Open Accountancy Practice Design Partners

Help build the AI-native accounting firm.

We are selecting a small cohort of accounting firms in the UK and US to work directly with the Open Accountancy Practice team.

We start with the work. Where is your team spending time? Where are engagements getting stuck? Which processes are repetitive but difficult to automate with traditional software? Which work could AI perform if you could trust the output?

Our team works with yours to answer those questions and build against them.

  • identify high-value workflows
  • work directly with our product and engineering team
  • test new AI agents
  • help create representative evaluation cases
  • pilot promising workflows
  • measure the impact
  • influence what we build next
  • receive early access to new capabilities

Relaxed first conversation. No commitment. Tell us about your firm and where the work gets stuck.

The process

From conversation to working workflow.

01

Understand

We learn how the work is performed today and where your team spends its time.

02

Select

Together we identify one or two workflows where AI could create meaningful capacity.

03

Build

We give the agent the context, tools and controls needed to perform more of the work.

04

Evaluate

We use relevant Open Accountancy evaluations and workflow acceptance checks before considering a human-reviewed Open Accountancy Practice pilot.

05

Pilot

The workflow is introduced with appropriate human review and approval controls.

06

Measure

We measure quality, turnaround, human effort and capacity.

07

Expand

When the evidence supports it, we move into the next workflow.

Let's talk

A better firm is built deliberately.

If you are curious about what one well-designed workflow could change, we would like to hear from you.
