Sound familiar?

Running a small business is harder than it should be.

You're across everything — and nothing gets your full attention.

These three things steal more time and cause more stress than anything else.

Cash Flow Visibility

You find out there's a cash flow problem when it's already a crisis.

No warning. No forecast. Just a bank balance on Friday morning that stops you in your tracks. By then you're already scrambling.

“

I found out on a Friday morning. The payment didn't go through and I had no idea it was coming.

Compliance Exposure

Fair Work updated something. You find out three months later.

Award rates. Casual conversion. Super deadlines. Your accountant's busy. You're not sure if you're compliant. You probably are. Probably.

“

My accountant mentioned the Fair Work change three months after it happened. Three months.

Strategic Decision-Making

Big decisions made at 10pm based on gut feel and Google.

Should you hire? Raise prices? Take on that project? You deserve a real sounding board — not search results written for someone else's business.

“

I was googling payroll rules at 11pm wondering if I was even doing it right.

That's where Backbone comes in

The advisor that already knows your business.

Not a generic chatbot. Backbone builds a living profile of your business from day one — and gets more valuable every week.

Memory that compounds

Backbone remembers your business, your decisions, your patterns. You never explain yourself twice. Every conversation builds on the last.

Connects to your numbers

Link Xero or MYOB and Backbone starts working on your finances immediately — cash flow, overdue invoices, payroll alerts. All automatic.

Proactive, not reactive

Backbone comes to you. A weekly briefing on your industry. Compliance alerts before the deadline. Flagged risks before they become problems.

Built for Australian business

Tuned to the ATO, Fair Work, NCC, and local market conditions. Not a global average — the specifics that matter to running a business here.

Reads your whole business — through the tools you already use
Xero MYOB QuickBooks Google Drive Stripe Square Shopify

What our customers say

Real businesses. Real results.

Cafe

It flagged a Fair Work change three weeks before it hit. I would have missed it completely. Saved me from a costly mistake and a very awkward conversation with my staff.

It's like having a really sharp business partner who's always available and actually knows my business. I stopped dreading Monday mornings.

I used to spend hours tracking down compliance updates. Now Backbone just tells me — before the deadline, with exactly what I need to do. It's genuinely changed how I run the centre.
