Reduction in close time (20+ days to 7 days)

Challenge

This fast-growing B2B SaaS startup was working with AirCFO to manage their accounting and finance functions. While AirCFO had a structured and repeatable approach, the process was slow, unresponsive, and missing key financial tasks. Their month-end close was never earlier than the 20th of the month—sometimes even later. The startup needed faster, more reliable financial data to make informed decisions, control cash flow, and report to investors on time.

Solution

When Prism Edge took over in January, we restructured the month-end close process to make it faster, more accurate, and more responsive.

  • Accelerated reconciliations & close timeline—Eliminated bottlenecks and reduced manual delays

  • Standardized processes & eliminated inefficiencies—Ensured financials were complete and accurate

  • Increased accuracy & financial oversight—Fixed missing financial tasks and improved reporting

Impact

Within just two month-end closes, we cut the close time from 20+ days to just 7 days—a 65% improvement.

  • Leadership now has real-time financials—No more guessing or relying on outdated reports

  • Cash flow is monitored in real time—Founders have an accurate picture of runway and expenses

  • Investor & board reporting is faster—Giving stakeholders the confidence they need to support growth
