FAQ

Common Questions

Straight answers about what we do, what we don't, and how working together runs.

About Fractional CFO Work

What does a fractional CFO do?

The work a full-time CFO would do (owning the close, policies, reporting, cash visibility, and lender and audit preparation), delivered part-time and sized to where your business is today.

How is that different from a bookkeeper or a full-time CFO?

A bookkeeper records transactions. A fractional CFO owns the finance function: the policies behind the numbers, the close, cash visibility and the reporting lenders and owners ask for. Compared with a full-time CFO, you get that leadership part-time, sized to your business.

AI Integration

What do you mean by AI integration?

Practical help applying AI and automation to repetitive finance and back-office work, with human review and controls kept in place. We start by finding where it actually saves effort, and we don't automate for its own sake.

Do people still review the work?

Yes. Automated steps are set up with review points and an audit trail, and your team keeps sign-off.
