At Mayday, we're dreaming big!

Our mission is to bring about real-time accounting for the finance teams of startups and SMEs

Finance teams play a crucial role in their company’s success, with the unique capacity to deliver business insights and management information. Today’s finance teams are hampered by the time-consuming process of manually manipulating data each month end. We are creating a world where accurate accounting can be automated, freeing up time for finance teams to be able to deliver maximum value to their company.

First stop

Minimising the pain of multi-entity

Mayday Balancer is the safety net that ensures intercompany loan accounts will never again fall out of balance.

Mayday Recharger is revolutionising month end for finance teams that need to charge costs and revenues between multiple group entities.

BRAG saves time by allowing transactions to be easily matched to bills or invoices posted to other group entities.

These products are already freeing up space for finance teams to create value for their business in more meaningful ways. We’re only just getting started! To find out where we’re headed, read our public product vision.

Why the name Mayday?

Mayday is the international standard call for help. We’re answering that call for startups and SMEs looking for the advice they need in navigating the maze of month end. More broadly, Mayday originates from the French “m’aidez” — help me.

Too many of us are bogged down by antiquated processes that no longer make sense. As Mayday grows, we will be able to provide valuable help to more and more finance professionals, rescuing them from outdated systems and freeing up their time and attention to make space for bigger things.
