FAQ
Before we talk.
A few practical details, so you know what to expect.
What types of businesses does Laya work with?
Laya works with modern businesses across many industries — startups, marketing and software agencies, restaurants, retail and e-commerce, healthcare practices, real estate, construction, and professional services firms. If you run your books in the cloud and want accounting, tax, and advisory under one roof, we can likely help.
What's included in each tier?
Base ($500/mo) is accounting only — a monthly close by the 10th business day and decision-ready reporting. Summit ($1,000/mo) adds annual federal and state tax filing with quarterly payment guidance. Peak ($1,500/mo) adds strategic advisory — financial forecasting, hiring and marketing strategy, and 60 minutes of partner video time each month. Vista ($1,000/mo) is advisory only, for businesses that already have an accounting team.
Is there a setup fee?
No setup fee for standard onboarding. If your books need historical cleanup (common if you're switching from DIY or a messy bookkeeper), that's quoted separately based on scope — typically $3,000-8,000 one-time.
What if my books are a mess right now?
That's exactly why we exist. We clean up historical books as part of onboarding — most clients are caught up within 4-6 weeks. We'll give you a clear quote after reviewing your current state.
How fast can we get started?
Most teams are fully onboarded within 5 business days. You'll have access to your first close package by the 10th business day of the following month.
What software do I need?
QuickBooks Online is required. We integrate with Gusto, Rippling, Stripe, Mercury, Brex, Ramp, Bill.com, and most modern tools. If you use something else, ask — we likely support it.
What if I have more than one entity?
We work with multi-entity businesses. Each entity is scoped as a separate engagement. Multi-entity consolidation and intercompany transactions are available as an add-on — pricing is discussed during your intro call.
How much of my time is required?
Very little. After onboarding (one 30-min kickoff call), most founders spend less than 30 minutes per month reviewing their close package. That's the point.
Does Laya do taxes?
Yes. Tax preparation and filing are included on our Summit and Peak tiers and are delivered by Laya, SPA Associates LLC, or another authorized provider as scoped in the engagement letter. CPA-required services are performed by SPA Associates LLC or another properly licensed provider. We only file taxes for clients we also handle accounting for.
