Stop paying for features you can't pronounce.
Look, Xero and QuickBooks are amazing pieces of software—if you have 50 employees, a warehouse, and a dedicated finance team. But you’re a sole trader or a landlord. You don't need “multi-currency inventory depreciation.” You just need to know what you owe, and how to tell HMRC without crying into a spreadsheet on a Sunday night.
Start for FREEHow to get started in
3 simple steps.
Connect your bank.
Link your accounts securely using Open Banking. Don’t worry, we can’t touch your money or make payments. We just read the data. We’re tax software, not a cartel.
Avona AI does the boring bits.
Our engine automatically figures out if that £3.50 at Costa is a travel expense or just you needing caffeine. It sorts your transactions into the exact boxes HMRC demands. You just nod and approve.
Submit and relax.
See your real-time tax estimate all year round. When it’s time for your mandatory MTD ITSA quarterly update, submit it directly to HMRC from the dashboard in seconds. Back to your actual job.
Features you’ll actually use, and a bunch you won't need yet.
We stripped out the corporate fluff so you can manage your self-assessment in under 5 minutes a month.
Start for FREEBank account sync.
Step away from the shoebox of receipts.
Securely connect your business or personal bank accounts in one click. We use bank-level, read-only connections. No manual data entry, no downloading CSV files, and no missing expenses.
AI categorisation.
That actually does something useful.
You shouldn't have to learn tax law to do your bookkeeping. Our intelligent engine scans your bank feed and knows the difference between a train ticket to London and a Friday night takeaway. It sorts everything into HMRC’s approved categories automatically.
The serious stuff / Avona Pro.
The hardcore maths (mostly for your accountant).
What happens if you hire an accountant who starts asking for 'Trial Balances'? Underneath our simple interface is a brutally robust accounting engine: Nominal Ledgers, Balance Sheets and advanced reporting. We just hid them on the Lite version so you don't get a migraine.
HMRC submissions (MTD).
The "keep HMRC happy" button.
Making Tax Digital sounds terrifying. We made it a single button. We talk directly to HMRC's secure servers, turning a massive administrative headache into a two-second click.
Ready for Making Tax Digital for Income Tax?
If you’re a sole trader or landlord, the rules change on 6 April 2026 with the rollout of Making Tax Digital for Income Tax. You are legally required to switch to HMRC-Recognised software like Avona if your qualifying income was over £50,000 in the 2024/25 tax year.
Remember, HMRC calculates your qualifying income from your gross turnover across all your sole trades and rentals. That means all the money you brought in before deducting expenses, not your final profit.
