How it works

From codebase to claim in five steps

1

Connect

Link your GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket repository. We fetch issue and merge request metadata — no source code, ever.

2

Analyse

AI categorises your engineering work by R&D theme, flags research spikes, and maps activity to HMRC criteria.

3

Claim

Review AI-generated narratives, edit in-browser, and export audit-ready documentation your accountant can file.
