San Francisco based accounting startup raised $4.7m in Seed funding led by Accel.
“During my time as an engineer at Affirm, I built multiple financial systems of record — including its in-house accounting system — as the company scaled from 100 to 2,500 employees. I saw firsthand how far behind accounting software lagged,” said Helen Hastings, founder and CEO of Quanta. “The manual work required to produce data has resulted in a once-per-month reporting cadence that holds businesses back. Quanta’s vision is to automate all repetitive aspects of accounting, so finance teams need only focus on creative work: defining the business model, selecting the appropriate policies, and asking the right questions that will push their business forward. Quanta isn’t just an accounting firm; it’s an exponential upgrade to organizations’ financial operations.”
