The real value

It replaces a whole shelf of subscriptions.

Most people pay for a separate tool for each of these. Lekhio keeps the books, the invoices, the mileage and your tax workings in one app. Sending returns to HMRC or accounts to Companies House still needs filing software or an accountant.

Bookkeeping app
£10 to £20
Invoicing tool
£10 to £25
Mileage tracker
£5 to £10
One employee. From £13.99.
Everything above is its job.

Questions, answered.

Do I have to be a tradesperson?+
No. Lekhio is for anyone running their own business or letting property in the UK: sole traders, partnerships, limited company directors and landlords. A barber, a driver, a tutor, a freelancer, a plumber. If you keep receipts or send invoices, it is for you.
What is Making Tax Digital?+
From April 2026, sole traders and landlords whose 2024 to 2025 return showed gross qualifying income over £50,000 keep digital records and send HMRC a short update each quarter. The tax return stays: you send it by 31 January, as now. The line drops to £30,000 from April 2027 and £20,000 from April 2028, each tested on a return already filed. Making Tax Digital for Income Tax does not apply to a limited company: a company has corporation tax and company accounts instead. Lekhio keeps the records either way, as you work.
Does this mean paying tax four times a year?+
No, that is a common myth. You send four short updates a year, but you still pay your tax on the normal dates.
Does Lekhio file my tax for me?+
Lekhio prepares your figures. You always review and approve before anything is sent, and you stay responsible for your tax. HMRC has granted Lekhio production access for Making Tax Digital for Income Tax, but the part of Lekhio that sends is not built yet, so Lekhio cannot send anything to HMRC today. Until it can, you send your quarterly update through other software that works with Making Tax Digital, or your accountant does, and Lekhio gives you the figures as a CSV file to import.
What if a receipt is read wrong?+
You see every entry and can fix the amount, the shop, or the category in a tap. Nothing counts until you confirm it.
Is my financial data safe?+
Yes. Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, you can only ever see your own records, and you can export or delete everything whenever you want.
