Accountancy

Accountancy workflow automation for independent practices

Your team should be on billable work. Instead, they're chasing client documents, running AML checks and doing admin that an AI staff member could handle so your team can stay on client work.

The Challenge

What's eating your practice's time?

Client document chasing

Client document chasing

Clients return signed documents, ID and payroll data on their own schedule. Your team sends the same reminder emails on a loop, manually tracking what's outstanding across dozens of clients and engagements.

AML and KYC administration

AML and KYC administration

Running source-of-funds checks, verifying ID and maintaining AML records for every client engagement is mandatory — but it's a volume task that takes qualified staff away from advisory work.

Accounts preparation and data entry

Accounts preparation and data entry

Pulling data from bank feeds, classifying transactions and preparing draft accounts takes time that compounds across a full client book. Small errors early create review time late.

Deadline and task management

Deadline and task management

Tracking which clients need what and by when — across self-assessment, VAT, corporation tax and payroll — runs on spreadsheets or manual reminders that break under pressure.

AI Staff

AI staff we deploy for accountancy practices

Three roles that take the repeatable admin off your team's plates from day one — each with defined KPIs and a 90-day probation.

ONBOARDING

AML Compliance

Manages the end-to-end onboarding sequence for new clients. Sends welcome packs, chases outstanding documents, runs AML/KYC checks against identity providers and flags exceptions for human sign-off.

KPIS

Time-to-onboarded · Document chase completion rate · AML check turnaround

SUBMISSIOn

Deadline Tracker & Management

Monitors every outstanding document request across your SA, VAT, CT and payroll clients. Sends automated reminders on a schedule you set, escalates to a second chase if needed and surfaces any client approaching a filing deadline with incomplete information.

KPIS

Document receipt rate · Deadline miss rate · Hours returned per week

PREPARATION

Accounts Preparation Support

Classifies transactions, reconciles bank feeds and prepares draft workpapers ready for accountant review. Flags mismatches and unusual items rather than guessing.

KPIS

Time-to-draft · Review query rate · Rework rate

Our Process

A proven framework for adding AI staff to your business.

We use a simple four-phase process to define the role, onboard the agent and track performance from day one.

Define the role

We start by treating this like any new hire. Together we identify the work you want off your team's plate, choose the first role to target, and agree how we'll measure success.

Build and onboard

We build the agent around your tools, data and tone of voice. Accounts set up, access granted, training materials loaded, practice runs in a safe environment.

90-day probation

The agent takes on live work with clear limits. We review performance with you regularly, just as you would with a new hire. Clear KPIs, clear bar.

Performance review

At the end of probation we sit with the data. If the agent is delivering, we widen responsibilities or add a second role. If it isn't, we change the brief or retire it.
