Bookkeeping Is Easy to Start - Hard to Keep Clean

The work looks simple until small mistakes compound across invoices, receipts, bank feeds, reports, tax calculations, and month-end decisions.

Sounds Overwhelming, right?

Finance work gets messy when bookkeeping, bank accounts, tax, payroll, and reporting are handled in separate places. Open Forest keeps the workflow connected.

We’ve walked this path thousands of times before.

We help founders keep finance operations clean with structured workflows, monthly review, and qualified professionals checking the details.

Frequently asked questions

Yes - by senior chartered accountants, on every set of books. We use technology to cut the time and cost of bookkeeping and accounting, but your numbers are never left to software alone. Our experienced accountants oversee everything that runs through the platform, checking for mistakes and inaccuracies before anything is finalised. You get the speed and low cost of automation with the judgement of a qualified professional behind every figure.

We already know your company inside out. Because your company runs on Open Forest from day one, we hold everything from incorporation onwards - your structure, shareholders, filings, and every change along the way. A typical external accountant works from whatever you remember to send them; we work with full context of your company at all times, so less gets missed and nothing is lost in translation.

Sooner than most founders expect. Even before real revenue, your company has books to keep, tax registrations to track, and its first filing deadlines approaching. Starting clean from day one is far cheaper and easier than untangling it a year later.

Yes. We record your income and bills, reconcile your bank, and track expenses every month, so your numbers are always current and nothing piles up.

Very little, and we prompt you for it. Connect your bank, forward your invoices and bills, and follow the simple monthly checklist. We take it from there.

None of your own - all the accounting and bookkeeping software you need is included in your package. We set it up and cover the cost, so it's one less thing for you to arrange.

Yes. Your finance workflow can include VAT returns, payroll and payroll taxes, and year-end tax preparation, all connected to your bookkeeping so the numbers flow straight through.

Yes. Because we keep your books clean all year, year-end is a formality rather than a fire drill. We prepare your financial statements and corporation tax, and filing can be added so your returns reach the Company Registry and tax authority on time.

Our packages scale with your business - based on things like monthly transactions and revenue - so you start on the plan that fits now and move up only as you grow. See the tiers on our pricing page.
