“I feel like I’ve got a resident expert from the SaaS world advising us. Graphite’s team always had a great expert response because this was probably the hundredth time they were dealing with any particular scenario.”

Andres Fabris, CEO, Traxo
“Having a partner like Graphite, where you don’t have to think about the back-end accounting and can trust that it’s being done well and correctly, is really important for any early-stage startup.”

Jordan Nathan, CEO, Caraway
“The Graphite team really feels like a part of our own team. They provide strategic insights, unmatched responsiveness, and the level of service we’d expect from an in-house finance team, all while remaining cost-effective.”

Kelsey Powell Senior Director of Operations, Vital.io
