Bookkeeping for saas & tech startups
Stakeville provides bookkeeping for SaaS and tech startups: Stripe and billing-platform reconciliation, deferred revenue treatment for subscriptions, monthly burn and runway reporting, and investor-ready financials that survive diligence.
Startup books get judged twice: monthly by founders watching runway, and eventually by investors in diligence. Cash-basis books that recognize annual subscriptions on day one fail both audiences, revenue looks lumpy and diligence finds the gap.
We reconcile billing platforms to the bank, track deferred revenue so subscriptions recognize as earned, report burn and runway every month, and keep the file clean enough that a data room request is an export, not a project.
Where saas & tech startups books usually break
Annual-plan distortion
Twelve months of revenue booked in one, making MRR and margins meaningless.
Runway guesswork
Burn calculated in a spreadsheet that disagrees with the books.
Diligence exposure
Messy files that slow rounds and shrink trust.
How Stakeville handles it
Billing reconciliation
Stripe and billing platforms tied to bank activity, fees and refunds included.
Deferred revenue
Subscriptions recognized as earned, with a maintained deferral schedule.
Burn & runway reporting
Monthly burn, runway, and spend-by-category from the actual ledger.
Investor-ready file
Clean, consistent books that make diligence boring.
“The payroll clearing account had never balanced in four years. They found every unmatched entry and now it zeros out every single period.”
“They rebuilt our dealer books, set up the sales tax workflow, and found a revenue gap we didn't know existed.”
