Bookkeeping that keeps itself straight
Invoots is accounting software for small businesses in the UK. Record a sale, a bill or a payment in plain terms, and the double-entry underneath stays correct — so your VAT figures and your year-end come from books that already add up.
Built for UK rules: pounds sterling, UK VAT rates, and the UK financial year. Your chart of accounts is ready the moment you create a company.

The whole cycle, from first sale to final report
Each entry posts straight to your ledger, so the books are correct as you work rather than at the deadline.
Sales receipts
Build a receipt from your saved products and services, with the right VAT rate on each line. Invoots works out the totals and posts the entry.
Debit bank, credit sales and VAT
Bills and expenses
Record supplier invoices when they arrive and settle them when you pay. Day-to-day spending goes in as a single expense, coded to the right account.
Debit expense and VAT, credit creditors
Bank reconciliation
Work down your statement line by line. Match a line to something you have already entered, categorise it, or exclude it. Nothing reaches your books until you say so.
Your balance ties back to the bank
VAT on every line
VAT is tracked on every sale and purchase as you go, across standard, reduced, zero-rated and exempt supplies.
The quarter adds up as you work
Reports
A trial balance for any period, a customer balance report showing who owes you what and which invoices are overdue, and the general ledger behind them both.
Debits and credits total the same
Your accountant, in the same books
Invite your bookkeeper or accountant and give each person the access their role needs. Run several companies from one login.
No files emailed at quarter end
Who it’s for
Sole traders, limited companies, contractors, agencies, trades and small shops in the United Kingdom — and the bookkeepers and accountants who look after them.
It fits if a spreadsheet has stopped being comfortable but you do not want software that assumes you have a finance department. You never have to write a journal entry: record what happened, and Invoots keeps the accounting behind it correct.
If you already work with an accountant, invite them into your company and give them the access they need.
