CPAs: a market of independent firms, each on its own

Tens of thousands of small and solo accounting practices, each choosing its own software, with no single platform the whole profession rallies behind. A textbook universe to build for.

46,000+
small & solo accounting firms — out of more than 600,000 licensed CPAs in the U.S.
Why it qualifies

Independent firms, fragmented tooling

Fragmented

Tens of thousands of independent firms, not a few national players.

Owner-run

The principal picks the firm's stack — and pays for it.

No dominant brand

No one platform the whole profession already rallies behind.

A real need

Client portals, scheduling, and compliance tools they'll pay for monthly.

The override, illustrated

Your override as the base grows

If we pay you $60 / month for every firm we onboard, here's how a 24-month ramp toward 1,800 subscribing firms could pay. One niche, adopted — not a hundred separate deals.

Assumes a $60 per-subscriber monthly override and a 24-month ramp. Real numbers depend on adoption, the ambassador's standing, and retention. Illustrative — not a guarantee of income.
