Two ways to work with us

Built for firms that need capacity, and businesses that need clean books.

For CPA & accounting firms

White-label outsourcing that scales your team through busy season without new hires. We work under your brand, in your systems, to your review checklists.

  • Bookkeeping & write-up for your client base
  • Workpaper and tax return preparation for your review
  • Year-end and compliance prep
  • Your clients never know we exist

For small & mid-sized businesses

A full finance back office for startups, e-commerce, agencies, professional services and property businesses — without the cost of an in-house team.

  • Monthly bookkeeping & reconciliations
  • Payables, receivables and payroll support
  • Management reports you can actually read
  • Clean, accountant-ready books at year end

India expertise

Why Meridian

An extension of your team, not an outsourcing vendor.
