We're a passionate and fun group of people working hard to solve a tough problem for millions of entrepreneurs.

We’ve paired sleek, user-friendly software with a team of bookkeepers to provide monthly bookkeeping at an incredibly accessible price, giving entrepreneurs the time and the confidence to run the businesses they love.

Understanding your finances should be three things: simple, effortless, and affordable. Bench solves bookkeeping for entrepreneurs. But our larger purpose expands beyond that. We’re here to help entrepreneurs understand what they want to do and where they want to go.

Bench is post Series B, capitalized by a team of Silicon Valley and New York investors. In just a few short years, we’ve grown from four co-founders to over 350 Benchmates. It’s been quite the ride so far and we’re looking for the brightest minds who love solving tough problems to join us on this incredible leg of our journey; bringing financial mastery to 1M entrepreneurs.
