Key features

Cloud Accounting System

Track your income and expenses in real time through our Pulse portal. Record transactions, upload receipts, log business mileage and working from home allowance — all from your browser or our mobile app.

Your accounts are always up to date and ready when you need them.

Professional Invoicing

Create and send professional invoices directly from Pulse. Add your contacts, build invoices with line items, generate a PDF and store it securely — all in one place. Mark invoices as paid and the payment is recorded in your income ledger automatically.

CIS subcontractors can apply the correct deduction rate per invoice.

VAT and CIS options

If you’re VAT registered, Pulse can track your VAT on transactions and generates your quarterly figures ready for submission.

CIS subcontractors can log their deduction rate, flag which clients deduct CIS, and see the correct net and gross figures on every invoice and in their reports.

HMRC-Compliant Record Keeping

Every transaction is recorded exactly the way HMRC expects it. View your profit and loss, indicative tax and National Insurance figures at any time.

When you’re ready to submit your Self Assessment, your figures are already organised — and our team can submit your return directly to HMRC if you have the Tax Return add-on.

Small Business Solutions

Designed for busy sole traders and freelancers, Pulse brings all your financial admin into one place.

Track income and expenses across multiple self-employed activities or businesses. View monthly and annual profit and loss reports, monitor your VAT position, and see an up-to-date tax estimate based on your actual figures — not a rough guess.

Create professional invoices with your business name and address, apply VAT where applicable, and handle CIS deductions automatically. When a client pays, mark the invoice as paid and the income is recorded for you.

If you’re on our VAT package, we’ll monitor your quarterly returns and keep you on the right side of Making Tax Digital. And if you need help, we’re a message away.

Your accounts, on the go

Our popular mobile app gives you quick access to the features you need most while you’re out and about.

Log expenses with receipt photos, track your mileage with smart route calculation, review recent entries, and keep an eye on your estimated tax liability — all from your phone.

The app works alongside our full Pulse accounting system with new features added regularly. There’s no additional charge for our app.
