Case Study: STR Helper achieves rapid driver-based modeling and investor-ready financials with Jirav

STR Helper Gains New Insights to Launch Business Forward with Jirav’s Drag & Drop Modeling and Comparisons

STR Helper, a fast-growing provider of end-to-end short-term rental licensing and compliance software, lacked a formal financial model, clear operational insights, and reliable reporting needed to pursue investors and scale. Facing complex validation cost calculations, recurring payroll errors, and limited visibility into KPIs, STR Helper adopted Jirav (Jirav Pro) to build a driver-based planning and reporting foundation.

Jirav connected to STR Helper’s Xero and Gusto data (and Excel files) in about 30 seconds and enabled drag-and-drop modeling, side-by-side scenario comparisons, and customized property validation costing. The Jirav solution delivered measurable impact—about 50 hours saved versus building models in Excel, budget vs. actuals updates in under 30 seconds, and model adjustments in roughly 5 minutes—while giving leadership real-time dashboards, clearer decision-making, and rapid ROI.
