Pilot is a tech-enabled finance-back-office service combining AI-assisted bookkeeping with human accountants, plus optional tax and fractional CFO tiers. Bookkeeping starts around $99/mo, with Core at $499/mo and custom plans layering in tax filing, payroll and CFO advisory; it is a popular, well-funded choice for US venture-backed startups that want hands-off, accrual-ready books and investor-grade reporting.
It suits US-incorporated startups and SMBs that prefer outsourcing finance to a managed service rather than running their own accountant or software. The major caveat for this audience is geography: Pilot is built around US GAAP, US tax and US payroll, so it is essentially unusable as a compliance fit for ASEAN-domiciled businesses. Pricing is also steep at the upper tiers, and there is no developer API.
