Carlotta Thompson & Associates

The R&D tax credit is practically handmade for SaaS companies spending money on R&D. As an in-house CFO, I claimed this credit, but I hired experts to do it right so it’s well documented and we’re claiming the right amounts each year. Working with Strike to maximize your R&D tax credit is something your tax and accounting practice should definitely be looking into.
