Trust and correctness

Calm is earned through correctness, not silence.

Prosper is designed to reduce bookkeeping anxiety without hiding risk. If something could impact correctness, it surfaces. Trust comes from conservative automation and explainable decisions.

Guardrails that prevent silent failure

Conservative by default

Prosper does not optimize for being invisible at all costs. If something affects correctness, cash, or tax exposure, it surfaces it.

Explainable decisions

Every categorization includes reasoning and source evidence so you can review or correct it.

Fail-closed posture

If the system cannot compute status, it signals attention instead of claiming everything is fine.

Accountant-ready outputs

Clean exports and predictable structure make handoff reviewable and auditable.

What Prosper will not do

We do not prioritize hiding complexity at all costs. If a transaction is uncertain, it must be reviewed. If reconciliation is incomplete, it must be surfaced. Calm is the outcome of correctness, not the absence of signals.

How this helps accountants

Prosper keeps the ledger clean and traceable so accountants spend less time untangling history and more time validating decisions. The goal is fewer surprises, not more automation for its own sake.
