With Puzzle 🧩🚀, you’ll always know if you’re on the right track!
Host of CRAFTED., a 2x Webby-honored tech podcast | Product & Growth Leader | Founder of Modern Product Minds
Imagine you’re on a ship in stormy seas. You ask your navigator, “Are we on course?” Their reply: “well, we were 30 days ago.” Now imagine that ship is your startup—and your navigator is your accounting software. Sound like a disaster waiting to happen? That’s exactly the problem Sasha Orloff set out to solve with Puzzle 🧩🚀. I love this latest episode of CRAFTED., because Sasha demonstrates true first-principles thinking, grit, and an example of how to modernize a "boring" industry. Sasha is on a mission to create “accounting software you actually love” — and to solve the problem that frustrated him at his previous two startups. Puzzle provides founders the *real-time* view they need to steer their ship, because “it's hard to set yourself up for success if you don't know when you're about to run out of money.” Sasha shares: 🤓 Why “accounting gets a bad rap”, but it crucial for founders: it’s your financial health 🤠 Why second-time founders are ideal customers 🧐 Why it took five years to build an MVP – and why he wasn’t daunted by this expectation 🥸 Why the problem was never accounting, but accounting software and the distorted realities it’s built to create 🤩 Why AI and modern API’s made now the right time to build Puzzle 🤣 Why Puzzle is “poking the bear” and putting highway billboards up near QuickBooks HQ 😀 How Sasha learns from CFO’s as he hosts the Turpentine Finance podcast Listen to CRAFTED.: 🎧 Apple: https://lnkd.in/eJ8BNP4v 🎧 Spotify: https://lnkd.in/eyQPfgwx 🎧 etc.. crafted.fm

I recently sat down with Dasha Shunina to share the story behind Puzzle 🧩🚀 and the real problems we’re solving. Scaling my two previous companies to hundreds of employees while raising significant capital, I constantly faced a frustrating challenge—not having the data-driven financial insights needed to make informed decisions. Did you know that one of the top reasons companies go out of business is simply because they run out of cash? Financial health isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s the lifeline of your company’s success. In this latest episode of TALKS WITH DASHA, we dive deep into the ways Puzzle is empowering founders and finance teams to take control of their financial data. 👉 Catch the full episode in the comments below!

Adding AI to legacy systems isn't the answer for modern accounting. The fundamentals need a complete rebuild. We started fresh with a general ledger built by CPAs, CFOs, and finance experts: - Automation for up to 90% of routine tasks - Smart monthly close reviews and reconciliations - Tools to help accountants regain control and maximize efficiency Accountants are the unsung heroes behind every business's success. Their future deserves better tools, and we're excited to be building them alongside companies like Stripe, Brex, Ramp, and Mercury. https://lnkd.in/gQjZ2WtA

We agree. Accountants deserve better. Introducing Puzzle’s next-gen accrual accounting solution, which automates 90% of an accountant’s routine tasks. Learn how👇🏽
CEO of Puzzle and host of the Turpentine Finance podcast. YC, ODF, Village Global alumni.
When I started my first company back in 2012, I realized something big: Accountants are the heartbeat of every business—they’re the ones keeping everything honest behind the scenes. But, I also noticed they’re often stuck with outdated, manual tools, doing work that could and should be automated. This seemed almost designed to hold them back from reaching their full potential. So, 3 companies and many years later, we decided to build Puzzle 🧩🚀— to give accountants the modern accounting tools they deserve. Over the past few months, we’ve been hearing more and more from accountants about what they need to make their work faster and less repetitive, and it’s clear they’re ready for a change. In just under a year since launching to the public, Puzzle has: - Handled over $30B in transactions - Supported 3,000+ businesses, 400+ bookkeepers - Double our new signups last month alone! So, why do accountants deserve better tools? The reality is tough. - With 75% of accountants nearing retirement and 300K+ leaving the field, burnout is at an all-time high - Excel and QuickBooks have barely changed since the ’80s - Some in the industry tell clients to “fire their accountants” Puzzle has a different vision: empowering, not replacing, accounting professionals. Today, I’m thrilled to announce Puzzle’s next-gen accrual accounting solution, which automates 90% of an accountant’s routine tasks. Big shoutout to VentureBeat Michael Nuñez for covering our launch!
