Founding Accountant

QUANTA FINANCIAL

QUANTA FINANCIAL

Accounting & Finance
Posted on Oct 21, 2024
At Quanta, we're re-thinking the accounting and finance system of record in order to drastically improve how businesses understand their finances.
We are solving a top cited pain point from finance teams, which is that the process of getting the answers they need about their finances is tediously slow. We do so by automating all of the accounting for our users, which not only eliminates painful manual work, but also lets us build up a well-architected financial system of record that provides users clarity in previously opaque areas. We are the full financial source of truth for our users today, and can do in seconds what takes our competitors weeks.
Despite only finishing our initial design partner phase at the beginning of this year, we have 20+ businesses as paying customers, all who signed annual contracts, and we’ve been doubling revenue every few months.
We’re well funded – we raised a $4.7m seed round from Accel and other top VCs – with years of runway.

About us

We are a tight-knit team of 6, working in-person in downtown San Francisco.
Our team has spent our careers at the intersection of finance and technology. Between all of us, we’ve built accounting systems at Affirm, ledgers at Stripe, built previous companies from the ground up, built finance teams from one to dozens, and passed the CPA exams. 5 out of 6 of us have run a marathon (and we recently cheered on the 6th as he finished a half marathon).
