Steady · by The Solva Group

“Can I afford it?”Answered, daily.

An AI CFO for Australian small businesses, tradies first. Bank watched, invoices chased, GST set aside, payroll sorted, and one number that matters: what’s safe to spend.

The idea

Accounting software tells you what happened. A CFO tells you what to do about it. Steady is the second, built for businesses too small to hire one.

In the app

One screen. The whole money picture.

Transactions categorised as they land, wages and GST set aside, slow invoices chased. One screen says: here’s what you can spend.

Everything it does

What Steady does

Built like a CFO, not a ledger.

Safe to spend

The maths done before you’re up: wages, super, GST and known bills, already subtracted.

Invoices that chase themselves

Polite follow-ups until the money lands. It never escalates without asking you first.

And the rest of the job

Payroll & staff portal

Payslips, super and PAYG sorted. Your crew see their payslips on their own phones.

Hours & GPS logbook

Site check-ins and hours flow straight into payroll, not a Friday-night text thread.

Every dollar categorised

AI sorts the bank feed as it lands and learns your suppliers. Correct it once; it remembers.

Budgets that speak up

Set a budget once. Steady flags a job or month running hot before it’s a problem.

Assets & fleet

Utes, trailers and tools in one register: what they’re worth and what they cost you.

Ask your CFO

A chat that answers from your real numbers. “Can I take on an apprentice?” gets maths, not vibes.

On the tools

The whole CFO, in your pocket.

Send an invoice from the ute, approve Friday’s pay run at smoko, check what’s safe to spend anywhere. Same numbers, same brain, no laptop.
