We’re not a single bookkeeper or a rotating cast of contractors. Pilot gives you a dedicated U.S.-based team backed by purpose-built software, so your finances stay accurate, accessible, and aligned with your growth. You get strategy, not just spreadsheets.
Houston is big on energy, healthcare, construction, logistics, real estate, and tech—and we’re ready for all of it. Whether you're tracking inventory, managing multiple entities, or trying to understand your burn rate, we’ve likely seen it before and can help you stay ahead.
You need a team that understands your business—not just your area code. Pilot works with companies across the U.S., including those in complex, high-growth cities like Houston. We’re built to support you remotely, without ever missing the local context that matters.
Cash bookkeeping tracks money when it moves in or out. Accrual bookkeeping records income and expenses when they’re earned, giving a more accurate view of your business.
Yes, support is included with every plan. You’ll be paired with a dedicated finance expert who knows your business, and you can reach out anytime you have questions about your books, taxes, or financial strategy.
Our bookkeeping and tax plans are based on an annual subscription model with transparent pricing that scales with your expense rate and your business needs such as connected institutions, bills, and invoices. You can check out our pricing page for more details.
