Built by an accountant who believes work should only be done once.
Backbone exists to make accounting more efficient.
Improve it for good.
Backbone grew from a simple habit: improve the process first, then automate only what should remain.
Accountants who build.
Ng Xian Hui — Co-founder
CA (Singapore) · ACA · ICAEW Chartered Accountant · BFP · ASEAN CPA
Loved computers long before ledgers.
After 13 years in accounting, including Big Four audit, he co-founded Backbone to turn repetitive accounting work into automated, review-ready workflows.
His approach to artificial intelligence is deliberate: practical, sustainable and never driven by hype.
Catherine Song — Co-founder
CPA Australia
Started in audit before moving into industry and financial planning and analysis, where she saw how easily meaningful accounting work gets buried under repetitive tasks.
She co-founded Backbone to take away the busywork and make accounting the kind of work people want to do again.
Pat — Digital Teammate
Our in-house digital teammate and proof that we use what we build.
Pat supports Backbone’s operations across finance, human resources and other administrative work, helping the team stay organised and keep things moving.
A tool, not magic, and always learning.
