The business layer underneath your creator work.
Cadence is not a content calendar, a media kit builder or a brand marketplace. It is the recordkeeping side Canadian creators actually need at tax time.
Every dollar in, in one place.
Save platform payouts, brand deal payments, affiliate income, digital product sales, gifted products and barters. Add the date, source, amount, currency and CAD equivalent — Cadence keeps the structure so you do not have to invent a spreadsheet.
- Eight transaction types built around how creators actually earn
- Multi-currency entries with CAD-equivalent recording
- Receipts, screenshots and notes saved with each record
Deals as business records — not chat threads.
Save each deal from first conversation through paid: brand, contact, agreed fee, gifted product value, deliverables summary, invoice status, payment terms and contract. When a payment lands, link it to the deal in one click.
- Pipeline stages: in discussion → contract sent → in progress → invoiced → paid → completed
- Save whether GST/HST was charged on each deal
- Linked records so income ties back to the deal
PR gifts kept as proper records, not afterthoughts.
Cadence saves the brand, estimated value, whether content was required, whether there was a contract, and what happened to the item — kept, returned, gifted away or sold. The kind of detail your accountant may ask for later.
- Estimated value per gifted product
- Content-required flag and contract status
- Outcome saved: kept, returned, gifted away, sold
Watch the $30K small-supplier threshold.
Cadence keeps a rolling view of your taxable supplies based on the records you add, so you can see where you stand against the small-supplier threshold before it sneaks up.
- Rolling threshold view based on the records you add
- Plain review prompts — never tax advice
- Settings for province and registration status
What may need your attention — first.
The Cadence dashboard surfaces things that may need review: gifted products missing a value, overdue invoices, records missing a receipt, deals missing a contract, and a tax reserve estimate. Calm and useful — not a wall of charts.
- Taxable income, business expenses and gifted product value at a glance
- Tax reserve estimate and net pre-tax income
- “Needs review” queue for items missing details
Hand off a clean business record.
Prepare a clean export your accountant can actually use: income summary by type, brand deal summary, gifted product schedule, expense summary, GST/HST summary, tax reserve summary, items needing review, and a notes index — plus a CSV.
- CSV export ready for any accountant
- Summaries grouped the way an accountant may ask for
- Notes-for-accountant field included
