Built by Founders, for Founders

Built for the Stretch in Between

Pre-seed to Series B companies fall into a gap. The Big Four and large mid-market firms are built for audits, public-company readiness, and enterprise budgets. A seed-stage company that hires them gets a junior team, a rate card designed for someone else, and a partner it meets once at kickoff. At the other end, bookkeeping apps and low-cost shops stop at the ledger, leaving founders to stitch together a tax preparer, a payroll provider, and a fractional CFO when it's time to raise. Even many startup-focused firms sell CFO work as a separate product, or only take companies that have already raised. StartupCFO is built for the stretch in between, with no funding minimum: one team that runs your financial stack, from bookkeeping and accounting to tax, strategic finance, and fundraising support.

That single team is the advantage. Nothing gets lost passing between vendors, because the team that closes your books also prepares your returns and builds your board and investor materials, all from the same numbers in ClariFi. Agentic AI aids the work. Our experts sign off on every number. Pricing is flat and monthly, sized for a startup budget, CPA support is part of every plan rather than billed by the hour, and we get you live within two business days. We want to grow with you, from your first clean close through Series B diligence, so you can stay focused on product, customers, and go-to-market while we act as your finance function.
