The problem

Most rounds are lost in the numbers, not the pitch

Not because the business is weak, but because the finance function was built for filing taxes and is then asked to carry a diligence process.

38%

of failed startups cite running out of cash or failing to raise new capital as a reason, the most common one on the list.

CB Insights startup post-mortems
74%

of high-growth internet startups that fail do so from premature scaling, growing faster than their own fundamentals supported.

How we think about it

3 principles, in the order they matter

Everything below follows from these, including the work we turn down.

01

Cash is the first question, not the last

Runway, collection timing and burn get answered before anyone models next year's revenue.

Runway seen early
02

Grow only as fast as the numbers hold

Hiring, spend and commitments get gated against unit economics rather than optimism.

Growth priced
03

Defensible beats flattering

A number you can defend under questioning is worth more than a bigger one you cannot.

Audit-ready
Services

One team across the full finance stack

Most companies source their numbers from an accountant and their story from a designer, then spend the raise reconciling the two.

The workWhat it involvesWho it is for
Financial models & FP&A Driver-based three-statement models, and the monthly cadence that keeps them true. Founders raising, and teams replanning
Fractional CFO & controller Senior ownership of close, board reporting and runway, by the month. Funded teams without a CFO
Accounting & bookkeeping Books kept clean monthly, so every figure above starts from something real. Anyone whose books will be read
Tax filing & planning Federal, state and local returns, signed by a licensed CPA partner, and the planning that comes first. Anyone with a US entity
Investor materials Deck, plan and teaser, built off the model rather than reconciled to it. Founders in market now
Business valuation 3 methods cross-checked, with a number you can defend in the room. Sellers, buyers and ESOP planners
Quality of earnings Normalised EBITDA with every adjustment evidenced before a buyer asks. Sell-side owners and funds in diligence

The standard

Every number here was defended in a real room

Board packs, diligence calls, lender questions. The work is judged where someone has an incentive to disagree.
