I'm so happy that I found Ember when I started my limited company. Now it's so easy to keep track of taxes, payroll and expenses. On top of that, you can get advice from an actual accountant. Love the experience of it.

Ember is revolutionising the Accountancy field. You can also connect most bank accounts to interact with the app, like Revolut, Starling or Monzo and that makes the difference. I'm very happy to be part of their journey and I can only strongly recommend them to any limited company.

Good app + Great accountants = Perfection. I haven't stopped ranting about this service to my freelancer & contractor friends. Nor do I intend to. Seriously, try the 1 month trial. You won't be going back.
