Frequently Asked Questions
Can I really replace my accountant with software?
For most small limited companies, yes. AccountsOS handles all the regular work: bookkeeping, VAT returns, Corporation Tax prep, dividend tracking, and compliance. Some complex situations (audits, international, M&A) might still need specialist advice.
What if I make a mistake without an accountant?
AccountsOS has guardrails built in. The AI catches common errors, warns about potential issues (like S455 tax on director's loans), and explains HMRC rules clearly. You're less likely to make mistakes than with a distant accountant who sees your books once a year.
Is it risky to do my own accounts?
Less risky than you'd think. HMRC doesn't require you to use an accountant. With the right tools, many founders manage their own accounts successfully. AccountsOS makes it even easier with AI assistance and built-in compliance checks.
What happens at year-end without an accountant?
AccountsOS prepares your accounts throughout the year, so year-end is just a review. The system generates your balance sheet, P&L, and Corporation Tax calculation automatically. You check it's correct and file. No mad scramble, no surprise fees.
