SaneBooks 0.1.0

Private books for shielded Zcash. Mac-native. Local-first. Cannot spend.

CipherPay gets you paid privately. ZBooks runs team treasury. SaneBooks is the CPA layer: classify change so it is not income, then hand your accountant an expiring .sanebooks pack — not a permanent viewing key.

Unzip → open SaneBooks.app. Gatekeeper should accept it (Notarized Developer ID). Prefer the ZIP from this release over unsigned local builds.

What you get

You need SaneBooks does
Books without a spend wallet Import a UFVK / Zashi-Zodl data.db — never a seed
Change ≠ income Tag Income / Expense / Change / Fee on the ledger
Something a CPA can open Encrypted, expiring .sanebooks pack + built-in Reader
Honest limits No iCloud vault sync; packs never embed the viewing key

100% Transparent Code under PolyForm Shield — source-available, not casual “open source.”

Tour

1. Start without a seed

Import a viewing key (or pull history from Zashi / Zodl). The app refuses spend keys and seed phrases.

Welcome — import a viewing key

2. Classify the ledger

Income, expenses, and change as separate kinds. YTD totals stay readable; Discreet mode hides balances when you share your screen.

Ledger with classified ZEC rows

3. Scope a proof pack

Pick the date range that belongs in the handoff. Only notes confirmed in that window go into the pack.

New Proof Pack — date range

4. Disclose on purpose

Before save: what is included, what is left out, who it is for, and when it expires. Encrypted pack, CSV, or PDF — you choose how much surface area leaves the Mac.

Share Proof Pack — disclosure audit

5. Accountant opens Reader

No vault key. No chain sync. Unlock the .sanebooks file with the passphrase you shared out of band.

SaneBooks Reader

Install in 60 seconds

  1. Download SaneBooks-0.1.0.zip from this release
  2. Unzip and move SaneBooks.app somewhere durable (Applications is fine)
  3. Open the app → Import Viewing Key (or use the offline demo path while exploring)
  4. Classify → New Proof Pack → save an encrypted pack → open it in Reader

Not this product

  • Not a wallet — cannot send ZEC
  • Not CipherPay — that is checkout; SaneBooks starts after money arrives
  • Not ZBooks — that is team treasury + payouts; SaneBooks is solo owner → CPA on a local Mac
  • Not tax-filing software — your CPA owns the return

Community gap this ships into: Is anyone actually using viewing keys for business accounting?

Built by SaneApps. I built SaneBooks.
