A driver-based model that ties hiring, pipeline and pricing to cash — and the monthly reporting that keeps it honest. Numbers your board reads the same way every quarter.
Most startup models are built once, for a fundraise, and never touched again. Six months later nobody trusts it, and the board pack is rebuilt by hand every quarter.
The model is rebuilt against actuals every month, which is the difference between a planning tool and a fundraising artefact.
Headcount, pipeline, pricing and churn as explicit drivers — so a change in assumption flows through to cash instead of being re-typed.
Every month, plan against reality, with a written explanation of the variances that actually matter.
A twelve-month rolling view of revenue, burn, runway and cash, updated with each close rather than once a year.
Base, upside and downside modelled properly, so a hiring plan or a delayed round is a decision rather than a hope.
Monthly or quarterly investor updates with consistent KPI definitions, so a trend is a trend and not a change in methodology.
The financial section of your board deck, prepared and reconciled to the books, with the questions anticipated.
We build the model from your own history and your plan, with assumptions you can defend in a room full of investors.
Each month the actuals go in and the variances come out, with an explanation rather than a spreadsheet dump.
Plans change. We re-run the model before you commit to the change, not after you have discovered what it cost.
Ledgra runs from bookkeeping to CFO. This service is one rung of that ladder — you can add the others later without changing provider.
Transaction processing, invoicing and VAT.
Annual accounts, corporate income tax and filings.
Monthly close, management reporting, KPIs and dashboards.
Budgets, forecasts, cash flow and scenarios.
Controller/CFO support and strategic advice.
Ledgra works with fixed monthly packages rather than loose services, so you know upfront what you get and what it costs.
Usually yes. We review what you have, keep the logic that works and rebuild what does not survive contact with actuals. Starting from your model is normally faster than starting over.
We agree the definitions with you once, document them, and then report the same way every month. Most reporting problems are definition drift rather than arithmetic.
In the CFO package, yes. In Scale we prepare the financial section and brief you, and we join when there is a specific reason to.
Yes: data room preparation, the model behind the raise, and financial due diligence support. For the negotiation itself you want your lawyer and your lead investor, not your accountant.
Practically, yes. FP&A on top of books that close late or inconsistently produces confident numbers that happen to be wrong. That is why accounting is in every package.
Senior finance in your leadership team without a full-time hire. Someone who knows your numbers, sits in the board meeting, and can defend the model in a due diligence call.
