What you get for $12 a month (beta price)
Every tier includes the whole product. There is no “upgrade for GST/HST tracking.” The only difference between plans is billing cadence.
T2125 line-by-line expense mapping
Every expense lands on a specific CRA T2125 line as you enter it. Year end is an export, not a reconciliation.
Quick Method remittance calculator
Built in for all 13 provinces and territories. Pick a province, enter revenue, see your remittance.
Google Drive receipt scanning
Drop receipts in a Drive folder. NorthOS reads them, categorizes them to the right T2125 line, and attaches them to the transaction.
North AI bookkeeping assistant
Write-capable. Categorizes transactions, answers tax questions in plain language, and updates your books through a normal chat.
Mileage log
CRA-compliant business-use mileage tracking with the per-kilometre rate for the current tax year built in.
Provincial sales tax (PST, QST, RST)
Automatic handling for BC, SK, MB, and QC. Marketplace facilitator rules for Etsy, eBay, and similar platforms baked in.
CRA deadline alerts
Installment dates, GST/HST filing deadlines, and the T1 due date surfaced on the dashboard before they bite.
Who NorthOS is for
Sole proprietors and side hustlers in Canada. If one of these describes you, NorthOS was built for the way you actually file.
Side hustlers
Etsy, eBay, Mercari, Uber, DoorDash, freelance work alongside a day job. Cross the $30K threshold on purpose, not by accident.
Resellers and flippers
Per-item cost basis, T2125 COGS lines populated, GST/HST threshold tracking, and marketplace facilitator rules.
Freelancers and consultants
Project-based income across clients, USD conversion at the CRA monthly rate, and tax set-aside that updates as you log income.
Trades and contractors
Mileage and vehicle costs to T2125 Line 9281, tools and materials on the right line, and GST tracked as you bill each job.

How the 14-day trial works
You sign up with an email address. No credit card is required to start. The trial gives you the full product for 14 days: import your bank transactions, scan your receipts, see your GST/HST threshold tracker, run a Quick Method calculation, and generate a sample T2125 export.
At the end of the 14 days, you choose a billing cadence (monthly or annual) and enter payment details to continue. If you do not enter payment details, the account is paused, your data is retained for a reasonable window, and you can come back later without rebuilding your books.
The beta annual rate is $119 CAD for the full year (about $9.92 a month, roughly two months free vs. monthly). The regular annual price after beta ends will be $159 CAD. The beta monthly rate is $12 CAD billed every month; the regular monthly price will be $16 CAD. Subscribers who join during beta keep their rate permanently. Same product either way.
Frequently asked questions

There is no permanent free plan. NorthOS includes a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. After the trial, the beta price is $12 CAD per month or $119 CAD per year. The regular price after beta ends will be $16 CAD per month or $159 CAD per year. Subscribers who join during beta lock in the lower rate for as long as they stay subscribed.
What is the beta pricing and does it last?
While NorthOS is in beta, monthly is $12 CAD and annual is $119 CAD per year. These are limited-time prices. The regular price will be $16 CAD per month or $159 CAD per year. If you subscribe during beta, your rate is locked in permanently as long as you keep your subscription active.
Do I need a credit card to start the trial?
No. The trial begins without a card on file. You will be asked to enter payment details at the end of the trial if you want to continue.
What is included in NorthOS?
Every plan includes Google Drive receipt scanning, T2125 line-by-line expense mapping, the GST/HST $30,000 registration-threshold tracker, the Quick Method remittance calculator for all 13 provinces and territories, the mileage log, the North AI bookkeeping assistant, and provincial sales tax (PST/QST/RST) handling for BC, SK, MB, and QC.
Is GST/HST tracking included?
Yes, in every plan. NorthOS tracks your rolling four-quarter revenue against the $30,000 mandatory-registration threshold, calculates your remittance under both the Regular Method and the Quick Method, and handles provincial sales tax for BC, SK, MB, and QC. There is no extra tier or add-on for any of this.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Monthly plans can be cancelled at any time and stop billing at the end of the current period. Annual plans run for the year you paid for and do not auto-renew without explicit consent at the end.
What's the difference between Monthly and Annual?
Same product, different billing. The beta monthly rate is $12 CAD per month. The beta annual rate is $119 CAD per year, which works out to roughly $9.92 a month (about two months free vs. paying monthly). Pick monthly if you want flexibility; pick annual if you want the best rate locked in.
Where is my data hosted?
NorthOS is built in Ontario, and your bookkeeping data is hosted in Canada. The product is designed specifically for Canadian sole proprietors and side hustlers, and Canadian residency for the data is part of that design.
Do you give receipts for tax purposes?
Yes. Your NorthOS subscription is a deductible business expense and a receipt is available in your billing settings after every charge.
