How was AccountOne created?
All businesses start with an idea. At AccountOne, it was to free tax consultants and online retailers and their employees from tedious tasks.
This is us:
Gordian Brockstedt

Wolfgang Schmütz
History of origin
Early professional experience & idea for creation
After training as an assistant tax consultant and holding several positions in tax consultancy, Gordian realized that Excel was no longer enough - a smart digital solution was needed for complex e-commerce accounting.
Flensburg Startup Incubator
The start-up idea developed in a Flensburg start-up center: Wolfgang, Gordian's mentor, brought him together with Jan, a developer with experience in e-commerce and big data.
2016 - Foundation of AccountOne
Gordian and Jan spent weekends and long nights laying the initial foundations for the software. Right from the start, it was clear that the best system should be created to bring data from e-commerce into accounting. It quickly became clear: software without service doesn't work.
From part-time job to team
The first inquiries piled up. The transition to self-employment took place gradually - first with Gordian, then also with Jan. Wolfgang also switched and brought marketing and networking expertise with him. The team grew.
