Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to start working with an accounting/finance firm like Graphite?
In reality, the second you start developing your product and spending money is when you need to start keeping clean books. The earlier you do so, the more money you will save in the long run and the cleaner your books will be for fundraising.
How much does it cost?
Our pricing structure is simple and fair. Engagements start at $1,250/mo and grow based on your goals. Because we act as a long-term partner, all of our engagements are custom-tailored to your specific needs.
Can you help us transition to Graphite?
Yes. Most of our clients come from other firms. Every client is staffed with a dedicated onboarding manager who handles the entire data migration and transition process so you don’t have to.
Who will be my point of contact?
Every client is assigned a dedicated team of two to four members. We define a main point of contact and offer communication via Slack instances and dedicated email aliases for your entire Graphite team.
What is the communication cadence like?
We speak with most of our clients on a regular basis—some daily, others via weekly or bi-weekly standing meetings. We operate just like an internal finance team would.
Do you help companies set up their software and tech stack?
Yes! We are a tech-focused firm. We recommend and set up various tools and softwares, and while we have preferred platforms, we can easily mold to the softwares you already use.
What stage company is the best fit for Graphite?
We work with startups at every stage—from founders just starting out to growing companies with hundreds of employees. Our sweet spot is well-capitalized startups that have found product-market fit.
How does your pricing compare to a full-time person?
Fractional work is significantly more efficient. You only pay for the exact effort you need at that moment, without the overhead of benefits, downtime, or vacations associated with a full-time hire.
Where is your team based?
Our hubs are in New York and Florida, but our team is fully remote across the United States, allowing us to work across all domestic time zones.
What are your security protocols?
We have a dedicated internal security team and take data protection extremely seriously, following rigorous industry-standard security protocols.
