Drop any spreadsheet.
Your MTD return, done.
Every other MTD tool makes you change how your practice works. Abridged doesn't. Our AI reads your clients' spreadsheets — however messy — and maps them to HMRC fields in seconds. All your clients, one dashboard, done.
No data re-entry. No onboarding your clients onto new software. Just the only bridging software with AI that understands any spreadsheet.
Free during HMRC's penalty-free period. No card required.
Found 8 potential mappings in your spreadsheet.
The only MTD software that reads your spreadsheet for you.
Every other bridging tool asks you to re-enter your data, reformat your spreadsheet, or switch to their templates. That defeats the entire point of "bridging." We built something different.
Upload. Done.
Drop any spreadsheet — messy columns, weird headers, any format. Smart Map uses AI to scan your layout and map every field to the right HMRC category. No reformatting. No re-typing. Review the suggestions, hit submit, and your quarterly update is filed. Next quarter? One click — your mapping is saved.
Re-enter everything.
Download their template. Copy-paste your figures into their format. Double-check every field. Repeat every quarter. Some don't even support spreadsheets at all — they expect you to type totals into a web form. It's 2026 and they're still asking you to do the hard work.
Smart Map is why MTD doesn't have to mean more work. It's the only AI in MTD bridging software — and it makes quarterly filing feel almost invisible.
Smart Map: the AI that no other MTD tool has.
Upload any spreadsheet. Smart Map scans your columns, understands your layout, and maps everything to HMRC fields — automatically. No other bridging software does this.

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self Assessment. From April 2026, sole traders and landlords earning over £50,000 must keep digital records and submit quarterly updates to HMRC. The threshold drops to £30,000 from April 2027.
No. That's the whole point. Upload whatever you've got — even if it's messy. Smart Map uses AI to read your spreadsheet and figure out what goes where. You review the mapping, make any tweaks, and submit.
Smart Map analyses the structure of your spreadsheet — column headers, layout, patterns — to match them to HMRC fields. It works even with inconsistent headers or unusual layouts.
Your actual financial figures are never sent to any AI model. Smart Map reads the labels, not the numbers. You always review and approve before anything is submitted.
Your choice. You can store it securely on AWS for your records, or have it deleted immediately after submission. Either way, we keep only the summary data that was sent to HMRC — nothing more.
Year-end filing support is in active development and will be available soon. You won't need a separate platform — quarterly and annual submissions will all be handled in Abridged.
HMRC won't charge penalties for late MTD ITSA submissions until April 2027. This gives everyone time to get set up. Abridged is free during this entire period — get comfortable without paying a penny.
Not at all. Abridged works for anyone who needs to file under MTD ITSA — sole traders, landlords, and accountants managing clients. The multi-client dashboard is particularly useful for practices, but if you're filing for yourself it's just as simple.
The core MTD bridging will remain affordable. We'll introduce optional premium features like AI-powered receipt processing. Pricing will be shared well in advance — no surprises.
All data is encrypted at rest and in transit on AWS. We enforce two-factor authentication on all accounts and maintain a complete audit trail. You control whether spreadsheets are stored or deleted. We never share data with third parties — including AI providers.
Your spreadsheet. HMRC sorted. Minutes, not hours.
