— SaaSenomics — Ben Murray (The SaaS CFO) × MontPac
Books, metrics and FP&A finally aligned.
A finance back office built for SaaS companies doing $3M and scaling ARR: precision GAAP accounting, industry-standard metrics, and FP&A that aree with each other and delight your board.
— built for a specific stage
You're past scrappy. You're not yet public. Your accounting should reflect that.
Somewhere between $5M and $20M ARR, the spreadsheet-and-bookkeeper setup that got you here stops working. Boards ask for metrics your team can't produce. Diligence requests surface numbers that don't tie out. SaaSenomics is the finance stack built specifically for that gap — not for pre-seed startups, not for post-IPO enterprises.
— THE PROBLEM
Bad information leads to bad decisions.
01
Non-GAAP accounting
Finance teams often lack the technical depth to properly apply SaaS revenue recognition and other SaaS-specific practices required under ASC 606.
02
Inaccurate SaaS metrics
Good metrics come from industry-standard formulas, applied to correct accounting output and presented transparently. Most companies have one of the three.
03
Non-standard formulas
Metric calculations range from incorrect to S-1 ready, which makes benchmarking, comparisons, and investor conversations unreliable.
04
Disconnected FP&A
Forecasting models operate in isolation from both SaaS metrics and actual GAAP accounting, producing plans that don't reflect how the business really works.
05
Bad decisions at the top
Boards and management teams steer the company on flawed financial data — and the mistakes compound over time.
06
Diligence risk
Funding rounds and acquisitions stall when scrutiny of data-room requests reveals inconsistent metrics and non-standard accounting.
— THE SOLUTION
SaaS finance done right, from the ledger to the board deck.
Built from years of SaaS experience and exits, best practices in accounting, metrics, FP&A and board reporting.

— WHY IT MATTERS AT $5M-$20M ARR
This is exactly when the gaps get expensive.
You're fundraising more seriously, hiring a real board, and starting to hear "S-1 ready" in diligence calls. A part-time bookkeeper and a metrics tab in Google Sheets can't keep up — and by the time it shows up in a term sheet, it's already cost you leverage.
Board reporting your investors trust, not question
Metrics that benchmark cleanly against your peer set
A financial plan that reflects how the business actually grows
No restatements or last-minute accounting surprises
A data room that holds up to acquirer and investor scrutiny
A data room that holds up to acquirer and investor scrutiny
Ready for accounting and strategy that actually work together?
Partner with SaaSenomics to turn your books into board-ready insight — without adding headcount or stitching together vendors yourself.
