Scalable startup bookkeeping that grows with you

Get the bookkeeping, tax prep, and accounting expertise every startup founder needs.

Just a few of the startups we’ve supported over the years

We know startups—because we’ve been one

Our bookkeeping, tax, and CFO services are built for VC–backed companies. From fundraising to SaaS models, you’ll get the financial support you need. Your monthly statements also come with your burn rate–so you and investors know the numbers that matter.

You’ll get a dedicated finance expert

With Pilot, you get an advisor who knows your startup business and growth stage. We’ll help set up your full finance stack for scale, including preferred cash–sweep accounts, payroll, and expense management. We’re your partner.

Accurate books, every month

We connect directly with your tools (QuickBooks, Gusto, Expensify, and more) and double-check everything. Our software auto-categorizes and flags issues, and your finance expert reviews every set of books before they go out. The result? Financials you can trust—and zero guesswork.

What our customers are saying

We have a complete view into our cash position with Pilot, which fundamentally shapes how we think about our product, our company, and where we want to go.

That connection with our bookkeeper and the ability to get an answer whenever I have a question is what gives me confidence.

Growth scenarios we support:
Raising capital

"Investors want financial projections. How do I model different growth scenarios?"

Scaling teams

"What headcount can I afford given our burn rate?"

Optimize your pricing

"Should we be trying product-led growth?"

Planning Your Exit

"We got an offer, but is this the exit we want?"

These complex questions require expertise that the average bookkeeping firm can’t provide. We've helped 1,000s of startups navigate everything from raising capital to valuations to international expansion.
