Overview
Escalon is an outsourced finance, HR and tax provider for growing companies, which says it has served more than 20,000 organisations since 2006 and manages more than US$1 billion in financial activity[6]. It has been an Inc. 5000 honoree five times[6].
Escalon delivers finance, people operations and tax as an integrated team, so that the CFO, bookkeeper and HR staff share one data set[6]. It has industry practices for SaaS and AI companies from seed to Series C (including ASC 606 revenue recognition, multi-state SaaS nexus and R&D credits), life-sciences companies funded by NIH grants, SBIR awards or venture capital, foreign-owned US subsidiaries, and nonprofits[6]. It says it supports companies from US$1 million to US$50 million in revenue without changing platform[6].
The breadth suits companies that want to outsource the whole back office. Escalon does not publish prices, and its US$1 million revenue floor implies it is aimed at companies beyond the earliest stage.
