Pilot.com founder here. This is exactly the startup that we're working on! We have 500+ customers including 100+ YC companies and fully take care of bookkeeping + taxes. Feel free to drop me a note at [e-mail] if I can help.

Fascinating. However, being an accountant, I have to wonder how it's possible to scale. With (accrual) accounting being so dependent on management's estimates, how does it work? Do you offer audit protection? Do you work with ext. auditors? Do you provide GAAP / tax guidance?

[jbarnold]

Startups and other SMBs have been using third party bookkeeping providers long before Pilot.com. We provide essentially the same interface/service as those companies, but we are leveraging technology to a much greater degree, which we think allows us to provide higher quality books and better service (ask our customers for their verdict there). We can connect companies with ways of meeting their audit and GAAP/tax guidance needs (providers who we work with regularly).

Pilot is amazing! They have delivered on exactly your quote for us, except that I do often think about how helpful they are :-).

Do you have a cheaper tier for people that are sole-proprietors or have only a handful of transactions a month?

[jbarnold]

Today our lowest cost tier is $195/mo. Hopefully in the future we will have an even lower cost option.

Extremely happy Pilot customer for render.com. Can't go wrong with them.

We have a great experience with Pilot (YC W18 company)

Do you offer that for freelancers?

Take a look at Keeper Tax - not quite the same but I think might address what you're looking for (https://www.keepertax.com/).
