One-piece QuickBooks → Google Sheets sync (Zapier replacement wedge)

A single product that pulls accounting data from QuickBooks into Google Sheets without complex multi-step Zapier flows.

Summary

Target the common Zapier pair QuickBooks + Sheets by building a focused app that consolidates creates/updates/deletes into one reliable sync interface. Make setup and UX far simpler than multi-step Zapier zaps and charge for higher-volume use.
