Why we do what we do

We've seen the mess they leave behind

Too many startups get let down by their accountants. Broken bookkeeping. Accounts filed at the last minute. VAT and payroll all over the place.

We’ve seen how much time, money, and momentum founders lose fixing messes that shouldn’t happen in the first place.

We started Startup Accountancy to change that — to give startups the dedicated, reliable, seamless accounting they need from day one.

No more chasing, clunky systems, or wondering where things stand.

Just a clear, tech-enabled service that runs quietly in the background, keeping your business on track while you focus on building it.
