How much time is your team wasting copying data from Excel workpapers into your accounts platform each time? When your workpapers and accounts are fully connected on one platform, data flows straight through. No double entry. No rework.

Most firms don’t want to give up Excel. So we built a SaaS platform that leverages it — bringing the control of Excel into a safe, structured, cloud environment that works across your firm.

Still relying on spreadsheet templates and file naming gymnastics for your workpapers? We get it. Here’s what it looks like when year-end gets cleaned up and everyone works the same way.

Everyone loves the announcement. But what happens after the deal is done? 👉 In reality, most acquisitions in this sector don’t create one firm; they create five systems under one roof. Each with different tools. Different processes. Different tech debt. And while the logos get merged on day one, the workflows can stay fragmented for years. That’s why I’m joining Cerith Williams, Unity Accountancy, and Neil Criddle, Neil's Data Consultancy, on 16 September at 11:00 to talk about how leading firms are aligning their compliance stack without blowing things up. We’ll cover what happens after the ink dries, and how to bring order to the post-M&A chaos. If you're managing multiple offices, merging teams, or just trying to make sense of five ways of doing the same job, this one's for you.

Your AI can write an email. Can it see your client’s workpapers? For most firms, no. The AI sits outside the files where year-end work happens. Active’s MCP server (now in preview) connects the two. On Wednesday 28 October, we’re showing it live, with Claude connected to Active: - Open client queries rounded up in one place, with your people in control - What the AI can and can’t see: read-only by default, limited to the signed-in user’s access - How “bring your own AI” works with Claude and Microsoft 365 Copilot A live demo, not slides. 📅 Wednesday 28 October, 11:00 to 12:00 (UK) 🎙️ Hosted by Andy Collings and Michael Ovens, with time for your questions.
