Quick Setup (< 1 hour)

You can use Median to handle your company's bookkeeping, reporting, and financial analysis every day. It connects to your bank, Stripe, Ramp, and payroll accounts, categorizes and reconciles every transaction daily using AI, and has a real accountant review the books. You can ask financial questions in plain language and get same-day answers, run what-if scenarios on runway and hiring, track MRR, burn rate, and CAC, and even query your live financials through Claude via an MCP server integration.
