The Challenge

UK small businesses were spending 5+ hours per week on bookkeeping and paying accountants thousands annually for basic tax filing. The founders needed an AI-first accounting tool that auto-categorises transactions, handles MTD (Making Tax Digital) VAT filing, and generates tax-ready reports, making accountants optional for basic compliance.

The Solution

Ubikon built a Next.js accounting platform with Plaid for automatic bank feed ingestion, GPT-4 powered transaction categorisation (95% accuracy), double-entry ledger with real-time P&L and balance sheet, HMRC MTD API integration for one-click VAT filing, and Stripe billing for the SaaS subscription layer.
