We automate finance & accounting work for companies in Manchester. Below are the 15 workflows we build most often, each one tuned to how things are done in the UK.
We map how your finance work runs today, then automate the repetitive steps, such as accounts payable & three-way matching, accounts receivable & invoice reminders, expense report auditing & card reconciliation, inside Xero and Sage and your other tools. Most Manchester teams start with one workflow from £399 and have it live in one to three weeks.

Finance teams in the UK deal with VAT returns under Making Tax Digital, CIS deductions if you're in construction, and RTI payroll submissions. Most of the businesses we work with there run Xero, Sage and QuickBooks, and we build straight into those. On e-invoicing, HMRC's MTD rules already want your VAT records kept digitally, and with mandatory e-invoicing on the way from 2029 it makes sense to get the invoice flow clean now.
Manchester is ecommerce heavy, with digital agencies and a big media cluster at MediaCity. Online retailers here tend to grow fast and outrun their back office around the £5m mark. For finance teams in ecommerce, digital agencies and media, that usually means the same handful of tasks done by hand every week. Those are the ones we go after first.
Each one is built for your tools and your rules. Here's the problem it solves and what changes.

Start with whatever is done most often and by the most expensive people. For a lot of Manchester teams that's accounts payable & three-way matching. It's high volume, it follows clear rules and you see the hours come back in the first month.
Almost always. In the UK we mostly work with Xero, Sage, HubSpot and BrightPay, plus email, Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. If something has an API or even just an export, we can usually work with it.
Yes. We use least-privilege access, encrypted credentials and keep data in UK (London) cloud regions when that's needed. Everything is documented in line with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, and we sign an NDA or DPA before we start.
