Vermont has a 3.35-8.75% income tax. Progressive income tax up to 8.75%. High cost of living. Small market. Tourism economy (skiing, fall foliage). No local income taxes.
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $1,092/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it billing, a system for jobs, or a invoicing system — most fraud examiners in Burlington patch together HoneyBook, FreshBooks, Calendly, QuickBooks and other monthly services. That's $1,092/year in subscriptions. Over the next 5 years at today's prices, that adds up to $5,460.
Nexa lets you own your tools. Your CRM, billing, appointment management, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — all in one system. A single action books a client. A single action generates an invoice. No bouncing between tools. No middleware. No per-connection charges. It's a pay once — cut costs immediately. For fraud examiners in Burlington weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
You start most engagements with a suspicion and a pile of transactions. The morning is data work: running the vendor file against the employee file looking for matching addresses, scanning for duplicate invoice numbers and round-dollar payments that don't fit the pattern. Each anomaly becomes a lead, and you track leads obsessively because an investigation that loses the thread loses the case. By late morning you're planning interviews, and sequence is everything; you talk to the periphery first and the subject last, so the suspect doesn't get a chance to align stories or shred records. Midday you're logging evidence into chain of custody, because if this ends in termination or a criminal referral, sloppy custody hands the defense an easy win. Afternoons might be the interview itself, where you build rapport, lay out what the records show, and work toward an admission without ever crossing into coercion. You document constantly, to a professional standard, because the report you write could put someone out of a job or in front of a prosecutor, and it has to be fair and bulletproof. The job is part data analyst, part interviewer, part evidence custodian, and the through-line is documentation so disciplined that the conclusions are unassailable.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a fraud examiner's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a fraud examiner — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
