FAQ

How Is Accounting for AI Businesses Different From Traditional Accounting? 

Accounting for AI businesses is different from traditional accounting because of how revenue is recognized, complex contracts are managed, and usage-based or subscription-based models are tracked. In traditional accounting, revenue is typically recognized upon receipt of payment, whereas for AI businesses, revenue is recognized over time as services or software are delivered.

AI companies often deal with advanced contracts, milestones, and deferred revenue. You’ll also need to account for research and development costs, licensing, and AI-specific operational expenses. This requires specialized systems and expertise to ensure your financial statements are accurate and compliant.

What Key Financial Metrics Should AI Companies Track? 

AI companies should track metrics such as Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR), Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR), Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC), Customer Lifetime Value (CLTV), gross margin, burn rate, and operational efficiency metrics specific to AI model performance or usage.

Tracking these metrics helps you understand growth, revenue trends, and profitability. MRR and ARR show recurring revenue, CAC and CLTV track customer acquisition and retention, and gross margin and burn rate help you measure your financial health over time.

Is QuickBooks Online a Good Fit for AI Startups? 

QuickBooks Online can be a good starting point for AI startups. It offers essential features such as expense tracking, invoicing, and financial reporting, helping you manage day-to-day finances.

However, as your AI business grows and your revenue recognition, contracts, and operational costs become more complex, you may need more advanced tools or custom accounting solutions to keep your reporting accurate and compliant.

What Costs Should Be Included in COGS for an AI Business?  

For your AI business, COGS should include direct costs like software licenses, cloud computing and data storage, AI model training expenses, operational team salaries, onboarding or support costs, and payment processing fees.

It’s important to regularly review and update your COGS to see the true profitability of your AI services. Accurate COGS tracking ensures your financial statements reflect the real cost of delivering your technology.
