Perfect for a driving heavy trade

You outgrow it the second you register for VAT or incorporate. Reporting is thin beyond income and expenses. Looking at alternatives.

Pros

Everything is on the phone, which suits how I actually work.

Cons

You outgrow it the second you register for VAT or incorporate.

Mixed. Receipts scan straight in and the categories are usually right, but you outgrow it the second you register for VAT or incorporate.

The Self Assessment view maps to the boxes so January is calm now, and quarterly updates went to HMRC with no fuss at all. The AI features are labelled beta and feel like it, but we live with it.
