Nella connects read-only to your Xero, FreeAgent or Sage and turns your live ledger into a plain-English finance insight pack in minutes. Then you can ask Nella anything about your own figures — VAT, Corporation Tax, cash runway, director pay — free for 60 days.
Nella provides financial information and education, not accounting or tax advice.
Nella is an AI finance assistant from AccTek that connects to your cloud accounting software in read-only mode and answers questions about your own numbers in plain English. It reads your live figures from Xero, FreeAgent or Sage, builds a finance insight pack, and flags what needs attention — but it never files, never writes to your books, and never gives advice in place of your accountant.
Most accounting tools are built for compliance: they file returns and store records. Nella is built for clarity. It sits on top of your ledger as an intelligence layer, so a founder can ask “can I afford to hire?” or “what’s my Corporation Tax going to be?” and get a grounded answer from real data — not a generic AI guess, and not a two-week wait for a management pack.
That reflects how AccTek works: people powered, AI accelerated. Automation handles the reading, sorting and monitoring. Qualified accountants handle the judgement. You get the speed of software with the accountability of a real UK firm behind it.
Not a demo on dummy data. Nella reads your live ledger and works from day one — free for 60 days, no card required.
Key figures, the movements that matter, debtor and cash signals, and the questions worth raising with your accountant — built from your live data.
Plain-English answers from your live figures: VAT and Corporation Tax, cash flow and runway, “can I afford to hire?” — grounded in your own numbers.
The movements that matter and any anomalies worth knowing about — read in seconds, instead of hunting through reports at month-end.
Upcoming Companies House and HMRC dates, flagged from the public register, so nothing creeps up on you.
Choose Xero, FreeAgent or Sage and authorise a read-only connection through your provider’s own secure login. Nella can view your figures; it can never edit them.
Nella pulls your live numbers — profit and loss, balance sheet, debtors, cash — and builds your finance insight pack automatically.
Ask Nella about VAT, Corporation Tax, runway or director pay in plain English — on WhatsApp, web chat or ChatGPT. Answers come from your real data.
When a question needs professional judgement, Nella routes it to a qualified AccTek accountant. You stay in control of every filing and decision.
No new app to learn. Nella answers in the tools you already have open.

Nella is an intelligence layer, not filing software. Your accountant still signs off every return and decision that needs professional judgement.
Yes, it is safe to connect Xero, FreeAgent or Sage to Nella. The connection is strictly read-only and enforced by your accounting provider’s own permission system.

Nella works best for owner-managed limited companies that live in the numbers: startups, SaaS businesses, consultants, agencies and contractors who want real-time clarity, not a once-a-year catch-up.
