Updated 25 May 2026
Key use cases for UK accounting practices
Each workflow starts with the same Excel or CSV file your client already sends. No new systems, no API connections, no data engineering.
Monthly management accounts
Upload your client's P&L Excel export from Xero, QuickBooks, or Sage. DataHub Pro generates AI-written commentary on variances, trends, and highlights — plus a branded Word document ready to send.
Client financial analysis
Upload a client's sales or cost data and generate an instant KPI dashboard with Word report for client meetings. Charts, period-over-period comparisons, and AI-written narrative included.
Cash flow analysis
Upload a cash flow forecast spreadsheet and get a Holt-Winters 12-month projection with 80/95% confidence bands, anomaly flags on unusual periods, and an editable PPTX for client review.
Working papers
DataHub Pro generates structured analysis documents in editable Word (.docx) format — documenting the data source, the analysis performed, and the findings. An auditable AI-generated analysis trail.
VAT & payroll data review
Upload transaction exports and run automated anomaly detection on unusual patterns: duplicate entries, outlier values, missing periods. Each flag includes the date, value, and AI explanation.
Year-end & audit preparation
Drop in a trial balance or transaction ledger. Get exception reports, data-quality scoring, and anomaly flags ready for the audit pack — in minutes rather than hours.

- UK-registered company, data stays in UK/EU (GDPR compliant, signed DPA available)
- No SQL, no Python, no data engineering — suitable for accountants, not data scientists
- White-label output — remove DataHub Pro branding for client-facing reports on Pro plan
- Permanent free tier — try it on a real client file before committing to a paid plan
- Audit trail per AI answer — every figure links back to deterministic operations on the source data
For every practice size
Solo practitioners
Automate the analysis portion of monthly bookkeeping reviews. The Pro tier (from $14.99/mo) gives a sole practitioner the analytics output of a much larger firm — drop in a client's QuickBooks export, ship a branded Word report.
Small firms (2–10 staff)
Standardise client report output across the practice. Every team member produces consistent, branded analysis documents from the same workflow. Recurring management accounts collapse from half-days to minutes per client.
Mid-size firms
White-label reporting for premium client tiers. Per-client workspace isolation ensures staff only see the files they're assigned to. Enterprise pricing available for 10+ seats with SSO, dedicated UK/EU regions, and SLA.
Works with your existing accounting software exports
DataHub Pro reads any CSV or Excel file — no API connection required. All major UK accounting platforms support CSV/Excel export:
- Xero — export nominal ledger, P&L, cash flow, or aged debtors as CSV
- QuickBooks — export reports as Excel or CSV directly from the Reports menu
- Sage 50 / Sage 200 — export transaction lists and P&L summaries as CSV or Excel
- FreeAgent — export profit and loss, balance sheet, and transaction reports as CSV
Export your file from whichever system your client uses, upload it to DataHub Pro, and run analysis — the platform reads the file without any connection to your accounting software.
How DataHub Pro fits into an accounting firm's tool stack
DataHub Pro is not bookkeeping software, tax software, or audit software. It is an analytics and reporting layer that sits on top of the spreadsheet exports your existing systems already produce.
What it does
Turns Excel/CSV data into structured analysis documents, KPI dashboards, and forecasts. Works from the files clients already send. Output is editable DOCX/PPTX, not a locked dashboard.
It complements Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, IRIS, CCH, and the audit-pack tools you already use. Many practices use it alongside Microsoft Copilot: Copilot handles in-cell Excel productivity; DataHub Pro handles the client-facing deliverable produced from that spreadsheet.
Frequently asked questions
Is DataHub Pro compliant with UK data protection requirements?
Yes. DataHub Pro is registered in England & Wales. All data is processed and stored in UK/EU infrastructure. A full Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available for firms requiring it under UK GDPR — contact us via the contact form to request one.
Can DataHub Pro produce working papers?
DataHub Pro generates structured analysis documents in editable Word (.docx) format that function as working papers: they document the data source, the analysis performed, and the findings. These are not ICAEW/ACCA-prescribed formats but provide an auditable AI-generated analysis trail with full reproducibility from the source file.
Does it work with Xero or QuickBooks exports?
DataHub Pro reads any CSV or Excel file. Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, and FreeAgent all support CSV/Excel exports. Export your nominal ledger, P&L, or transaction list and upload it directly — no API connection required. The platform auto-detects your columns.
Can I white-label the reports for clients?
Yes. Pro plan users can remove DataHub Pro branding from exported Word and PowerPoint reports, allowing delivery under your firm's own branding. Per-client workspace branding (logo, colours, typography) is also available.
Is there a free trial for accounting firms?
Yes. DataHub Pro has a permanent free tier that lets you upload files and run analyses without a credit card. Paid plans from $14.99/mo unlock unlimited files, AI narrative, and DOCX/PPTX export. Most practices are running DataHub Pro on real client work within a week of evaluation.
What about ICAEW / ACCA / CIMA professional standards?
The audit trail per AI answer means every figure can be reconciled to its source operations — fitting the working-paper requirements. We don't claim the platform itself is "regulator-approved" (no AI tool is), but it has been built to fit professional-standards workflows where reproducibility matters.
How does pricing work for a multi-partner firm?
From $14.99/mo for Pro. Each user gets their own login and audit trail. Volume discount on annual billing for 10+ seats. Enterprise pricing covers SSO, dedicated UK/EU regions, custom contracts, and SLA.
