AccountKit
Who are you?
We are AccountKit - we've created an online toolkit for accountants to service both our own practice and the broader accounting
community, primarily in AU.
What do you do?
We have a set of tools that integrate with Xero, Xero Practice
Manager and a bunch of other essential apps for a cloud accounting /
bookkeeping practice. The aim is to automate, reduce clicks and create visibility across a variety of usually manual tasks. It's a
modular kit, in that they can pick and choose which tools they'd like to use - such as Business Structure Diagrams, Inter-entity Loan
reconciliation tool, Equipment Finance schedules, Correspondence Registers etc.
Where are you located?
We only have our team in Adelaide; We outsource our marketing to Little Village Creative in Melbourne.
