The problem

Your qualified team is doing unqualified work.

Every hour an accountant spends chasing a bank statement or formatting a proposal is an hour not spent on advisory work. The admin burden in accounting practices is enormous — and almost entirely automatable.

Document chasing is constant and humiliating
You send a request, wait, chase, wait, chase again. Bank statements, payroll records, receipts — collected manually via email for every client, every period. It never ends and it doesn't need a human to do it.
4–6h/week per manager
Proposals take too long to produce
Every new client proposal is built from scratch — scope, pricing, engagement letter, terms. A process that takes 2–3 hours could take 20 minutes with the right automation behind it.
2–3h per prospect
Deadlines feel like a recurring crisis
Self-assessment, VAT, corporation tax, payroll year-end — the calendar is packed. Without automated reminders and client chasing, every deadline is a scramble that stresses your team and clients alike.
Penalty risk + client churn
Client onboarding is slow and error-prone
AML checks, engagement letters, professional clearance requests, HMRC authorisation — each step manual, each handover a chance for something to slip. New clients wait weeks to feel properly onboarded.
6–10h per new client
Monthly reporting is still manual
Management accounts, VAT returns, payroll summaries — collated, formatted, and distributed by hand every month. A repeatable process with the same structure every time, done manually every time.
3–5h per client per month
Time recording gaps kill your billing
Work gets done, time doesn't get recorded. Or it gets recorded late and imprecisely. The gap between billable time performed and billable time invoiced is a direct drain on firm profitability.
10–15% billing leakage avg.
New enquiries get a slow, inconsistent response
A prospect emails your firm. Someone replies when they get a chance. There's no standardised intake, no immediate acknowledgement, no consistent qualification process. You lose them to the firm that responded in 10 minutes.

      Before Ignyss. After Ignyss.

      The same firm. The same team. Completely different capacity.

      Before · Manual operations
      Managers spend Friday afternoons chasing bank statements by email and phone
      New client proposals take 2–3 hours to build from a blank template
      Deadline calendars managed in spreadsheets, chased manually at month-end
      Client onboarding takes 2–3 weeks due to manual AML and engagement letter chasing
      Monthly reports formatted and emailed manually — same process every month
      Time goes unrecorded; billing reviews catch it weeks later — or not at all
      After · Ignyss automation
      Document requests sent and chased automatically — nothing arrives without a chase sequence behind it
      Proposal generated from structured inputs in 20 minutes, engagement letter auto-attached
      Every deadline tracked and client-chased automatically — team only intervenes on failures
      Onboarding completes in days — AML triggered, letters sent, HMRC authorised, all tracked
      Reports generated and distributed on schedule — zero manual formatting
      Time capture prompted automatically; billing gaps flagged before invoices go out

      Connects to the tools your practice already uses.

      We integrate with your practice management software, accounting platforms, and communication tools. No rip-and-replace required.

      Built for firms that bill on expertise, not admin.

      "

      Every hour your senior team spends chasing a bank statement is an hour not spent on the advisory work your clients actually value — and pay premium rates for.

      Core principle · Ignyss Accounting
      "

      The firms that will dominate the next decade won't be the ones with the best accountants. They'll be the ones who freed their accountants from the work that didn't need them.

      Operational insight · Ignyss
      "

      Compliance deadlines don't move. But the way you manage them can. A system that never forgets is better than a spreadsheet that always needs updating.
