Our take
Managing a business is a difficult task even before taking care of the complexities of the business's finances and taxes, leading to many people seeking advice from bookkeepers. However, this generally still requires a lot of financial data input from the client, often occurs offline, and can be completely unaffordable for small businesses.
Bench provides an online bookkeeping service for small businesses, offering one-on-one expert support from accountants and small business experts, in addition to other financial tools. The company focuses on facilitating seamless tax declaration for users, as well as providing general financial advice, all-in-one financial dashboards, and tools for financial statements & analytic reports.
Whilst bookkeeping services are nothing new, Bench has taken a unique approach by integrating with the likes of Shopify, Stripe, Freshbooks and Sage. This enables them to provide small businesses with a more centralized and tailored financial experience, one which has led to major funding and in 2022, a slate of key leadership hires.
