How we work

How your books actually get done.

With Balance, you get the benefits of AI and automation, without the work.

Getting started

Three easy steps.

Most clients are fully handed over inside two weeks. There is no system to learn and nothing to migrate - we come to your ledger.

01

Book a call with us

Fifteen minutes. We look at your books, your systems and where the work sits today, then tell you whether we are a match. If we are not, we will say so.

02

We handle the handover

A 30-minute handover call with your current bookkeeper, or just a handover letter. We deal with them directly, so you are not relaying messages between two firms.

03

You add us, we set up

Your accounting system, your bank feed, payroll if we run it, and the invoices inbox. That is all we need. We handle setup, learn your processes, and get your agents running.

Bea

Ask Bea, your financial AI assistant, anything.

Slack, WhatsApp or email. She reads your live ledger, so the answer is what is actually in the books rather than what was true at the last month end.

Your VAT position

Ask what is due and when it was filed. The answer comes from the books as they stand today.

What is our VAT position this quarter?
Bea
£12,480 due this quarter, already filed.

Bea
£4,310 across 14 subscriptions, up £680 on last month.
