How it works
Bypass complex financial software
aihtax is the straight path for cash-accounting sole traders and landlords who are not VAT registered: capture receipts, download transactions, match them, read your monthly and annual ledger, and submit Making Tax Digital returns.
The five steps
- 01
Capture receipts
Photograph or upload receipts and invoices. OCR pulls vendor, date, and amount so you skip retyping.
- 02
Import bank transactions
Download transactions from your bank CSV or connect Open Banking feeds — no full accounting suite required.
- 03
Match evidence
Link receipts to bank lines so every expense has a digital trail HMRC can follow.
- 04
See your ledger
Review monthly and annual books in plain language — income, expenses, and running totals.
- 05
File MTD returns
Submit quarterly updates and your annual declaration yourself, or hand the year-end to your accountant.
Quarterly updates
Keep digital records through the year. When an obligation is due, submit your quarterly update from the same matched ledger — no re-keying into HMRC forms.
Annual declaration — your choice
If the year is simple, submit your Final Declaration yourself. If it is more complex, invite your accountant to review and file using the same evidence trail.
