Our software

Software: the software Qwasar designs, publishes and maintains, starting with Qompta, free Swiss accounting.

Alongside our clients’ projects, we build our own software. It is free, its code is public and anyone can check what it does.

Qompta

Swiss accounting, made simple.

Qompta keeps the books of several Swiss companies on your computer: quotes, contracts, invoices with Swiss QR-bill, cash flow, taxes and the FTA VAT return.

No account, no server, no subscription. The data stays encrypted on your machine and nothing goes online.

How Qompta works

The database lives in memory while you work. Only a file sealed with AES-256-GCM is ever written to disk. The key stays on your computer in the system vault. It is shown to you once as a recovery key: nobody else holds it.

Amounts are stored as whole cents and rates in basis points: no rounding makes a cent disappear. The VAT return uses the official FTA codes, from 200 to 910.

Nothing is irreversible. A deletion can be cancelled for five seconds, a change can be undone afterwards and an encrypted backup is written at every launch.
