Earlier this year, Aprio made headlines with a bold five-year $300 million commitment to AI. They launched their internal AI Council and announced the acquisition of TimeCredit AI to further accelerate automation across accounting workflows.
That’s not just forward-thinking. It’s a firm-wide bet on the future. One that we at Tabs have been closely watching.
At Tabs, we believe automation should start with the most time-consuming and error-prone areas of revenue, including billing, revenue recognition, and tax compliance. These are pain points Aprio’s clients face every day and the exact areas where Tabs platform excels.
Which is why Tabs and Aprio have joined forces to help early-stage and high-growth companies adopt modern revenue workflows that scale. Clients will now get the benefit of both worlds: Tabs automates all of billing and revenue, and Aprio brings deep domain experience to guide companies through strategy, growth milestones, financial audits, tax planning, and more.
Enabling AI-Powered Innovation
Aprio’s AI Council has already committed investments to 10 software companies, doubling down on tools that remove manual bottlenecks and free teams to focus on high-impact, client-facing work.
“The AI Council is a cross-functional leadership group responsible for aligning technology investments with business strategy and client needs. As we deepen our capabilities and expand our AI ecosystem, the firm remains focused on staying ahead of market demands.”
Aprio has built its brand on solving problems, not just flagging them. By partnering with Tabs, they’re adding a modern, AI-native billing and revenue platform to their ecosystem designed to reduce manual workflows and reduce the reconciliation chaos caused by complex contracts and billing across usage, subscription, fees, and more.
Solving Revenue Headaches at the Source
Aprio sees firsthand how fragmented revenue processes can derail even the fastest growing companies. Inconsistent billing processes and disconnected collections workflows, to tax and ASC 606 compliance living in disparate spreadsheets, many startups are juggling five different truths of “revenue.”
Tabs unifies those truths across billing, collections, and rev rec into one automated platform. That means less Excel gymnastics and last-minute journal entry cleanups for month-end close. Instead, Aprio’s clients benefit from clean, structured, and audit-ready revenue data 24/7, without waiting until the next fundraising round to fix their systems.
A New Era of Client Collaboration
This strategic alliance is about investing our joint energy into building the future of revenue automation together.
“With Tabs, we can have input on the product roadmap. Historically, software companies just push their product out and tell us what it's going to do, whereas Tabs is more of a real partnership. They’ll ask how they can help solve this pain point, what are our clients asking for—there’s a two-way dynamic that's at play.”
Aprio’s insights will directly inform the Tabs roadmap, ensuring we continue to evolve based on real client needs and use cases.
The value is also practical. “I'm excited that any of my clients using Tabs will have access to reliable data,” Allie added. When clean data and automation meet trusted advisory, founders can scale faster and finance teams can focus on company-growing strategy.
Building the Revenue Future, Together
Aprio has ambitious growth goals, most of which will come from doing what they’ve always done best: helping clients navigate complex financial landscapes with tailored solutions. With Tabs in their toolkit, they now have a revenue automation platform that matches that ambition.
