Simple, smart and easy to use

Our technology partnerships will automate your admin, saving you time and money

Our firm is run like a start-up. Our cloud-based tech reflects that. Easy to use, fast, reliable and smart software that will make it simpler to run your business, grow and make plans. We give you access to software that makes your life easier, eliminating laborious tasks and automating admin.

We’ll set you up with two cloud-based software packages that we use ourselves – Xero and Dext (previously Receipt Bank). We’ll customise the software for your business, train you in how to use it and provide technical support.

The software is easy to operate, connects your accounts directly to us, and gives you a live view of your financials.

With our help you are left free to concentrate on more important things ‒  increasing your profits and growing your business.

Xero:
Gold Partner

More than two million small businesses around the world use Xero’s online accounting software.

It has all the time-saving tools you need to grow your business, including importing bank transactions, sending invoice reminders and running payroll.

Xero automatically handles tasks so you can get your accounting done faster.

With Xero’s help, we take care of everything for you, so you can get on with what you’re good at.

Xero’s software is compatible with your smartphone and tablet devices, so you can access it from anywhere.

Dext:
(previously Receipt Bank)
Gold Partner

This software lets you capture, store and  track your business receipts, bills, invoices and bank statements. Expense more, pay less tax and fast-track your admin.

It makes claiming expenses simple – just take a snap of each receipt with the app and you’re done.

It reduces your paperwork. As soon as you’ve  logged your invoices and receipts, you can shred them.

And it keeps HMRC happy by creating a clear audit trail for your VAT and company accounts. It’s fully integrated with Xero.

You can add your entire team to Dext at no additional cost.

Tyk Technologies

We began working with Tyk Technologies in 2015 just after it had begun trading. The London-headquartered software company makes a free open-source API Gateway, which is used by thousands of organisations, including some of the world’s biggest brands and smartest start-ups. It was a small company but with big ambitions. It moved from bedroom start-up to VC-funded scaleup within about four years, raising £4m in a Series A from MMC Ventures. Tyk, which has offices in Singapore and Atlanta, now has a team of over 60 people. It’s one of the UK’s fastest growing “scale-ups”.
