FrequentlyAsked Questions
What is a tech accountant?
A tech accountant is a financial professional with expertise in the technology sector, helping companies manage things like recurring revenue, software development costs, fundraising compliance, and R&D tax credits.
Do I need a CPA or just an accountant for my software business?
A CPA can offer a broader scope of services, like audits and formal tax representation. If you're raising money or issuing equity, it's often smart to work with a CPA who specializes in tech startups.
How much do accountants charge for tech companies?
Bookkeeping: $300–$2,500/month Payroll: $20–$100 per employee/month
Tax prep: $500–$2,000+
Audits: $2,000–$15,000+
Many firms offer fixed-fee or retainer pricing for startups.

What accounting software do tech companies use?
QuickBooks, Xero, and NetSuite are popular for SaaS and startup accounting. Larger companies may also use Sage or ERP tools for more complex workflows.
What is revenue recognition for SaaS companies?
It’s the process of recognizing revenue as it's earned, not just when it’s billed. Accountants use ASC 606 to ensure compliance—especially important if you’re charging annual upfront fees or bundling services.
What Does a Tech or Software Accountant Do?
Tech accountants do more than bookkeeping—they help you navigate ARR, revenue recognition, development cost management, and startup-specific tax credits. Whether you're pre-seed or prepping for an exit, a good tech accountant helps you stay compliant and scale smart.
