Sound familiar?

You didn’t start a business to spend Sundays on spreadsheets.

"I spent all Sunday doing my books"

Manual spreadsheets, receipts in shoeboxes, bank statements piling up. Dreading tax season because you know the backlog is waiting.

"How much tax do I actually owe?"

No idea until year-end. Then a nasty surprise — and penalties if you file late. You need real-time visibility, not guesswork.

"MTD starts in April — what do I need?"

New HMRC rules, confusing software options, and you don't want to pay an accountant £500/year just to stay compliant.

Three steps. That’s it.

No accounting knowledge required

1

Upload your bank statement

CSV or PDF from any UK bank. AI detects the format automatically — Barclays, HSBC, Starling, Monzo, you name it.

2

AI categorises everything

Every transaction sorted into the right tax category. Fix one and Distil learns for next time. It gets smarter the more you use it.

3

File your tax return

VAT and Income Tax (ITSA) submitted to HMRC in one click. No separate MTD software needed.

Everything you need to run your books

One app. No add-ons. No accountant required.
