Latest Highlights
Cash P&L
A period-by-period Cash P&L built straight from the statements — income, debt service, director transfers, HMRC, payroll and expenses by month, with opening/closing balance reconciliation, drill-down to the underlying transactions and one-click Excel export.
Affordability Summary
An instant, plain-language affordability write-up for underwriters, built straight from the statement figures — income, costs, balances and more — with no manual typing.
Rules
Define your own underwriting rules per product and run statements through them to get a clear, consistent decision every time.
- Improved Date accuracy: The day/month order is now worked out from the statement as a whole, so ambiguous dates and US-style month-first statements are read correctly, and transaction years are kept within the statement period
- Improved Money in/out accuracy: Where a statement prints a running balance, it's used to catch and correct the occasional money-in vs money-out mix-up or misread amount
- New Cash P&L multi-currency: Statements holding more than one currency (e.g. Wise, Revolut) now show a currency switcher, with figures never mixed across currencies and a separate set of Excel sheets per currency
- New Cash P&L number formatting: Show figures as exact pence, whole pounds, thousands (k) or millions (m), with a sensible default for the size of the numbers
- Improved Cash P&L savings pots: Money moved to and from savings pots and sub-accounts (e.g. Monzo Pots) is now treated as an internal transfer, so it no longer inflates income or expenses or upsets the balance reconciliation
- Improved Excel downloads: The Excel option now produces a true .xlsx workbook, and the download dialog shows the real file name
- Improved Documents list: Completed documents now show their page count
- New Cash P&L: A new page that rolls up a project's transactions into a month-by-month Cash P&L — income, new borrowing, debt interest and repayments, director transfers, HMRC (VAT, PAYE/NIC, CT), payroll, rent and other operating expenses — with net cash movement and per-month opening/closing balance reconciliation
- New Drill-down: Click any line or monthly figure to see the exact transactions behind it
- New Lender counterparties: Payments to banks and lenders are grouped by counterparty so declared lenders can be cross-checked against actual bank activity
- New Excel export: Download the full statement, lender list and classified transactions matching the on-screen view
- New Page Packs: Top up with extra pages whenever you need them — 100, 500 or 1,000 — on top of your monthly allowance. They never expire and roll over month to month, so nothing is wasted
- New Automatic top-up: Once your monthly pages are used, conversions keep running against your page-pack balance with no interruption — including over the API
- New Buy in a click: Purchase packs and see your wallet balance any time under Settings → Your Plan
- Improved Salary & Wages: Recurring wage payments are now matched across the whole statement, even in months where the bank drops the "salary" label — giving an accurate months-covered count and average monthly wage bill
- Improved Revenue Streams: Income sources that differ only by a payment reference are now grouped into a single payer, so top revenue sources reflect real counterparties instead of dozens of one-off rows
- Improved Rent Expenses: Rent payees are now grouped by recipient even when the reference number varies between payments
- Improved Recurring Payments & Lender Flag: Better counterparty matching catches recurring payments and dual-direction lenders that vary by reference
- Improved Reference Cleanup: Grouping now handles OCR-split references, with a "provisional grouping" note shown whenever similar names are merged
- Improved Unpaid Items: Added the "Reversal" keyword, a per-row flag column, and a breakdown by type so returned and reversed transactions are easier to spot
- Improved Cleaner Metrics: Whole-number figures like Days Covered now display without trailing decimals, and the analysis view has a tidier header
- New Decisioning & Products: Define lending products with their own rule sets, run statements through an underwriting decision engine with cover-ratio and affordability checks, and export the results
- New Signals Dashboard: An at-a-glance grid of risk and affordability signals on the analysis page for decisioning teams

- New Lender Flag Analyzer: Flags dual-direction counterparties that may indicate loans or invoice finance
