FINANCIAL CLARITY
Built for Real Businesses.
Experience Led. Fact Based. AI Supported.
Today’s financial reporting solutions need an overhaul – to serve businesses, not be built in the image of the accounting industry.
Business owners need facts and support; not endless spreadsheets and buried numbers.
The Problems we solve.
People start businesses, not to be financial experts, but to do what they love, and to support their futures, families and communities.
Unfortunately, accounting packages only provide complexity and compliance; where clarity is actually needed.
- 60% of SMB owners don't understand financial statements.
- 67% cannot name their industry's average profit margin.
- Traditional reporting misses seasonal trends and live financial signals.
- 82% of small businesses fail due to poor cash flow management.
- 64% of businesses "half-heartedly" manage their finances.
CPAs and Bookkeepers need a new answer.
Traditional financial reporting tools were built for compliance, not clarity—and they fall short when clients expect more than spreadsheets.
CPAs and bookkeepers are under pressure to deliver deeper insights, faster turnaround, and client-ready visuals without adding hours to their workflow.
- 56% of accounting professionals spend too much time on manual tasks
- 30% of small business clients change bookkeepers annually.
- 23% of businesses change their CPA annually.
- 41% of SMBs say their professional only delivers data, not direction.
- 32% of SMBs say their professional fails to provide useful guidance.
The Baifokal Solution: Smarter P&L Reporting.
Clarity and action, supported by humans, not replaced by machines
Baifokal automatically generates a monthly reporting package: clear executive summaries, visual financial trends, cost breakdowns, vendor/customer drill-downs, and AI-drafted commentary, with human oversight always in place.
We only use AI to do what machines are good at — researching benchmarks, formatting reports, and drafting commentary. But we never send sensitive or company-identifiable information to external AI agents.
All insights are reviewed and finalized by a human — whether that’s the business owner, their advisor, or a CFO. This is Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) design: quick, accurate, and consistent in tone.
You’re the conductor, not the orchestra. You direct the insight. Baifokal handles the heavy lifting.
See. Learn. Do.
