}}Bench Accounting, (branded as "Bench") is a fintech company that automates accounting tasks to organize the financials of small businesses, independent contractors, and entrepreneurs.[1] Bench was founded in 2012 by Ian Crosby,[2] along with Jordan Menashy, Adam Saint, and Pavel Rodionov. Unlike traditional accounting solutions, the company provides subscription access to cloud-based software in combination with in-house bookkeepers.[3] Bench has raised $33M in funding to date,[4] services thousands of business owners across the United States, and currently employs 250 people out of its North American headquarters.[5]

History

In November 2010, Ian Crosby and Jordan Menashy co-founded 10Sheet Services, Inc.,[6] in an effort to solve the problem of bookkeeping on a large scale for small business owners. Adam Saint and Pavel Rodionov joined Crosby and Menashy as co-founders in 2012. With the team and prototype in place they were accepted into startup accelerator Techstars NYC.[7] By July 2013 they had raised $2 million in seed capital, launched to the general public, and settled on the official name, Bench.[8]

Funding

Bench launched their product to the general public in 2013[9] after raising a $2 million seed round,[10] followed by $7 million in Series A funding [11] led by Altos Ventures, with Contour Venture Partners participating. In January 2014, Bench Accounting raised $1 Million from VCs and Angels.[12] In 2016, they raised $16 million in Series B funding,[13] led by Bain Capital Investments, with Altos Ventures, and Contour Venture Partners participating.

Product

Bench provides US and Canadian-based small businesses, independent contractors, and entrepreneurs with bookkeeping services. Bench is integrated with third-party providers for Payroll as well as Invoicing.[14].
