    Software-only accounts

    Free WebFiling and paper filing for accounts close.

Questions

Good questions. Straight answers.

Is it allowed to use AI for company accounts?

Yes. Nothing stops you using software, including AI, to prepare your accounts. What matters is that the figures are right and the director approves them. That's how Surge works: it prepares and checks, and you approve before anything is filed.

Who submits the accounts?

You do, with one tap. Surge prepares everything and files it through approved filing software once you approve. As director, you stay responsible for your company's accounts, as with any software or accountant.

What do I need to give you?

Your company number, your company authentication code (Companies House posts it to your registered office) and your bank statements for the year. Dormant companies need even less.

Does it do corporation tax too?

Yes, for simple companies: the corporation tax return to HMRC, from the same figures. You'll see what you owe before anything is sent.

Is my data safe?

Your documents are encrypted, hosted in the UK/EU, not read by our staff unless you ask for help, and deleted after filing. We keep only what the law requires, such as identity checks.

What if my company is more complex?

If you have staff, VAT, stock or investors, Surge will tell you honestly and point you to an accountant rather than guess.

How is this different from other corporation tax software?

Most filing software expects you to bring the finished figures. Surge works them out from your bank statements, checks every total against your bank, asks only what it can't tell, and files once you approve.

Can I talk to a real person?

Yes. Message us any time and a real person replies, usually within a working day.

When does it launch?

In 2027, well before the April 2028 change. People on the waiting list get access first, at founding-member prices.

Get it sorted before 2028.
