Kalyani Ramadurgam made the Forbes 30 Under 30 solving a problem most people would rather not think about: compliance.

When she worked for Apple, her job was to block anyone on a terrorism watch list from using Apple Pay. And she was surprised to find that even at a trillion-dollar company, the process for complying with financial laws and regulations was still painfully slow.

So, she co-founded Kobalt Labs, and set out to fix it.

Three and a half years later, her AI-powered compliance firm has an $11M Series A in their pocket, and is already serving dozens of financial institutions.

Just. Wow.

To every woman building something of her own, we’re cheering for you.

And to the women who make up 65% of our team here at indinero, thank you for bringing the same problem-solving drive as Kalyani to the startups, small businesses, and nonprofits we serve every day.

Most year-end close problems aren’t created in January, but they do get discovered then.

A missing W-9. A receivable that’s been sitting at 180+ days since spring. An accrual nobody planned for. Each is easy to fix in October, but painful when there’s a deadline two weeks out.

📣 In our upcoming webinar on October 28, 1 pm EST, our Sr. Director of Accounting (Casey Steele) walks us through the year-end tasks worth tackling now, before the December rush:

👉 1099 readiness: auditing your vendor list, confirming W-9s are on file, and chasing missing details while vendors are still responsive

👉AR/AP cleanup: reviewing aged receivables and payables to decide what should be written off so your balance sheet reflects reality

👉 Year-end adjustments: mapping out common adjusting entries in advance so reporting doesn’t stall at close

If you’d rather spend January on next year than on last year’s loose ends, this one’s for you.

It’s Cybersecurity Awareness Month: this is your friendly reminder that it’s easier to fool a person than hack a system. Convincing (but fishy) emails, reused passwords, or “quick favors” from someone pretending to be the CEO?

Be skeptical.

Pause before you click.

Double-check the domain the email came from.

And make multifactor authentication mandatory in your organization.

We certainly do. Those practices are part of the SOC 2-compliant cybersecurity procedures protecting our clients’ sensitive data every day. Security only works when everyone does their part, and we take ours seriously.

A donor leaves your nonprofit the gift of a lifetime. Incredible! But now you have a new challenge: reporting it to the IRS without losing your nonprofit status.

It’s a good problem to have, no doubt.

But when too much of your funding comes from too few sources, the tax code presumes you’re a private foundation (impacting your tax status, and how much your donors can deduct).

Reclassifications are rare in our experience, but it’s still important to make sure your Form 990 is buttoned up the right way.

Read our latest article, adapted from our Understanding Form 990 webinar, covering:

- Which IRS test applies to your organization
- How the cap and insider rules work, with worked examples
- What filing late actually costs
- And four habits that protect your nonprofit status long before a problem shows up

Read it here:

How does the IRS decide if you’re a public charity or private foundation? Learn how Schedule A works, which tests apply to you, and how to protect your status before it’s at risk.

Every accounting firm in the country gets slammed during tax season. And if your books aren’t closed when that rush starts? You might find yourself at the back of a very long line.

We work hard to communicate promptly, even during busy season.

(It’s why we guarantee 24-hour response times with all of our clients)

But what’s the upside in waiting?

Join us on October 28th for a practical refresher on what to look for during an end-of-year close. 👇

Button things up, file early, and get ahead of the rush.

In a lot of cases, our biggest competitor isn’t a nationally known firm, or even the Big 4. It’s your local CPA.

Hiring close to home genuinely makes sense in a lot of cases.

You share a community. They’ll often come recommended by a friend, so you trust them. And there’s something comforting in knowing you can stop by their office from time to time.

But as you grow, something tends to happen with this relationship.

You send an email about a filing deadline. Silence.

You follow up a week later. Still nothing.

They’re not neglecting you. They just don’t have the capacity, and once they hit their ceiling (especially during tax season), a small firm going dark isn’t a character flaw on their part.

It’s just math 🤷🏻‍♂️

Capacity is only half of the story, too.

Small firms are generalists by necessity. Great during tax season or for simple bookkeeping. But when your needs stop fitting that mold, and you start needing help with niche challenges, the cracks show.

Then, to fill that gap, you add a new provider.

They came recommended too, and they’re really good at solving the problem your first CPA couldn’t handle. But then you’re suddenly playing middleman between multiple parties who all need the same information instead of focusing on what matters most: growth.

Choosing a national provider isn’t about going bigger for its own sake. Rather, it’s about hiring a partner with a deep bench of expertise, the capacity to keep up during busy seasons, and that can scale with your needs.

We’ll handle the numbers so you can focus on growth.

Thank you to all of our Clutch reviewers.

We’re never done getting better, but your feedback sincerely means a lot to us.

Many of you share that you appreciate our communication, how easy we make financial management for you, and how you feel we’re actually on your team rather than just a transactional service provider.

Scaling all the way from 5 to 50 employees usually comes with an assumption: eventually, you’re going to need to build a finance team.

That’s not necessarily true, though.

Our client, Mio, grew from zero to 250+ without a single in-house hire. http://W.Bradford went from reactive finances and overdue accounts receivable to consistent margins and predictable cash flow, all without adding headcount.

And you can too.

With indinero, every client gets:

✅ A single point of contact. No project managing multiple vendors who all need the same information.

✅ A full bench backing that point of contact. No matter what kind of expertise your business needs, our staff of 125+ accountants, bookkeepers, CFOs, and niche experts can surely solve the challenges you’re facing.

✅ Proactive support. We focus a lot on education with clients. We deliver actionable insights that support your leadership team’s decision-making, not just an email with attached reports at the end of the month.

You could scale your finance function with internal hires. But there might be a better solution. One that can handle every aspect of finance, from bookkeeping and tax to payroll, cash forecasting, business intelligence, and more. And all for less than the cost of a single employee.

We’ll handle the numbers. You focus on growth
