I don't do taxes — but I do love helping founders make sense of their finances and sleep better at night.

Certified in the tools that help you scale
What you get

Clarity, not chaos.

Whether you're pre-revenue, bootstrapped, or post-raise, here's what working together looks like.

Clean, accurate books

Reconciled every month and ready whenever you need them — for a board meeting, a raise, or just your own peace of mind. No year-end surprises.

Cash-flow visibility

Know your burn and your runway. Simple reporting that tells a clear story about where your money's going — without the VC buzzwords.

Systems that scale

QuickBooks, Gusto, Ramp — set up and automated so your finances run themselves. You don't have to open QuickBooks unless you really want to.

Simple, transparent pricing

Pick the level that fits today. Grow into the next.

No hidden fees, no surprise invoices. A one-time setup fee gets your systems clean and current; then it's a flat monthly rate.

About

A CPA who speaks human.

Yes, I'm a CPA. Yes, I know my stuff (really!) — but I'm also a weird, thoughtful, semi-chaotic nerd who understands both early-stage tech and regular messy humans.

I'm Kit Poff, founder of KEP Books — a firm for early-stage founders and tech-forward small business owners trying to build something real without losing their minds (or their socks) in a sea of spreadsheets.

In a decade-plus of accounting, I've supported well over 100 small businesses and startups — from SaaS and fintech to breweries, nonprofits, and food trucks. Sometimes as their main finance person, sometimes jumping in to clean up the chaos.

Let's get your numbers clear.
