Everything a small business needs.
Nothing it doesn't.

Most accounting software is built for accountants. Ours is built for the person running the business.

Invoices in a minute

Pick a customer, add what you did, and send. VAT and totals are worked out for you as you type.

Automatic, polite reminders

When an invoice runs late, we send a friendly reminder, then a firmer one. They stop the moment you're paid.

Bills read for you

Forward a supplier bill to your own inbox address. We read the amounts and VAT automatically, and you check them before anything is added.

Reports in plain English

Estimates of sales, costs, profit and VAT, by month or by tax year. No debits, no credits, no confusion.

Proper books underneath

Every invoice, payment and bill is recorded properly behind the scenes, with a full history of who changed what.

Works wherever you are

On your laptop at the desk or your phone in the van. Mark a job as paid the moment the money lands.

Automatic chasing

Questions

Do I need to know about accounting?

No. Everything is in plain English: who owes you, who you owe, and what you've made. The proper bookkeeping happens behind the scenes.

Will my customers find the reminders pushy?

They're short and polite, and start gently. You choose which days they go out, and you can pause reminders for any customer or put an invoice on hold.

Does it handle VAT?

It works out VAT at 20%, 5% or 0% on each invoice line, and reports give you an estimate of the VAT position. It doesn't submit VAT returns to HMRC, and it isn't a substitute for an accountant. If you're not VAT registered, just use 0%.

Is my data private?

Each business's records are kept separate, and only people you invite can see them. Every change is logged with who made it and when.
