Ledgerline is the audit-ready close platform for finance teams that own SOX, IRS response, and quarterly reviews. We collapse audit prep from weeks to hours by treating every transaction as if the auditor is already at the door. SOC 2 Type II, SAML SSO, regional data residency.
Controllers, audit managers, and CFOs at companies with $5M to $250M in revenue running quarterly reviews, SOX 404 controls, IRS response cycles, and lender-required audited statements. Plus solo CPA practices preparing 5+ client audits a year.
Audit prep is a 2- to 6-week scramble for documentation that should have been organized in real time. The audit team requests a sample, the controller pulls invoices and supporting documents from email and network drives, the staff accountant reconciles, and 40 to 120 hours of professional time disappears into preparing for an audit that will be done in two weeks anyway.
The cost of that scramble (in fully-loaded staff hours) routinely exceeds $25,000 per audit cycle for mid-size companies, and $5,000 to $12,000 for solo CPA engagements. None of that work moves the business forward. It is pure compliance overhead that exists because the books were not audit-ready when the audit started.
Discount only for: paid annual (15%), CPA practice partnerships (negotiated rate based on client count), or design-partner enterprises in a new vertical (50% for 6 months in exchange for case study). Walk away from anyone trying to negotiate below $895.
SOX enforcement is intensifying as the SEC and PCAOB reset expectations post-2024. IRS response timelines tightened in the 2025 RAR cycle. Lender-required audits are happening on more companies because the credit market has tightened. The cost and frequency of audit prep has gone up; staff accountant capacity has not. The math forces the platform.
