Accounting and CFO Advisory for Seattle Businesses
Accounting and fractional CFO services for Seattle technology companies, consultancies, and professional firms.
Financial Leadership for Seattle Businesses
Seattle’s technology companies, consultancies, and professional firms need financial infrastructure that matches how they operate. That means accurate accounting on a consistent monthly rhythm, clear reporting, and someone who can help interpret the numbers when decisions need to be made. The businesses we work with have moved past the point where a basic bookkeeper is enough but aren’t ready to bring on a full-time CFO.
Kai Crest works with Seattle businesses remotely, using the same cloud platforms and communication tools that run modern companies. Fractional CFO services fit naturally with how technology and professional services operate. Your accounting runs on a reliable schedule, reports are delivered on time, and advisory conversations happen when you need them.
Monthly Accounting
Monthly Accounting
Reconciliations, accrual adjustments, monthly close, and financial statements delivered consistently. Your books reflect your actual financial position rather than lagging months behind while you focus on running the business.
CFO Advisory
CFO Advisory
Ongoing financial guidance for decisions about growth, pricing, financing, and cash flow. Not a one-time consultation but a working relationship with someone who knows your business and can speak to the numbers behind each decision.
Subscription Revenue Accounting
Subscription Revenue Accounting
Deferred revenue recognized properly, recurring metrics grounded in accurate books, and reporting that holds up in front of investors and lenders. The financial discipline that technology companies need as they scale.
Cleanup and Catch-Up
Cleanup and Catch-Up
If your books have drifted, we bring them current before starting monthly service. Most growing companies hit a point where the financials need rebuilding. We handle that work and then maintain the structure going forward.
Seattle Industries We Serve
Seattle’s economy runs on technology, from early-stage SaaS businesses in South Lake Union to established enterprise software companies across the region, alongside the consultancies, engineering firms, and professional services that support them. These businesses need financial clarity that basic transaction tracking doesn’t provide.
We work with businesses that have moved past the startup phase and need structured financial operations. Owners and leadership teams who want to understand their numbers, not just have someone record transactions. If your business is growing and you need a financial partner who can keep pace, schedule a consultation and let’s talk.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does working with a Hawaii-based company work for Seattle businesses?

What types of Seattle businesses do you work with?
Technology companies, SaaS businesses, consultancies, engineering firms, and established professional services. We work with businesses that have outgrown basic bookkeeping and need structured accounting paired with financial guidance.
Do you handle SaaS-specific accounting like deferred revenue?
Yes. Recurring revenue recognition, deferred revenue, subscription metrics, and investor-ready reporting are core to what we do for technology companies. Your books will reflect how subscription businesses actually work.

We provide accounting operations plus CFO-level guidance. Beyond keeping your books accurate, we help you understand what the numbers mean and use that understanding for decisions about pricing, growth, and financing.
