Accounting-native tools

Organisation-scoped contacts, accounts, documents, payments, and postings are exposed as clear operations with structured inputs and outputs.

Agent-native control

Keep credentials server-side, scope every connection, and reserve consequential actions for explicit approval.

Grounded in real accounting records.

Agents work against the same contacts, chart of accounts, invoices, purchase bills, credit notes, payments, reports, VAT settings, and tax rates as the human interface. MCP turns those records into a coherent tool surface while keeping journal logic and audit history intact.

Own the agent, tools, and data.

Self-host the application, keep credentials in your own environment, and decide which MCP clients can access each organisation. The same deployment still supports invoices, reconciliation, reports, optional HMRC MTD VAT, and mail delivery. Every capability is ready for agent workflows.
