Stop reviewing reconciliations at 11pm on Sunday.
Ignium is the infrastructure layer that eliminates Management Debt — the hidden liability quietly draining $78,000–$117,000 per partner, per year from accounting firms.
We tell you — on Tuesday morning — exactly where your team is burning billable hours. Before month-end close. Before the client finds out.
- Founding cohort now open
- Built by operators
- Priced in the open
Three honest questions.
Answer yes to two, and you're carrying material management debt. The dollar figure is between $78,000 and $117,000 — per partner, per year. Nothing in your P&L will ever flag it.
Take it on a Sunday night, when it's still fresh.
- Q1
Do clients reach out to you directly for things you'd rather a manager handle — and do you answer them anyway?
- Q2
Have you reviewed the same type of error from the same staff member more than three times this year?
- Q3
When a senior leaves, do certain client files become 'partner-only' for weeks until a replacement is up to speed?
Our pricing is published. So is our talent's paystub.
Ask any competitor to do the same. Watch the room go quiet.
Operational truth for your entire team. Local, remote, anywhere. Tiered by talent seats — see breakdown below.
Sourcing, vetting, and onboarding a new hire into your firm.
Ongoing governance, scoring, coaching, and audit trail for Ignium-placed team members.
Compliance and payroll infrastructure. Direct pass-through. We publish the invoice.
We publish the paystub. Zero spread. Ever.
Most offshore staffing firms pay their talent 30–45% of what they charge you. The rest is spread — money extracted in exchange for visibility that doesn't exist and accountability nobody enforces.
Percentage-fee recruiters charge 18–35% of your hire's first-year salary. On a $60,000 accountant, that's $10,800 to $21,000 in fees paid once, for a match. Then they disappear.
We don't take a spread. We don't charge placement percentages. We publish every line item, every invoice, every paystub. Our margin comes from the infrastructure — not from keeping your talent in the dark about what they're worth.
This is what happens when a firm actually competes on infrastructure instead of arbitrage.
Three tiers. Sized by talent seats, not feature gates.
Every tier ships the full Ignium OS. The price band reflects how many people you onboard into the platform.
Beta cohort only — locks for life
Standard entry — 5–15 person firms
Larger firms, multiple advisors
Founding tier is the only price locked for life. Growth becomes the standard entry rate when the beta cohort closes in May. Scale is for firms onboarding more than 8 people into the platform.
What you're paying now vs. what you could be paying.
The industry's dirty secret is that nobody in this category can match this pricing and stay in business. Their entire P&L depends on the spread we just eliminated.
If your current staffing firm can publish their talent's paystub alongside your invoice, they should. Ask them today.
Pull your current staffing invoice. Compare it to the table above. If your provider can't publish the paystub, you have your answer.
We've spent a decade inside the firms we now build for.
Ignium was built by operators who ran remote accounting teams from the inside — and watched the same three failure modes hit every firm we touched: invisible work, mispriced engagements, and a partner's calendar swallowed by cleanup.
We tried every tool, every staffing firm, every percentage-fee recruiter. None of them solved the underlying problem because none of them were measuring the right thing. So we built the infrastructure layer ourselves.
If you want a real conversation — not a sales call — about whether this fits your firm, the founding partner application is the door.
Five spots. Opens April 22nd.
We're selecting five founding partners for Ignium OS. Ninety-day stress test. $500/month locks forever, regardless of where our pricing goes when we open to the market in May at $800.
If you've been watching what we're building and you're ready to actually test it — this is the window. It doesn't come around twice.
- 4-question application — no quote form, no gating
- 20-minute conversation, not a sales pitch
- No credit card, no commitment to apply
- 90-day refund clause if Ignium OS surfaces nothing new
The objections, answered.
If your question isn't here, the founding partner conversation is the place for it. No sales pitch. Real answers.
Accepted founding partners pay $500/month for Ignium OS for the duration of their continuous active subscription — even after standard pricing moves to $800/month in May. Cancel and resubscribe later and you re-enter at the published rate. Deployment ($3,500), Talent Success ($350/mo/placement), and Contractor of Record ($99/mo/placement) are not part of the lock and follow standard pricing.
