A Critical Resource from Day One
Every startup needs forward-looking financial guidance to help them make better decisions and craft a compelling pitch to investors. Imagine having access to insightful answers to your most pressing questions, such as:
"Without airCFO, we would have had a lot of difficulties in scaling up as our business became more complex. AirCFO was able to grow alongside us and deliver on its valued proposition consistently."
-John Kobs, CEO and Co-Founder, Apartment List
"At the beginning of a startup and for a very long time, if there's a lot of work but not enough to hire a full-time finance person, it usually falls on the CEO to do that work. That takes away from the mind space to grow the business which is supposed to be the CEO's main workflow. By using a fractional finance service, specifically airCFO, I was able to free a lot of mental space to go focus on growing the team and product."

airCFO is for fast-growing startups who want to maintain a best-in-class back-office as they scale. For those startups able and willing to invest in their back office, we’ll be the best match for price and total value.
airCFO is best suited for startups looking for a long-term partner and willing to hand over some level of ownership and responsibility for your company’s back office. We can build, manage and own from the simple to the complex; from bookkeeping to fractional-CFO duties.
An ideal client has a budget of at least $1000/mo and is willing to invest more in the finance function as the company scales. We support most of our clients from day one through exit.
Based on needs we identify, we will partner your startup with one or more dedicated team members in your area(s) of need (i.e. Accounting, Fractional CFO Services, People Operations, and/or Tax).
Our team will have regular defined duties (e.g. weekly, monthly or annually) and you will also be able to scale up our hours as needed for any projects that come up during the year.
We don’t require long-term contracts, and we won’t put you on proprietary systems or software.
This depends on how much clean-up work is involved. If there is no material cleanup, most clients are materially through onboarding and will have their first deliverable from airCFO within 30 days from our onboarding call.
If there is a material clean up project such as going backward and cleaning up prior years, we will need more information.
Our clients have a budget of at least $1000/month for airCFO, and most of our clients fall somewhere between $1,000 and $3,000 per month.
We request that you're looking for a long-term accounting and financial services solution when considering airCFO. Most of our clients work with us for 2-3+ years until they outgrow an outsourced solution and need to hire an in-house team.
