FAQs
How do you handle complex revenue recognition like ASC 606 for SaaS?
This is one of our core specialties. We manage the entire process, implementing proper controls for deferred revenue and recognizing it over the life of the customer contract. Our approach ensures you are fully ASC 606 compliant, providing accurate, GAAP-compliant financial statements that give you and your investors a true picture of your company’s performance.
Can we really get R&D tax credits for software development?
Absolutely. The R&D tax credit is specifically designed for activities like software development. Qualifying expenses include developer wages, costs for contractors, and supplies used in the process of creating new or improved software, platforms, or algorithms. Our specialists have helped tech companies claim millions in credits for work they were already doing.
We're preparing for our next funding round. How can you help?
We act as a key part of your fundraising team. We ensure your financials are pristine, investor-ready, and can withstand the rigors of due diligence. We provide accurate historical statements, help prepare financial models and forecasts, and ensure your key metrics (MRR, LTV:CAC, Churn) are solid and defensible, giving investors confidence.
We use Stripe, Gusto, and other platforms. How do you integrate?
Our tech-powered platform is built to integrate seamlessly with the modern tech stack.
