Our notes

MTD Assist from Glasscubes is a quarterly-update tool that accounting firms give to clients who don't use bookkeeping software. Clients keep spreadsheet-simple records and file quarterly; the final declaration stays with the firm.

Pros

  • Free for the accounting firm
  • Simple quarterly filing for clients, with an optional firm review step
  • White-labelling available

Cons

  • Sold through accountants, not directly to individuals
  • Does not handle the final declaration ('stays with your firm')
