Northbeam closed the books in twenty minutes

A twelve-person studio replaced receipts and spreadsheets with one workspace.

Northbeam closed the books in twenty minutes

20 min

month-end close, was 2 days

Priya Shah

COO, Northbeam

The challenge

Northbeam’s designers paid for tools on personal cards and filed expenses at the end of the month. Closing the books took Priya most of a weekend.

What changed

Every tool now has its own Kioro virtual card with a limit. Receipts are matched and categorised the moment a payment lands.

The result

Month-end close went from two days to about twenty minutes, and price hikes get caught before they reach the budget.
