A complete practice workflow

Stop building the same job again in five different places.

Balansix is designed so the work created at one stage becomes the starting point for the next: client setup feeds tasks, accounting feeds year end, year end feeds accounts production, and the same numbers feed advisory.

Real practice visibility

See the firm before the firm starts chasing you.

Outstanding work, overdue tasks, engagement progress, fees and team capacity should not live in separate spreadsheets. Balansix brings the operational picture together so directors and managers can see what needs attention.

Work and deadlines in one viewRecurring and one-off tasks sit with the client and service they belong to.
Capacity without another timesheet exerciseUse time and responsibility data to understand workload and client profitability.
Role-based visibilityGive each user the information and actions appropriate to their role.

Built from practice

Balansix did not begin with a software feature list. It began with the day-to-day friction of running an accountancy practice and asking: why is the same client being rebuilt at every stage of the work?

Built by Mr H Hammad FCCA, ACA - an ICAEW Chartered Accountant and the current CEO of a UK accountancy practice. The product philosophy is simple: automate repeatable work, keep professional controls visible, and let information flow forward.

Common questions

What Balansix actually does.

The short answers practice owners ask for before they book a demo.

What is Balansix, in one sentence?

Balansix is a single platform that runs a UK accountancy practice end to end — taking a client on, collecting their records, doing the bookkeeping, posting the year-end journals, producing the statutory accounts and turning those numbers into advisory reporting, all on one set of figures.

Why "six"?

Six pillars, shown as the six segments of the hexagon mark: practice management, capture, bookkeeping, final accounts, insight and secure cloud delivery. Each pillar feeds the next rather than sitting in a separate system.

What does it replace?

The stack most practices currently pay for separately — a receipt-capture tool, a bookkeeping ledger, a final-accounts package, a proposal or engagement-letter system, an advisory report builder and a spreadsheet for staff time. One subscription and one login instead of five.

Does it do bookkeeping and statutory accounts, or only one of them?

Both, and that is the point. The trial balance produced by the bookkeeping is the same trial balance the statutory accounts are built from, so nothing is re-keyed or reconciled between packages. Accounts are produced under FRS 102 Section 1A and FRS 105.

What happens at year end?

Depreciation, accruals, prepayments, accrued and deferred income, loan schedules and payroll journals are calculated and posted as the year runs, with loan balances split between amounts falling due within and after one year. Year end becomes a review rather than a rebuild.

Does it guess at coding it isn't sure about?

No. Bank matching is scored: confident matches post, borderline items are suggested for a one-click confirm, and anything unclear goes to a suspense queue for a person to decide. Every figure traces back to the document it came from.

Do clients get access?

Yes. Clients upload records, raise their sales invoices and see their own position through their own portal, without needing a licence of their own.

Who is it for?

UK accountancy practices — from a sole practitioner through to a multi-partner firm. It is built around how a practice works, not around how a business owner keeps their own books.

How does Balansix use OCR and AI?

Balansix separates deterministic accounting logic from OCR and AI-assisted workflows. Accounting calculations, schedules and journals remain controlled accounting-system outputs; OCR reduces re-keying and AI can assist explanation and prioritisation, with professional review retained where judgement is required.

Who built it?

Mr H Hammad FCCA, ACA — an ICAEW Chartered Accountant and the current chief executive of a UK accountancy practice, who is also the principal architect, designer and developer of the platform. It was specified from inside a working practice rather than by a software company asking accountants afterwards.

One client. One record. Every stage of the work.
