tech accounting
Accounting built for tech startups, by people who speak your language.
Most accountants don't understand SaaS revenue models, funding rounds, or burn rates — you end up teaching them your business instead of building it.
Rise Accounting is where 70% of clients are technology companies. We already speak your language — MRR ARR churn runway. No onboarding your accountant on how your business works.
Investor-Ready Financials
Clean books, accurate valuations, and SEIS/EIS advance assurance so you can raise with confidence.
Cash Flow Clarity
Burn rate models, runway forecasts, and management accounts so you always know where you stand.
Time Back to Build
Dedicated accountant handles bookkeeping, payroll, VAT, and year-end so you focus on product and growth.
So we can show you the most relevant information first:

Why generic accountants cost tech companies more
Traditional accountants treat subscription revenue like one-off sales. They can't produce investor-grade reports, and you waste hours translating your business model for them.
SaaS companies recognise revenue differently. Deferred revenue, MRR, and ARR need specialist handling — mistakes here create problems with investors and HMRC alike.
Revenue Recognition
We handle deferred revenue and subscription billing correctly so your books reflect reality.
Growth Metrics
Churn, CLV, and MRR tracked accurately so you and your investors see the true picture.
Funding Cycles
We understand burn rates and runway because we work with funded startups every day.
Tech-specific expertise
We handle the entire transition. Get matched to a dedicated accountant within 24 hours and fully onboarded within a week — including cleaning up any legacy issues.
