Sequoia’s “Services, the New Software” and the Threat to Accounting Firms (Plus What to Do Next)

Sequoia Capital’s “Services, the New Software” argues the next trillion-dollar companies won’t sell tools—they’ll do the work—targeting outsourced markets like accounting and audit, where U.S. spend is $50–$80B and staffing is collapsing (340,000 accountants gone in five years, 75% of CPAs nearing retirement). The script explains Sequoia’s logic: outsourced tasks are easiest to automate because budgets already exist, outcomes matter more than hours, and clients accept work done externally—making CAS practices prime targets. It reframes the staffing shortage as a catalyst for clients to adopt AI alternatives that only need to be available when good accountants aren’t. The speaker distinguishes automatable “intelligence work” from defensible “judgment work” and invites viewers to a March 20, 3:00 PM ET webinar at theaiaccountant.ai/webinar. 00:00 Sequoia Warning Shot 01:34 Outsourced Work Target 02:15 Why Clients Will Switch 03:00 Staffing Crisis Reframed 04:26 Intelligence vs Judgment 05:38 Restructure Before Zero 06:06 Webinar Invitation Register at theaiaccountant.ai/webinar Read the full Article on LinkedIn:   / sequoia-capital-just-called-your-practice-...
