About Cadence

Built for firms
that move.

Cadence is an India-based accounting delivery partner founded by Jayesh Gavankar and Deepa Patel.

We built Cadence to help firms and finance teams scope recurring accounting work, hand it over clearly and keep review with the people accountable for it.

The idea

Good accounting work has a rhythm. It shouldn't matter which time zone keeps it.

We scope your software, chart of accounts, review standard and deadlines before work starts. The written delivery calendar then sets the handover dates and response times for the engagement.

It's not complicated. It's just rare.

What we hold to

Four commitments

/ 01

Your standards, not ours

We work in the systems and to the review checklist agreed in the scope. Review points and corrections follow the agreed handover process.

/ 02

Named, not pooled

Agree the named team, delivery lead and continuity plan in the written scope. Your reviewer should know who is preparing each batch and who handles open points.

/ 03

Never your clients

If you're a firm, your clients are yours. We do not contact, quote or recruit them, and we work under your name. Agree those terms in writing before work begins.

/ 04

Terms in writing

Agree the fee, scope, trial terms and change process in writing before work begins.

Where we work from

A delivery team in India. Your systems, your review, your sign-off.

Cadence is based in India. Before a trial starts, agree the working hours, software access, confidentiality terms and review steps in the written scope. Your firm or accountant keeps final review and sign-off.

Ask for current information about the team, work location, technical controls and insurance during scoping. Those details should be verified in writing before you share client records.
