Could you build this?

Partial Double-entry bookkeeping, invoicing, and reconciliation are vibe-codeable, but U.S. payroll requires accurate, continually updated federal and state tax tables, withholding rules, and filing compliance that an AI assistant cannot reliably supply.

What it would actually take: A desktop app (for example Electron or Tauri with a local SQLite store) could cover the bookkeeping core and QuickBooks import. The payroll module needs accounting and payroll-tax expertise, licensed or vetted tax-table data, and ongoing maintenance as rates change, plus testing against real payroll scenarios.
