The problem with Digits

Puzzle was designed from the ground up to solve the real problems facing forward-thinking businesses and their accounting partners.

"I'm flying blind between funding rounds"

Digits wasn't built for venture-backed companies. Startup-specific metrics like burn rate, runway, and ARR aren't native to the dashboard — forcing you to export data to spreadsheets to get the numbers that determine whether you survive the next six months.

"I'm locked into a black box with an autonomous control gap"

Digits frames AI as the primary worker, automating workflows through proprietary AI agents. This autonomous approach creates a control gap for founders and accountants who prefer AI that assists human decisions instead of making them autonomously.

"My accounting software treats me like every other business"

Digits uses Plaid middleware for bank connections instead of deep integrations with the fintech stack early-stage companies actually run on. When you process thousands of transactions, native connections to Stripe, Mercury, and Ramp determine whether your software understands startup spend patterns.

Puzzle does what Digits doesn't

While Digits delivers autonomous AI for general businesses, Puzzle was built for venture-backed companies and the accounting firms that serve them.

Those who switched and aren’t going back…

"Puzzle generated my financial statements and insights in 14 clicks. It literally took 2 minutes. My mind was blown compared to QuickBooks."

Dr. Lindsay Padilla,

CEO & cofounder of Hello Audio

"Before Puzzle, we mostly tracked burn via bank statements. We knew this wasn't scalable, but the team needed a more user-friendly solution than QuickBooks."

Ashanti Abdullah,

Founder and CEO of Ternwheel

"We switched from Pilot and QuickBooks, going from a total sh*tshow to simplicity."

Arndt Voges, Co-founder

and CEO, Aircooled Ventures

"Puzzle enabled us to launch bookkeeping as a profitable, high-margin service. We went from onboarding to delivering results within days—unheard of in traditional bookkeeping"

Renato Villanueva,

Founder and CEO of Parallel

“Before I started using Puzzle, figuring out my financials was a chore combing QuickBooks, chatting with my bookkeeper, and working in Excel. Now, I am able to look at a single dashboard and get all the info I need.”

Adam Spector,

Founder & CEO at Levy

“We’ve been using Puzzle for quite some time now, and we love it! Funny enough, we didn't even know how painful accounting could be before we spoke to fellow YC companies that run on Quickbooks"

Tobias Müller,

Co-founder at Flike

"To sort through 1,200 Stripe transactions in QuickBooks would have been a nightmare. With Puzzle, it just does it. We can actually integrate, so we've got all that detail in there. It's a huge time savings."

Susan Wozena,

CPA, Director of Bookkeeping at Accountalent

"Puzzle saved time and days by removing the need to ask the client to review categorizations, help us understand what was missing, and then make those corrections in the accounting software."

Sharad Singh,

CEO of Trivium

"People in this industry work crazy hours. You don't need to. The right tools can give you some of your life back."

Maggie Isaac,

CEO & Founder of Wrapped Accounting
