What we shipped. What’s next.
Public, dated and honest. SmartBooks is pre-launch — every cohort gets the same release notes as the team.
The changelog is intentionally plain.
SmartBooks is in a pre-launch pilot cycle, so public release notes need to be clear about what is already usable, what is being tested and what is still planned. We separate shipped items from in-progress and planned work so firms can judge the product without reading between the lines.
A shipped item means the capability is live on the marketing site, product surface or pilot stack. In-progress means the team is actively building or validating it. Planned means it belongs on the roadmap but should not be treated as available during procurement or client planning.
- ShippedAvailable in the current site or product cycle.
- In progressBeing built, tested or prepared for pilot release.
- PlannedOn the roadmap, but not a live buying promise.

MTD-compliant accounting software repositioning
SmartBooks repositioned as complete UK accounting software — not bookkeeping intelligence. Smart Inbox remains the differentiator; MTD VAT, MTD ITSA, Self Assessment, Accounts production and Client portal sit alongside it.
