About Arithimatic

We believe accounting
should be provably correct.

Built by accountants and engineers who got tired of the gap between the sophistication of modern finance and the spreadsheets holding it together.

To make every
financial statement
trustworthy
by default.

The accounting profession is responsible for the financial integrity of the global economy. Yet the tools it relies on — spreadsheets, fragmented ERPs, manual checklists — have barely changed in thirty years.

"A single misclassified lease or overlooked disclosure can wipe millions from a balance sheet. We built Arithimatic so that never has to happen again."

We started with lease accounting because it's one of the most error-prone, standard-heavy, and consequential areas of corporate finance. ASC 842 and IFRS 16 changed the landscape — but the tooling didn't catch up. We fixed that.

Then we went deeper. Every accounting workflow has the same problem: too much manual judgment, too little traceability, and too many ways for errors to compound silently until audit time. Arithimatic replaces that fragility with AI that reasons over your standards, your documents, and your policies — and shows its work.

Our mission isn't to replace accountants. It's to give every accountant the leverage of a team ten times their size, with the confidence that every number is defensible.

The principles behind
every design decision

These aren't just product principles — they're the philosophy that shapes how we hire, build, and serve our customers.

Traceability over trust

Every number Arithimatic produces is traceable to its source — the exact clause, section, or policy that justifies it. We don't ask you to trust our AI. We make it impossible not to verify it.

Standards-first reasoning

Our AI doesn't learn accounting from web data. It reasons from authoritative standards — FASB, IASB, PCAOB — loaded into a live knowledge layer that updates as standards evolve.

Automation without blind faith

We automate the tedious — extraction, calculation, validation, formatting. But every automated step can be inspected, overridden, and re-explained. Humans stay in control of the judgment calls.

Built with — not just for — accountants

Half our product team are CPAs and former Big Four auditors. Every feature ships after it's been validated by practitioners. We don't build software we'd be embarrassed to hand to an audit partner.

Connected, not siloed

Arithimatic is designed to live inside your existing stack. Native connectors to SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, and SharePoint mean your data flows in and out without friction — no rekeying, no exports.

What we believe in
every single day

Our values aren't aspirational — they're operational. They show up in our code, our customer calls, and how we treat each other when things get hard.

01 —
Precision over speed
In accounting, a fast wrong answer is worse than a slow right one. We never cut corners on accuracy.
02 —
Radical transparency
With customers, with each other, and in our AI. Opacity is a bug, not a feature. We show our work.
03 —
Relentless craft
We're not satisfied with good enough. Every product decision is debated, iterated, and refined until it's right.
04 —
Customer obsession
Our roadmap is driven by the controllers, CFOs, and auditors who use Arithimatic every day — not by trends.

We're building something
genuinely hard.
Come help.

We're a small, senior team. Every person here ships code, talks to customers, or does both. We're looking for people who care as much about the problem as the craft.
