Quick answer: The CleanBooks AI partner programme is how accountancy and bookkeeping firms deploy the platform across their clients to absorb MTD bookkeeping, add a recurring-revenue line, speed onboarding and improve retention. At 12 pounds per client per month after a free six-month pilot, it is structured as a recurring-revenue line, not just a cost, because it lowers your delivery cost per client. It works alongside Xero or QuickBooks, so adoption is additive. Every partnership starts with a free six-month pilot.
CleanBooks AI is built to be deployed by firms across their client base, not just used by individuals. The partner programme is how an accountancy or bookkeeping practice puts the platform to work: absorbing the MTD bookkeeping load, adding a recurring-revenue line, and keeping clients longer. Here is what it involves and how to start.
What the partner programme gives your firm
The programme is designed around the things that matter to a practice: less manual bookkeeping, faster client onboarding, less record-chasing, better client retention, and a new recurring-revenue line. Rather than selling your firm compliance, it sells you capacity and revenue, the ability to handle more clients and earn more per client without adding headcount.
The economics: a revenue line, not just a cost
At £12 per client per month, CleanBooks AI is structured to be a recurring-revenue line for the firm, not merely a tool cost. Because it absorbs the bookkeeping, your delivery cost per client falls, so the fee you charge clients for MTD work converts to healthier margin. The programme is built to make MTD profitable, not just survivable.

It works alongside your existing tools
The platform sits alongside Xero or QuickBooks rather than replacing them, so adopting it does not mean re-platforming your practice. It absorbs the bookkeeping volume MTD adds and leaves your ledger and workflows in place. Adoption is additive and low-disruption.
Built-in retention and advisory value
Partner firms can offer clients automated monthly performance summaries and real-time clarity on profit, cash and tax, the kind of proactive communication that keeps clients for years. The programme productises the retention and advisory habits that the best firms use, so they come as standard rather than as extra work.
Start with a free six-month pilot
Every partnership starts with a free six-month pilot, no spend to weigh up. Your firm runs a real client cohort through the platform, measures the time saved and the clarity gained, and only moves to paid afterwards at £12 per client per month. It is the lowest-risk way to prove the model on your own practice before committing.
