Monthly bookkeeping
Know your burn by the 5th.
GAAP-accurate books closed every month, plus a founder-readable report on burn, runway, and margins — no accounting degree required.

- GAAP-Accurate
- Founder-Readable Reports
What this entails
Books that answer questions before you ask.
Founder-led bookkeeping usually means a categorization backlog, mystery charges, and a P&L nobody trusts. Investor updates become guesswork, and tax season becomes archaeology.
We run your full monthly close: transaction categorization tuned to startups, bank and card reconciliations, revenue recognition, payroll and contractor accruals, deferred revenue, and prepaid schedules — then a plain-English report showing where the money went and how long it lasts.

Questions
Bookkeeping, answered.
Our books are months behind. Can you catch up?
Yes — catch-up is how most engagements start. We quote the backlog as a fixed-fee cleanup (typically two weeks), then roll straight into the monthly rhythm.
Which tools do you work with?
Your accounting platform, payroll provider, bank and payments stack. If you run on something else, we’ll meet you there.
Do we get reports investors accept?
Yes. P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, and burn analytics in GAAP format — the same package that passes diligence in our Series A prep work.
Can we cancel or pause?
Monthly plans are month-to-month after an initial quarter. Pause during a quiet stretch; your books stay clean and waiting.
