AI Founder Office Hours: Finance, Tax, Legal & People AI Founder 服务局：账、税、法、人
I've talked with hundreds of AI founders in Singapore. We talk about fundraising, growth and models. Almost nobody brings up bookkeeping, tax or compliance.
But dig a little deeper and these are exactly where many founders get stuck. The round is agreed, but the financial statements aren't ready. The outsourced accountant only sends totals, and nobody knows if the books are right. The team sits in two countries, and nobody is quite sure how tax or hiring should work.
So this time, I'm trying a different format: our first founder services session. No talk about direction or what's hot. Just finance, legal, tax and HR experts in one room, answering the real questions on your plate.
Questions you might have
No revenue yet. Do I still need to file taxes?
Can expenses I paid before incorporation count as company expenses?
How do I record overseas revenue collected through Stripe? When do subscriptions and credits count as revenue?
Half my team is in China. How do we handle tax and hiring?
What about EPs for myself and key hires?
What should I watch out for when a Singapore entity grants options to employees in China?

在新加坡我聊了上百个 AI founder。大家聊融资、聊增长、聊模型，几乎没人主动聊记账、报税和合规。
可聊得深了就会发现，这些事一直卡在很多人身上：融资谈好了，财报做不出来；外包会计只给个总数，账到底对不对没人知道；团队在两个国家，税怎么交、人怎么雇，都说不清楚。
所以这次想换个形式，第一次办一场 founder 服务局。不聊方向，不聊风口，就把财务、法律、税筹、人力的专业人士请到一个房间，回答你手上真实的问题。
你可能也想问
公司还没收入，要不要报税？
注册前自己垫的钱，能不能算公司支出？
Stripe 收的海外收入怎么记？订阅和 credits 什么时候算收入？
团队一半在国内，税怎么交，人怎么雇？
自己和核心员工的 EP 怎么办？
新加坡主体给国内员工发期权，要注意什么？
