Services

From accounting to automation

Full accounting cycle

Everything from the first document to the annual report.

  • Day-to-day bookkeeping: accurate, on time, and ready for the new e-invoicing rules.
  • Reporting: your tax returns filed on time, and I watch for rule changes.
  • Annual report: a year-end close that meets every requirement.
  • Real-time reports: where the business stands when you need to know, not once a year.

Payroll

Monthly payroll for people employed in Latvia.

  • Calculation: gross to net, social contributions and income tax, with every allowance applied correctly.
  • Deadlines: the employer’s report filed by the 17th, taxes paid by the 23rd.
  • Employees: registered with the tax authority before they start, and deregistered when they leave.
  • Payslips: in Latvian or English. You can also work out net pay from gross yourself.

Fractional CFO

A finance director’s help, without a full-time salary.

  • Planning: I help you set goals and map how to reach them.
  • Cash flow: I forecast it, so you see a squeeze before it arrives.
  • Budgeting: cutting costs, and working out what an investment will return.
  • Numbers: the KPIs that matter, and margins by product and client.

Smart business automation and AI systems

Tools that take the repetitive work off your desk.

  • System integration: your CRM, ERP and accounting start talking to each other.
  • AI: it sorts transactions and reads the data straight off your documents.
  • Tailored tools: built for your resource planning and profit tracking.
  • Forecasting: cash flow and demand models built on your own numbers.

* These prices and service lists are examples. I'll give you an exact quote after we talk.

* The annual report is included at no extra charge if we work together for a full calendar year (12 months). Otherwise a one-off fee of one month's subscription applies.

Working together: how pricing works

To keep things fair on both sides, pricing works on these ground rules:

  1. "Starting from" principle and volume changes. All listed prices are base rates. If your volume (documents, employees, e-commerce transactions) exceeds the plan's base, the monthly fee is reviewed by individual agreement.
  2. Out-of-plan work (hourly rate). Consulting outside "Fractional CFO", cleaning up prior-period accounting, representing you in an SRS audit, or complex AI-system engineering is billed hourly: €65–95/h (by specialist level). CFO-level work is €100/h.
  3. Automation & AI (project basis). The "Pro" plan includes strategic AI and automation guidance. Actually building the systems - API integrations or robotic process automation (RPA) - is scoped as a separate project.
  4. Systems & licence costs. Subscriptions for accounting and automation software (e.g. Jumis, Zalktis, Xero, Make, Zapier) are not included in the service price and are billed separately or paid directly by you.

About me

Māris Nelsons

Māris Nelsons, ACCA

finance professional

LinkedIn

I've spent over 25 years in finance and I'm a qualified ACCA member. I hold a master's degree in economics from the University of Latvia. Over my career I've worked as a finance director in banks, manufacturing companies, international groups and fintech startups.

SMAIDA is my accounting outsourcing practice in Latvia: full-cycle bookkeeping, payroll, tax filings and CFO-level support for small and medium businesses, with AI doing the routine work.

What I’m best at

Financial accounting & management

I build internal controls, prepare financial statements, run budgets and consolidate group accounts.

Automation and new tools

I automate work with Make, Zapier and AI, and I set up ERP systems. In the StartSchool programme I helped build SoloHub.live, a B2B platform that reads incoming invoices with AI.
