About detof

A boutique accounting practice in Zurich built around startups and crypto-native businesses, including token issuers, DeFi projects and DAOs, as well as ordinary tech startups. The team of four combines a managing partner who acts as temporary CFO, a Swiss-certified tax and VAT specialist, a senior accountant for software and e-commerce companies, and a crypto accountant. Its pitch is to spare founders the need to explain blockchain basics, using a modern cloud software stack and monthly reconciled books. Seed-stage companies are advised to keep their own books until funding arrives, while later-stage clients hand over accounting entirely. Service packages are priced on the website, the site is in English, and the firm also arranges incorporation and a resident director in Swiss German-speaking cantons.

Services

Monthly bookkeeping with Xero and Dext onboarding, accounts payable and receivable reconciliation, payroll, VAT and tax filing, annual financial statements and fundraising due-diligence preparation. Crypto accounting covers reconciliation of digital assets and token or SAFT treatment. Limited, ordinary and crypto-focused audits are offered. Incorporation of Swiss entities is completed in about four weeks, with an optional nominee director acting as a Swiss-resident director. Higher packages add budgeting, forecasting and CFO-level support.
