The first part of Kruze’s solution comprises of online calculators that quickly estimate common tax questions. The company’s tax return cost estimator allows a CFO to reduce the involved time and cost as if they are shopping for tax filing work. Additionally, through their R&D tax credit calculator, executives can oversee if conducting an R&D tax credit study is worth it for their early-stage company.
Since Kruze serves venture-funded startups, often the CPAs and Controllers at Kruze fill the role of the startup client's CFO at a fraction of the cost. “Kruze is the leading expert in instituting scalable, highly-automated accounting systems and practices, so we’re often the perfect fit for early-stage, funded startups,” mentions Vanessa. At its core, Kruze delivers automated tax software, like TurboTax for startups, which makes it easy for CEO or CFO to fill their tax returns easily. “From a startup’s perspective, getting corporate taxes done has historically been a pain. It takes too much of the startup’s executive’s time, so the Kruze Tax team created software that, from the client’s perspective, only takes a few steps,” mentions Vanessa.
