Introducing Digits Desktop

We hear you. You installed QuickBooks Desktop from a CD-ROM in '97. You've run a thousand clients on it. You haven't paid for accounting software in years. When your clients asked for cloud access, you set up a remote desktop connection, called it “cloud,” and carried on.

You've been hearing from Intuit about “the sunset” for what feels like a decade now. Every year, another version number quietly goes dark, and you just hope it’s not the one you're on.

Yesterday, we launched Digits on mobile. Today, we're going the other direction.

Introducing Digits Desktop. Yes, brand new desktop accounting software in 2026! (Take a breath. We’ll explain.)

Here’s what happened

Accountants fell in love with Desktop because it worked! Then, the biggest name in desktop accounting stopped investing in it. Usage declined. They pointed to the decline as proof the market had moved on, killed the product, and sent the sunset emails.

That doesn’t mean Desktop is dead. Yet.

So we built it

It doesn't have a version number. There is no Digits Desktop 2026. There will be no Digits Desktop 2027. We won’t ask you to pay for the same software twice because the calendar year changed.

It does your accounting at 3am. You don’t even have to keep your computer on. We've figured out how to make desktop software work while your desktop is off. Offline to the max. Digits categorizes transactions and reconciles bank statements while you sleep. When you open Digits Desktop in the morning, it has already flagged the four transactions that need your attention. No desktop product has ever done that. Most couldn't even download your bank feed without you clicking a button.

It's free (basically). Digits Desktop is free for everyone with a Digits account. Just like the desktop software you already know and love. We want you to feel at home. You liked it when nothing changed. We heard you.

System requirements: A desktop computer (optional). A healthy skepticism of the cloud. The fading memory of software that once respected your time.

Happy April Fools' Day!

Jokes aside

The sunset notices aren’t a joke. If you're dealing with one right now, we built something real for you. It's not a desktop app. It's better.

Head to digits.com/desktop/ and experience the future of 24/7 AI-native accounting. Even when you power down your desktop.
