Statutory obligations multiply
Entities filing in several jurisdictions with local compliance requirements. This is two decades of accumulated work in the mature platforms and it is genuinely not something we have built.
By size
At this size the mature platforms earn their implementation cost — breadth, statutory depth, and twenty years of audit precedent are worth the nine months. Our honest position is that most companies above $100M should run one of them and add an agentic layer on top, rather than replace it with us.
The situation
Entities filing in several jurisdictions with local compliance requirements. This is two decades of accumulated work in the mature platforms and it is genuinely not something we have built.
A real audit with a real materiality threshold, documented controls, and a reviewer who expects to recognise the system. Familiarity has value at this size.
You need to be able to hire an administrator and engage a partner. The talent pool for a young platform is a genuine operational risk rather than a debating point.
Acquisitions, a recapitalisation, or an exit. Diligence teams assess a standard instance faster, which is unfair to newer products and real.
Thousands of bills a month and the manual work is a department. This is where the agentic layer produces the clearest return at this size.
Multiple entities, multiple teams, a hard reporting deadline. Orchestration and chasing matter more than any single automated task.
This is the size band where our honest recommendation most often points elsewhere, and it is worth being direct about why rather than hedging.
Three of our weakest scores — breadth, international statutory depth, and ecosystem — are exactly the dimensions that matter most above $100M. A company filing in six countries with a real audit and an acquisition on the horizon should be on NetSuite, Dynamics, or SAP, and we would rather implement that for you than sell you a ledger that will constrain you in year two.
As a layer, and the return is larger here than lower down because the volumes are larger. Thousands of bills a month is a department, and automating the processing produces a bigger absolute return than it does at $30M.
A $150M professional services or software business, single-country, no inventory, no manufacturing, is a genuine case for our ledger. Project margin, revenue recognition, and portals are where we are strongest and where the mature platforms are comparatively generic.
Even then, weight the ecosystem question honestly. Hiring an administrator for our platform is harder than hiring a NetSuite administrator, and at this size that is an operational risk worth pricing rather than dismissing.
Implement, integrate, or rescue whatever you choose. We hold no reseller relationship with any vendor and take no referral fees, so pointing you at NetSuite costs us nothing except a licence sale we were unlikely to win and probably should not.
Questions
Tell us the platform and what is stuck. Above $100M the answer is often a layer on what you have, or a different platform entirely.
