Graph Advisors is an advisory firm that pairs a fractional CFO with forward deployed engineering for VC funds, PE firms, family offices, and the companies they back. Every engagement is led by a partner who has built, backed, and scaled funds and startups.
The team has sat in every seat: founder, investor, CFO, and COO. That gives Graph Advisors a direct lens into the operational needs of today's funds and firms, from guiding a fund from Fund I to Fund III, to stabilizing an operations function after a close, to designing the finance layer of a roll up. Clients own the work: every model, system, and document lives in their own repos and drives.
Eric Friedman is Co-founder and Managing Partner and leads finance, operations, and strategy. He has led finance and operations across early stage startups, venture funds, and accelerators, including Union Square Ventures, Foursquare, Expa, and On Deck, and has served as a fractional COO and CFO for VC firms and portfolio companies.

They are supported by a boutique team of full time finance and engineering leaders: controllers and finance leaders with backgrounds across fund administration, audit, accounting, and finance, and forward deployed engineers with full stack, DevOps, front end, and back end depth.
Every client has a single human point of contact. On finance, a fractional CFO runs point, backed by a controller with fund administration depth. On engineering, an embedded forward deployed engineer runs point, backed by a full time development team. Graph Advisors works at the intersection of finance, operations, and engineering, and focuses on VC funds, PE firms, and family offices.
