Founder finance, without the blind spots

What’s the hardest part of your startup’s finance?

Most founders don’t need more spreadsheets. They need finance ops that runs itself — one that comes to you, not the other way around.

Critical

I don’t know my runway

You’re burning cash and guessing. Your bank balance goes down but nobody tells you when you’ll hit zero. ApeX tracks burn rate live and warns you 90 days out.

My cap table is a spreadsheet

The founder operating system

One workspace. Every founder financial need.

ApeX for UAE Startups is a single connected workspace — not bolted-on apps. One AI brain, one ledger, one source of truth from trade license to Series A.

You’re building, not bookkeeping. ApeX handles the financial ops so you can focus on product, customers, and your next round.

0% Corporate Tax, the right way.

If you’re a Free Zone startup, you could pay 0% Corporate Tax on qualifying income. But the substance test requires real office, real staff, real activity. ApeX checks your QFZP readiness, tracks qualifying vs non-qualifying income, and keeps you on the 0% path.

What if your finance ran itself?

No more month-end panics. No more ‘where did that expense go?’ at 11pm. Your AI CFO reads your books every morning — and only interrupts you when it matters.

The Spreadsheet Trap

Your cap table, runway, and P&L live in 4 different spreadsheets. Nobody knows which is right.

One ledger. One cap table. One runway number. Always current.

The Part-Time Accountant Bottleneck

Your accountant comes once a month. You wait 3 weeks for answers that are already old.

Continuous close. Real-time answers. Your accountant reviews, AI does the rest.

The Investor Panic

Due diligence next week. You spend 5 days rebuilding your financials from scratch.

One click. Investor-ready pack. Done in 12 minutes.

Founders who stopped fighting their books.

They didn’t buy more software. They hired an AI CFO that comes to them.

“ApeX told me I had 4.2 months of runway before I’d even checked my bank. It flagged that my QFZP substance test was at risk because my office lease was expiring. That would have cost me my 0% tax status.”

Pre-seed SaaS Founder

Dubai Internet City, Free Zone

Runway clarity + QFZP saved

“We hit AED 2M in revenue and our spreadsheet accounting broke. ApeX gave us real double-entry books, automated VAT, and my accountant actually thanked me — she finally has real tools.”
