About Reach

Startups and technology businesses operate in fast-changing environments where financial clarity and planning are critical to growth. At Reach, we support founders and technology professionals as they build, launch, and scale their companies.

From early-stage planning to expansion, we work alongside founders to create financial systems that support innovation, stability, and long-term success.

What types of startup businesses does Reach work with?

Reach works with early-stage and growing startups across Canada, including technology, innovation-driven, and service-based businesses. We support founders from the idea stage through growth and scaling, helping them build strong financial foundations, manage cash flow, and prepare for funding, grants, and tax credits such as SR&ED.

Do you provide fractional financial services for startups?

Yes. Reach offers fractional advisory and financial leadership services for startups that need strategic guidance without the cost of a full-time executive. This includes budgeting, cash runway planning, financial forecasting, investor-ready reporting, and support for government programs and incentives such as SR&ED tax credits.

Do you also support independent IT and technology consultants?

Absolutely. We work with independent IT consultants, developers, engineers, and technology professionals who operate through corporations or as sole proprietors. We provide bookkeeping, accounting, payroll, HST compliance, tax planning, and offer guidance on whether their work may qualify for SR&ED or other innovation incentives.

What accounting services does Reach provide for technology and startup businesses, including SR&ED?

Reach provides end-to-end accounting and tax services for technology and startup businesses, including bookkeeping, financial reporting, payroll, HST compliance, and corporate and personal tax returns. We also coordinate SR&ED claims by working alongside technical consultants, and help prepare financial schedules, CRA support documentation, and compliance filings. Our goal is to ensure startups maximize available incentives while staying compliant and growth-ready.
