Seattle, WA
CPA & Outsourced Accounting for Seattle Tech Companies & Startups
Home to Amazon, Microsoft, and a dense bench of Eastside startups. We give founders in Seattle and Bellevue institutional-grade accounting, fractional CFO leadership, and tax strategy, with the boutique attention a venture-backed team actually needs.
The Seattle Market
Built for the way Seattle tech operates

Local Tax Notes
What WA founders need to know
Washington has no state income tax, but the B&O (Business & Occupation) tax applies to gross receipts and frequently surprises new founders.
Seattle imposes its own Payroll Expense Tax (JumpStart) on large employers, and city B&O on top of the state.
Remote employees in WA still require multi-state payroll registration if you have staff outside the state.
