About

At Pilot, we combine intelligent software with world-class finance professionals to deliver accounting services that startups and small businesses actually look forward to using. Our team of US-based experts, including seasoned CFOs and operators who have been in your shoes, takes the back-office work off your plate so you can focus on building your business. We deploy daily or more often, iterate rapidly based on customer feedback, and believe that the best products come from small, empowered teams with real ownership.

Founded by three-time entrepreneurs who previously built and sold companies together, Pilot understands the unique challenges startups face. We've helped thousands of companies from pre-seed through nine-figure Series C rounds, providing bookkeeping, tax preparation, and CFO services that scale with you. Our technology automates the mundane while our people deliver strategic insights - answering questions like 'Where can I cut costs without hurting growth?' and 'Do I have runway to make this hire?' With offices in San Francisco and Nashville, backed by Sequoia and Index Ventures, we're building the financial back office we wish we'd had when we were founders.
