Audit Prep & Compliance

Audits, IRS notices, FinCen compliance — we represent you directly before tax authorities. Claude generates pre-audit workpapers, organizes documentation, and surfaces potential issues early so your auditors get clean, defensible materials.

Custom Claude Workflows

Every accounting department is different. We design bespoke Claude workflows tailored to your systems and pain points — intercompany reconciliation, subsidiary consolidation, receipt processing, or any proprietary process you need to streamline.

Fractional CFO

CFO-level thinking,
powered by Claude AI.

Most growing businesses aren't ready for a $200K+ full-time CFO — but they absolutely need that level of financial leadership. Celestia delivers fractional CFO services with a twist: Claude AI handles the heavy analytical lifting while your CPA focuses on strategy, compliance, and tax optimization.

We work alongside your team — attending key meetings, advising on major decisions, building financial models with Claude, and holding your finance function accountable.

Cash Flow & Runway Management
Always know where you stand. Claude builds and maintains rolling cash flow forecasts automatically, while your CPA interprets the numbers and advises on strategy.
Investor & Stakeholder Reporting
Board-ready financials, KPI dashboards, and narrative reporting that builds confidence with your investors and lenders — generated by Claude, validated by a CPA.
Tax-Smart Strategic Planning
Annual budgeting, scenario modeling, and growth planning — all informed by deep tax expertise. We help you think three steps ahead, with every decision optimized for tax impact.
Full-Time CFO Cost
$200K+
Annual salary + benefits + equity. Most early-stage companies can't justify it.
Celestia: CPA + Claude AI
Fraction of that.
All the strategy, tax expertise, and insight of a CFO — plus Claude AI automation handling the analytical heavy lifting. On a flexible retained engagement that scales with you.

Common Questions

What you need
to know.

What is Claude?
Claude is an AI assistant made by Anthropic. It's built for reasoning, analysis, and complex work — including accounting. Claude reads documents, extracts data, identifies patterns, and generates outputs. For accounting, it's transformative.
How does Claude help accounting?
Claude automates time-consuming tasks: document processing, reconciliation, analysis, and reporting. It reads unstructured data (receipts, contracts, emails), categorizes it correctly, flags issues, and generates financial insights — all audit-ready.
Is my data secure?
Yes. We use Claude's enterprise-grade API with strict data handling protocols. Your financials never train Claude's models. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We comply with SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR standards where applicable.
Do I need technical staff?
No. We handle all the AI setup and prompt engineering. Your team uses simple interfaces or we integrate directly with your existing systems (QuickBooks, NetSuite, Xero, etc). You don't touch the AI — just see the results.

How long does implementation take?
Depends on scope. Simple projects (single workflow) take 2-4 weeks. Mid-scope (3-4 workflows, system integration) takes 6-8 weeks. Enterprise implementations with multiple integrations take 8-12 weeks. We start seeing ROI within weeks.
What ROI should I expect?
Typical clients see 30-40% time savings in manual accounting tasks within the first month. Cost savings compound with volume. For AP automation: 3-5 day payback period. For month-end close: 2-3 days saved per cycle. For reporting: 5-10 hours per report. Calculate your team's hourly cost and multiply.
