Revenue recognition, invoicing, and project economics on one platform
Close the month from the same records delivery uses, instead of reconciling exports from different systems
Real-time forecasting based on what's earned and what's forecasted
Invoices generated from project data, connected to accounting
Trusted by ambitious
high-growth technical teams
Month-end is a reconciliation project that repeats every month
Finance teams at services firms spend the first weeks of every month piecing the numbers back together from projects that are already delivered. Operating builds cost, revenue, and invoices straight from the approved hours, so month-end is mostly checking numbers that are already there.
