Frequently Asked

Before we speak.

How confidential is your work?

Absolutely. Most engagements are never disclosed. Sensitive matters stay within a small, trusted circle under NDA.

Who do you typically work with?

Founders from seed through Series C, single- and multi-family offices, and operators of hospitality and real estate assets.

Do you replace our accountant or auditor?

No. We are strategic finance — modeling, advisory, and CFO leadership. We work alongside your accountants, auditors, and counsel.

How fast can you turn around a model?

A focused model typically lands within 48–72 hours; complex transaction models take longer. We agree the timeline upfront.
