Economico for Stripe Atlas companies

A US company needs books you can explain

Incorporating was one step. Recording what the company earns, owes and holds is the next. Your own agent can run that record from wherever you work.

Connect your agent

The company exists before the finance team does

A US entity may have a bank account, first customers and expenses while its founder is still operating from another country. Those facts need a coherent record even before a local bookkeeper is in place. Economico starts an accrual, double-entry ledger for the business and lets your agent record its contracts, invoices, costs and completed payments.

Answer from the books you control

Ask your agent for revenue, receivables, cash, burn and runway from recorded activity. Inspect the source documents and entries before sharing a figure with an investor or accountant. The read-only workspace shows the same ledger; on the Startup plan, a selected report can be shared by revocable link.

Check the first quarter
Show what the US company earned, what customers still owe and the cash we have recorded. Which source documents support those figures?

Keep cross-border facts explicit

Choose the business's currency at creation and record supported stablecoin settlement evidence where relevant. Economico does not move money, infer exchange rates, decide your tax obligations or provide local statutory reporting for every jurisdiction. Review those questions with the advisors responsible for the company.

An Atlas company's first quarter · in journal entries

A US company, run from anywhere.

Scroll through Lantern Data's first quarter — a Delaware C-corp run from abroad, billing plans and per-call usage over stablecoin rails, keeping US-shaped books the whole time.
