How many times have we heard this from founders and CEOs?
They start out with optimism:
“We hired a fractional CFO and an outsourced finance team. The monthly fee seems reasonable. The reports look fine. We’ve got finance covered.”

But sooner or later, the same frustrations come back:

“Every time I ask for a new analysis or report, the bill grows, I now think twice before asking for anything – very frustrating"

“I fly blind between reports — like I don’t know what is happening in my finances”

“It takes time to decipher the monthly Excel sheet and when I ask for an analysis or special report it takes so much time ”

It’s a pattern we’ve seen again and again — even with repeat founders.

And the numbers back it up: hidden costs typically add 30–50% to what startups expect to spend on finance.

Instead of being a driver of clarity and growth, finance becomes another operational headache

Our vision: top quality CFO at a manageable cost

Proximo was built on a simple idea: startups deserve CFO-level guidance at a price they can live with — and full clarity through real-time insights, reports, and analysis.

But it quickly became clear that we did not want to do provide our services like everyone else:

We did not believe in keeping clients in the dark until the monthly Excel sheet arrived

We did not want to let costs pile up every time a client needed an extra report

We realized that we must use technology to accelerate, clarify, and simplify finances.

We than searched the market for tools, but nothing provided the transparency, ease of use and speed our clients and team needed and deserved

So we decided to build our own.
