Dave Haase is Founder and CEO of Juno, an AI-powered tax preparation automation platform built specifically for SMB accounting firms tired of 60-hour busy seasons.

Dave is a licensed CPA who built Golden State Accounting into a regional powerhouse serving thousands of clients, and holds an MBA from Stanford University Graduate School of Business.

In 2023, after witnessing a live ChatGPT demo successfully file a tax return, Dave recognized both the transformative potential and serious risks of AI in tax, which became the founding thesis for Juno.

Dave founded Juno in 2023, iterating the product inside his own accounting firm for over a year before selling the practice to focus on Juno full time, then raising a $12M seed round led by Bonfire Ventures.

Juno has grown to nearly 500 customer firms, automates 90% of data entry across 92+ document types, and cuts tax prep time by 50%, with strategic integrations with TaxDome and K1x already live.
