle

A comprehensive payment and billing service for digital product companies that handles transactions, subscriptions, sales tax compliance, and regulatory requirements across 300+ markets, eliminating the need for separate payment processors and tax administration infrastructure.

Independently observed

Viobusiness

VioBusiness is an iPhone and Android app for invoices, quotes, and expenses. It runs entirely on your phone - no sign-up required, no monthly bill - and keeps your books as private as they used to be on paper. Cross-device cloud backup is an optional add-on, never a default.
