Startup Accounting Software for CPA Firms | HelloBooks Give funded startups investor-grade monthly closes from software under your firm’s name. Track burn, runway inputs and entity structure in one console.

Venture-backed startups

Startup accounting software for CPA firms with funded clients

Once a startup takes institutional money, the monthly close stops being optional. Investors want reports on a schedule, auditors will eventually arrive and the founder wants runway figures they can defend. Firms that serve funded companies run that discipline for them. The HelloBooks White-Label License lets your firm do it in software under your own brand, from seed through later rounds.

A close cadence investors can count on

Funded startups need the books closed by the same point every month so the investor update goes out on time. Your firm console shows each company’s month-end close status and items waiting for review, making it easy to see which portfolio company is holding up the batch.

AI categorisation handles the steady flow of payroll provider debits, software subscriptions and travel, and bank reconciliation keeps operating and treasury accounts tied out. Your reviewers focus on the entries that move runway, such as large vendor commitments or an unexpected refund.

  • Close on a predictable monthly schedule
  • Reconcile operating and treasury accounts
  • Flag large commitments for founder review
  • Deliver investor packs on your templates

Entity structures that grow with each round

A company might start as one entity and add a foreign subsidiary or an IP holding company after a raise. Higher HelloBooks plans support multi-entity books, so each company keeps its own ledger while your team reviews them together. Your firm remains responsible for consolidation, equity accounting, stock compensation treatment and tax positions.

Funded teams often have a fractional controller, a head of operations and a board observer asking for numbers. Clients can invite those people to sign in to your branded app, and your firm adds unlimited staff with no per-seat charges.

A portfolio practice on your own brand

Each startup stays on a published HelloBooks plan, and your firm gets a firm discount on every client plan. HelloBooks bills only the firm. You price your startup service yourself, whether that is a monthly close fee or a package that includes investor reporting and audit preparation support.

Your firm owns the client data and can export it for auditors, acquirers or a successor finance team when the company hires its own controller. Founding firms are being accepted now, a good fit for practices built around venture-funded companies.

White-label license pricing

One flat license covers your brand, unlimited staff and the firm console. Your clients stay on published HelloBooks plans, and your firm gets 20% off each one. Founding firms go live first on a firm subdomain; your own domain and email from your domain follow at full launch.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can we manage several companies from one investor’s portfolio?
Yes. Each startup is its own client company, and your firm console lists all of them with their close status and review items, so you can see which one is holding up investor reporting.
Does HelloBooks handle stock compensation accounting?
No. Your firm remains responsible for equity and stock compensation treatment. HelloBooks gives your team reconciled books and reports to work from when preparing those entries.
Can a board observer get access?
The startup can invite anyone it chooses to its company, and that person signs in through your firm’s branded page, seeing your app name and logo rather than a software vendor’s.
Will our investor reports carry our brand?
Yes. Reports use your firm’s document templates, logo and colours, so everything a founder forwards to investors looks like it came from your practice and matches the closed books.
