CP52 WebDeck · Ledger✦ grounded — built on VAT returns we've already filed
The account book that keeps itself.
Bank data in. Clean accounts and a prepared VAT return out. You approve.
The most-dreaded part of running a business — the tax bill — handled by your Inkling. It categorises,
reconciles, prepares the return and shows you the salient figures first. Nothing is filed until you say so.
Pulse is its live face: how much cash you have, and how much tax you'll owe.
