Outsourced Accounting & HR Services for Austin Startups

Austin may be famous for its brisket, Barton Springs, and late-night sets on Sixth Street, but its real superpower is the nonstop flow of venture capital dollars and engineering talent that fuels Silicon Hills. While you chase product-market fit or the next big moment at SXSW, Countsy keeps your numbers tight and your people supported with a complete Finance & People Ops department purpose-built for high-growth companies.

Why Austin Startups Choose Countsy

  • Startup-native DNA. We already speak ARR, CAC, and PLG, so no time is wasted translating your SaaS metrics.

  • VC-ready reporting. Silverton Partners, LiveOak, and Capital Factory expect GAAP. We close the books fast and prep the decks that win Series A-C rounds.

  • Texas compliance made easy. From Franchise Tax filings to multi-state payroll (no state income tax, but watch that SUTA), we keep you audit-ready.

  • Elastic resourcing. Ramp from a fractional controller to a full FP&A pod as you scale from seed to IPO.
