Full-service management, built for you

01

Investor-ready outcomes

Books, reconciliations, and reporting kept clean year-round — so due diligence is never the thing that slows your raise.

02

A decade of experience

Ten-plus years guiding tech startups across the Bay Area from their first hire to a successful exit.

03

Strategic counsel

Expert part-time Controllers, CPAs, and CFOs — the caliber of financial leadership larger companies pay full-time for.

Why it matters now

Waiting
costs you.

  • 01

    Disorganized books turn a routine due-diligence request into weeks of scrambling — right when momentum matters most.

  • 02

    Without a real controller function, burn rate and runway become guesswork — and guesswork is how founders run out of cash by surprise.

How CountWorks works

CountWorks has spent over a decade providing financial services to tech startups across the San Francisco Peninsula and South Bay — guiding founders from their first hire all the way to a successful exit.

Instead of a single generalist bookkeeper, you get a team of expert part-time Controllers, CPAs, and CFOs, scaled to what an early-stage company actually needs.

The cost of waiting

The cost of waiting can sink your runway.

Now is the time to change the scenario — before the gap between where your finances are and where they need to be becomes the thing standing in your way.

Talk to a specialist

A month without clean books is runway lost.

Investors don't wait for your bookkeeping to catch up.

Every day without a plan is runway you don't get back.
