Direct architecture access
Work with the team designing the ledger and API — shared Slack and working sessions, not a ticket queue.

Founding Design Partners for Embedded Accounting
A small cohort of platforms embedding accounting into their product. You get founding pricing and direct access to the team designing the API — in exchange for candid feedback and a reference once you're live.
- Founding rates, locked in
- Shared Slack, not a ticket queue
- The same ledger NewLedger runs on
A seat at the table, not a support queue
Shape the roadmap
Webhook events, reporting models, and integration patterns get prioritized around your real workload.
Guided integration
Reference implementations and hands-on help mapping your workflows onto a double-entry ledger.
Founding pricing
Locked-in founding-partner rates, honored as you scale — and as the product matures around you.
Who it's for
This is a fit if you are embedding accounting
- You're embedding accounting or a ledger into your own product — not buying a standalone tool.
- You're a vertical SaaS, fintech, or marketplace team with real volume or a concrete launch date.
- You want direct input into the API surface, data model, and audit controls.
- A technical owner can integrate in weeks, not quarters.

Questions partners ask
- How many design partners are you taking?
- A small, deliberate cohort — enough to harden the product against real workloads, few enough that each gets direct attention from the team building Paprel.
- What does it cost?
- Founding-partner pricing, locked in and honored as you scale. We'd rather earn a long-term partner than a short-term invoice; the exchange is candid feedback and a reference once you're live.
- How is this different from the 14-day production trial?
- The trial is self-serve production on Starter or Growth. Design partnership is a working relationship: founding pricing, architecture access, and a reference once you're live. You can start in sandbox either way.
- Is Paprel production-ready?
- Yes — the same primitives run NewLedger, our own accounting product, in production today. Design partners help us harden the API surface, audit model, and reporting against more workloads before broad availability.
- What do you need from us?
- A technical owner who can integrate, honest feedback through the build, and — once you're live and happy — permission to reference you with a logo, quote, or short case study.
