An Entrepreneur contributor argues that small companies often rely solely on the owner's memory to explain past decisions, which creates risk when the owner isn't available.

Ahad Ali, who previously ran a 20-person accounting firm handling thousands of tax returns, has built Tabby, an AI-powered bookkeeping platform that pulls live financial data via Plaid to generate real-time profit-and-loss dashboards for small businesses. The tool aims to eliminate manual bookkeeping entirely rather than just digitize it, offering versions for both business owners and accounting firms. Fourteen months after launch, Tabby has signed up 5,500 small businesses and reached about $100,000 in annual recurring revenue with a seven-person team.
