Industries & software

We know the books before we open them.

Your firm is our client. The sectors below are your clients — the entities whose files we handle on your behalf, and where we already know what to expect in the ledger and where the tax questions usually sit.

Running something we have not listed?

Tell us the software and the sector. We will give you a straight answer about whether it is in our range, rather than saying yes and learning on your file.

You manage the client. We help you manage the workload.
