From our customers

CEOs who stopped guessing.

"We were running a 22-person IT firm on Excel. By the time we realised a project was burning cash, it was already too late. CEODesk shows us margin in real time. We caught a ₹4 lakh overrun in week two — that alone paid for two years of subscription."

RK

Rajesh Krishnamurthy

CEO, Stackline Technologies · Bengaluru

"I run a brand and design agency in Pune. Every month my accountant gave me P&L but never by project. CEODesk gave me that on day one. The predictive ROI feature is a game changer — I now negotiate contracts knowing exactly what margin I'm walking into."

PM

Priya Maheshwari

Founder, Inkthread Studio · Pune

"Our construction consultancy has projects that span 18 months. Before CEODesk, reopened projects had zero cost history. Now every phase accumulates and I can see lifetime profitability. Setup took under 30 minutes. The freeze feature keeps my auditors happy too."

FAQ

Questions we get a lot.

CEODesk uses a dynamic daily cost model. Each employee's daily cost = monthly salary ÷ actual working days in that month. This accounts for holidays and absences. Total project cost = sum of (each assigned employee's daily cost × days allocated) + all 6 OpEx expenses. Profit = project revenue − total cost. No guesswork, no rate cards.

Your data is stored in a dedicated Cloudflare D1 database shard assigned exclusively to your company — no shared tables with any other tenant. Cloudflare operates India Points of Presence (PoPs), keeping your data close. Only your CEO and authorised PMs can access your account. PMs never see salary data or profit margins.

After 14 days, your account enters a grace period. You can still view your existing data but cannot add new entries until you upgrade. No data is deleted. Simply pick a plan and pay via Razorpay to resume full access instantly.

No. PMs have a strictly cost-hidden view. They can log working days, absences, and expenses, and assign employees to projects — but they cannot see salary figures, billing rates, or profit margins. Only the CEO account has full financial visibility.

At the end of each month, the CEO freezes the data. Once frozen, no one — not even the CEO — can edit that month's entries. This creates immutable snapshots that ensure your historical profit data is audit-proof and can't be altered retroactively. It's the feature accountants love.

CEODesk uses salary snapshots. When you update a salary, the system records the old salary against the relevant historical period. Profit calculations for past months continue to use the correct salary that was active at the time — so your historical numbers are always accurate.

When assigning employees to a project, CEODesk shows a live ROI forecast. Enter the proposed allocation percentage and duration — the system calculates expected total employee cost based on current salaries, adds typical OpEx, and shows projected margin. You can simulate different team compositions before committing.

Yes, but with a safeguard. If your current employee count or PM count exceeds the lower plan's limits, CEODesk will block the downgrade until you reduce the relevant numbers. This protects your data integrity — you won't accidentally lose access to active employee records.

Payments are processed via Razorpay, which supports UPI, credit/debit cards, net banking, and wallets. GST-compliant invoices are issued automatically. Annual billing is on the roadmap for later this year.

CEODesk is purpose-built for Indian SMEs in service businesses — digital agencies, IT product and consulting firms, architecture and engineering consultancies, marketing agencies, and similar project-based companies with 3–50 employees. If you bill clients per project and want to know whether each one is profitable, CEODesk is for you.
