Revenue Recognition

Conrad, Noy, Jedrzej, & Luís

Continuous Revenue Recognition is now available in Kick, giving you a live view of the revenue you’ve earned.

Knowing how much revenue you’ve earned shouldn’t take a spreadsheet.

Manual schedules need updating with every new invoice or contract change. With Kick, revenue recognition is continuous: your policies apply automatically, your reports stay current, and you review what needs your attention.

Here’s what you get:

Continuous Revenue Recognition

Customized recognition policies

  • Recognize revenue straight-line, daily pro rata, at a point in time, or by milestone
  • Combine methods in one policy, like a setup fee with a straight-line subscription
  • Apply different policies to individual line items on the same invoice

Automated recognition

  • Automatically apply policies to new invoices and payments using rules you define
  • Match payments to invoices to prevent duplicate recognition of the same revenue
  • Close tasks flag recognition schedules that need your approval

Live insights & reporting

  • View waterfall and rollforward reports that update as recognition entries post
  • Drill into revenue by customer and policy to see source invoices or payments
  • Track each contract’s recognition history and schedule changes

AI & MCP

With Kick MCP, you can build your own tailored revenue recognition workflows that combine your contract terms, data from other tools, and instructions in Claude or ChatGPT:

  • Read this contract and draft a schedule combining straight-line, milestone, and point-in-time recognition
  • Check my project management tool and mark milestones complete for this schedule
  • Scan client emails and Slack conversations for contract changes missing from the CRM, and suggest schedule updates for my review in Kick
  • Use our ARR/MRR skill with Kick to share a live link with your investors in Google Sheets

If you run or keep the books for a business in software, professional services, construction, or media, set up your policies in Kick for a live view of earned revenue.

To get started, start your free trial of the Advanced Plan, open the Revenue recognition tab and apply your policies.
