Live management reporting, without the month-end spreadsheet.

We build management reporting for businesses whose numbers live in Xero, a CRM, a project tool and several spreadsheets. Everything is pulled into one place, so revenue, margin, cash, pipeline and utilisation are always current, and you can ask questions about them in plain English.

What we build, around how your team already works.

  • Every source in one place

    Xero, your CRM, project tool, payroll and spreadsheets, matched on the same clients and jobs.

  • Live dashboards

    Revenue, margin, cash, pipeline and utilisation, updated as the numbers change.

  • Board pack in one click

    The monthly pack is produced in your format, with commentary drafted for you to edit.

  • Ask in plain English

    Ask Copilot or Claude which clients had the lowest margin last quarter, and get the answer with the numbers behind it.

  • Alerts

    A warning when cash, margin or utilisation moves outside the range you set.

  • Traceable figures

    Every figure links back to the records behind it.

Common questions, answered.

Do we need Power BI?

No. Dashboards are built into your system. If you already use Power BI, we can feed it clean data instead.

How do we know the numbers are right?

Each figure links to the records behind it, and totals are checked against Xero every day.

Can it include forecasts?

Yes. Cash and revenue forecasts can be built from your pipeline, contracts and costs.

How much does custom management reporting cost?

It's part of managed software: a senior developer, product manager, design, QA and ongoing fixes for a flat $6,000£4,500€5,300 a month, plus hosting at cost. There are no per-seat fees and no minimum term, and your first system is live within 30 days.
