Why this app, not a generic one

Built around real UK sole trader work — not adapted from enterprise software.

Most bookkeeping apps are built for accountants or big businesses first, then simplified. Tax Sole Trader started the other way round: from the actual weekly workflow of a UK sole trader, subcontractor or driver.

CIS built in from day one

Not a bolt-on afterthought — 20%/30%/gross deduction handling is core to how the app works, not a checkbox added later.

Genuinely free tier, forever

Real day-to-day invoicing, transactions, receipts and mileage — no account, no card, no trial clock running.

Your data stays yours

Local-first by default. Cloud sync is something you switch on, not something forced on you from day one.

Direct HMRC filing, not just exports

Submit VAT returns and quarterly Income Tax updates straight to HMRC — not just a PDF you re-type elsewhere.

Custom workspace

Arrange the app around the way you work.

The Home screen is not just a menu. It is a personalised business workspace. Users can arrange tools around their daily routine — invoices first, receipts first, VAT first, or bank connection first.

Is Tax Sole Trader for UK sole traders?

Yes. The product is designed around UK self-employed workflows including income, expenses, receipts, invoices, VAT, CIS and Self Assessment style reporting.

Is there a free version?

Yes. The Free plan is genuinely free forever — no account, no card, no subscription. It covers real day-to-day invoicing, transactions, receipts, mileage and a final VAT/Self Assessment figure. Premium adds the detailed breakdowns, exports, MTD quarterly reports and direct HMRC filing, with a 14-day free trial (no card required, once per account) before you pay anything.

Does it support VAT and Flat Rate VAT?

Yes. The app includes standard VAT, Flat Rate VAT, VAT schemes, quarter selection, VAT Return boxes and VAT-related exports.

Does it support CIS?

Yes. CIS is a core differentiator: CIS suffered, construction workflows, gross scheme and CIS-aware invoice/reporting logic.

Why this exists

Tax Sole Trader is built by a solo, independent developer — not a big accounting software company. It started from watching real UK sole traders, subcontractors and drivers struggle with software built for someone else's business. Every feature exists because a real workflow needed it, not because a roadmap said so.
