Questions
How is this different from my accountant?
Your accountant keeps you compliant. We use the same numbers to forecast cash, set prices and plan growth, and we sit in on the decisions.
How much of your time do we get?
A named CFO plus an analyst. Growth clients typically get 3–4 days of work a month, plus same-day answers on WhatsApp.
Is our data safe?
We sign an NDA before onboarding, use read-only access wherever possible, and never share data with third parties.
What's the minimum commitment?
None. Plans are month to month with 30 days' notice. Most clients stay 2+ years.
