AI accounting startup Basis raised $100M Series B at a $1.15B valuation, with participation by Accel, GV, Lloyd Blankfein, and Khosla Ventures. Its agentic AI platform learns client-specific needs and runs multi-step workflows across tax, audit, and CAS, serving about 7 of the top 25 U.S. accounting firms. This signals professional services entering the era of autonomous, end-to-end finance operations and targets the industry’s persistent talent shortage. Firms adopting early can increase output per employee and strengthen competitiveness at scale.
