We don’t just look backward—we help you manage forward. Our CFOs bring cash flow discipline to your operations, ensuring you know your runway, understand your burn, and don’t raise too late. If you're guessing how much cash you’ll have in 3 months, you're risking survival. We fix that.
Startups don’t operate on quarterly cycles. Neither do we. Our Fractional CFO services adapt to your pace—fast pivots, urgent investor calls, last-minute board meetings. We plug into your team, clean up your numbers, and move quickly to support real-world execution. You won’t get slow reports—you’ll get proactive advice when it counts.
Ledger Labs delivers the strategic value of a CFO—without the cost of hiring one full-time. We handle everything from forecasts to fundraising prep, helping you make smart, timely decisions. Whether you’re pre-revenue or scaling past $10M, you get expert-level guidance tailored to your stage.
We’ve helped dozens of founders prep for investor meetings, craft financial narratives, and close rounds with confidence. This involves pitch deck metrics, dataroom readiness, and sharp modeling and strategic support. VCs take you more seriously when your numbers hold up—and we make sure they do.
Unlike other firms that hand you a report and vanish, Ledger Labs stays involved. We participate in weekly check-ins, help make operational decisions, and work side by side with your leadership. You don’t just get advice—you get a partner embedded in your financial foundation, ready to react when the stakes rise.
We’ve worked with founders across major US hubs—New York, Austin, Miami, SF—and we understand the expectations of American investors. Our financial strategies are tailored to the US market, local funding culture, and the startup lifecycle. You're not getting recycled advice—you’re getting CFO support that fits your business and your region.
One of the most common issues we fix is unrealistic financial models built more for impressing than informing. We rebuild them based on real metrics, market dynamics, and growth capacity.
We’ve helped clean up chaotic cap tables, untangle equity issues from past rounds, and bring structure to businesses scaling too fast for their own back-office. Many startups come to us after botched fundraising attempts due to weak financials or incomplete data rooms. We guide them through proper reporting, burn tracking, and strategic capital planning.
We’ve also solved cash management crises, built investor-ready board decks, and helped founders understand exactly when and how to raise their next round. Whether it’s controlling costs, planning headcount, or surviving a slow quarter, we step in with clarity and a plan. No guesswork—just real financial leadership when it matters most.
Outsourcing your CFO function to Ledger Labs gives you strategic financial leadership without the cost or delay of hiring full-time. You get expert guidance on cash flow, forecasting, fundraising, and investor communication—tailored for high-growth startups.
We plug in fast, stay involved, and bring clarity to every financial decision. No more guesswork, no more financial blind spots. Just sharp insight, reliable models, and numbers you can defend in any room.
We offer high-impact CFO services without the overhead. From investor calls to board prep, our team is fully embedded in your startup’s financial heartbeat. You get the guidance you need—exactly when you need it.
We help you prepare for funding with clean metrics, polished reports, and full datarooms. You walk into investor meetings with confidence—and numbers that speak for themselves.
Our models aren’t built to impress—they’re built to work. We create detailed financial forecasts based on your traction, market, and cost structure. No fluff. You get projections that support your strategy, hold up to investor scrutiny, and actually help you make decisions.
As a founder, you’re expected to do everything—build the product, lead the team, raise capital, and keep the company alive. But when it comes to financial oversight, doing it all can lead to serious blind spots. That’s where outsourcing your startup CFO requirements makes sense. It’s not about handing off control—it’s about bringing in strategic financial leadership at the right time, without taking on full-time overhead.
Startups move fast, and your financial strategy has to keep up. Budgeting, cash flow management, fundraising prep, forecasting, and investor reporting aren’t side tasks—they’re critical to your survival.
Most early-stage businesses can’t afford a full-time CFO, but they can’t afford to go without one either. That’s the gap Ledger Labs fills. We offer experienced, hands-on CFO support that fits your stage, your speed, and your budget.
Outsourcing gives you access to financial clarity without slowing down your operations. You get real-time runway tracking, accurate burn analysis, and forecasts that actually reflect your business model. We help you see when to raise, how much to raise, and what it will mean for your equity and future roadmap. No more guesswork, no more spreadsheets built on hope.
You also gain an objective voice. In-house teams sometimes lack the outside perspective needed to challenge assumptions or reframe your strategy. We step in with hard questions, practical solutions, and investor-grade reporting that gives you leverage in boardrooms and pitch meetings alike. Whether you’re raising a seed round, planning for Series A, or getting ready for a down quarter—we help you navigate the numbers with confidence.
Outsourcing your CFO needs is the smart move when your financial complexity grows faster than your internal capabilities. With Ledger Labs, you don’t just get help with the numbers—you get a financial co-pilot for your startup journey.

Patrik Nichols CFOWe have a unique business, and almost all the accounting firms we have engaged so far have been unable to get a hold of our business. But Ledger Labs really took the bull by its horn. They understood our business better than us & created a very customized process & systems to streamline our accounting department. We now have detailed step-by-step process documentation, checklists & schedule of reports.
Amanda Fludd CEOLedger Labs found $18K in missed deductions that our old accountant completely missed—same books, same receipts, totally different results. That’s when I knew we were finally working with pros. Since then, they’ve helped us restructure expenses and make tax planning part of the daily flow, not just something we scramble on last minute.
Michael Smith CFOGary—yes, the founder—took the time to really understand our business and where we were struggling. Within a few weeks, our books were clean, our cash flow was clear, and we were spending way less time managing it all. You can tell he genuinely cares, and that energy runs through the whole team

My main problem always has been to know my accurate profits & this is precisely what Ledger Labs helped me with. They went through my entire supply chain costs, my monthly operational expenses, and COGS and got me the correct costing of my goods and the cost of running the business. Now I know how much I need to sell & at what price I should sell it to be profitable.
