Genius Books

Your records, in order. Your VAT return, worked out — not typed in.

Genius Books keeps the records Making Tax Digital requires, fills your VAT return in from them, and shows you where every figure came from before anything goes to HMRC.

In development — VAT first, Income Tax to follow. You cannot file to HMRC yet: filing switches on only when our testing says it is ready.

The nine boxes of your VAT return, filled in from your records.

Plain language

Money in, money out, what was it, done. The hard rules run underneath so the screen never has to show them.

Every figure explainable

Each box of the return opens into the transactions behind it. Nothing you cannot trace, nothing you cannot defend.

Nothing silently deleted

Corrections are recorded, never erased. You can always see what changed, when, and why.

Ledger, in the dark, is how Genius Books comes. But the colours are yours: ten schemes, all accessibility-checked, in light and dark — try them here, keep the one you like in your account settings.

Trying on: Ledger

Bookkeeping green on paper. The traditional colour of a well-kept ledger — calm, solvent, nothing to hide.
