Metreks vs TrueProfit

Estimated profit vs reconciled books.

Profit apps are a big step up from guessing. But an estimate built from settings isn't the same as books built from what actually happened.

TrueProfit is built for

A fast profit dashboard for Shopify stores: revenue from orders, minus product, shipping, fee and ad costs you configure or sync.

Metreks is built for

Full accounting: every order, fee, refund, payout and bank or card transaction in double-entry books, reconciled to your statements.

Where estimates drift

A profit app is only as accurate as its settings. If a product's cost changed, if a fee rate depends on the card or country, if a chargeback arrives weeks later, or if a cost never made it into the app, the number drifts away from what's in your bank. You usually find out at tax time.

Metreks doesn't rely on settings for the money that already moved. It books the actual supplier charges, the actual fees, every refund and every bank and card transaction, then checks the result against your statements. If the books and the bank disagree, you see exactly why.

More than a dashboard

Because Metreks keeps real books, you also get the balance sheet, cash flow, sales tax by state, month-end close and accountant access, so it replaces your accounting software instead of sitting on top of it.

Questions

Straight answers.

Is TrueProfit wrong?+
It's an estimate, and good estimates are useful. Metreks gives you the reconciled number your accountant and the bank agree with.
Can I compare the two?+
Yes. Founding brands often do exactly that: run last month through Metreks and compare it to their dashboard.
