Pilot, a provider of artificial intelligence-powered bookkeeping and advisory solutions for small-to-midsized businesses and startups announced Tuesday the launch of the Pilot Local Partner Program.
The company, which has offices in San Francisco and Nashville, said the new program provides independent bookkeepers and accounting firms with access to cutting-edge software and automation capabilities, personalized advisory services, and sales enablement tools to scale their organizations and support small businesses within their communities.
“Small businesses make up more than half of the private sector, yet many struggle in their first five years because they lack the financial visibility and support needed to make the decisions that help them thrive,” Jessica McKellar, founder and CEO of Pilot, said in a statement on Dec. 9. “Local accounting and bookkeeping firms are the partners who show up, who understand the stakes, and who help entrepreneurs turn hard work into lasting progress. They’re the quiet champions of small businesses everywhere. With the Pilot Local Partner Program, our goal is to equip these advisors with the tools and services they need so they can lift up the businesses in their own backyards and build lasting relationships with the talented, passionate, and caring business owners who make up the fabric of their communities.”
The Local Partner Program extends Pilot’s AI-powered platform to independent bookkeepers and accountants nationwide, enabling them to deliver automated bookkeeping and personalized advisory services to their clients. In addition to access to its platform and processes, Pilot connects its local partners directly with pre-qualified prospects to grow their business and establish new revenue streams.
Leveraging its existing sales and marketing channels, Pilot manages the lead generation process and matches bookkeepers with customers based on specialties and location. This allows Pilot partners to operate more efficiently, increase productivity, and dedicate more time to servicing their clients strategically, the company said in a media release.
Pilot provides its customers and partners with a scalable platform and high-quality accounting and advisory services. The company’s advanced technology automates most bookkeeping tasks—from onboarding to generating real-time, tax- or loan-ready financials, based on each customer’s unique business model and preferences with minimal human intervention.
Pilot’s AI capabilities, including its 24/7 financial chat advisor, are underpinned by a comprehensive transaction-level dataset, which is verified by its team of U.S.-based accounting experts.
“The unmatched volume and accuracy of Pilot’s proprietary data enable enhanced automation for real-time financial insights and allows independent accountants and bookkeepers to focus on higher-value advisory services,” the company says.
The Local Partner Program is now available to accounting firms across select cities, with plans for nationwide expansion in the coming year.
