How much does AI automation actually cost for accounting and professional service firms?

Our pricing is straightforward: £350/month for solo practitioners (Live AI Chat), £650/month for growing practices with 2-12 staff (Pro tier with Voice AI Receptionist), and £950/month for established firms needing complete automation. This includes setup, UK-based support, and usage within fair limits. Research shows UK professional services firms lose significant revenue through missed calls and poor communication. Implementation typically takes 5-7 business days for Starter tier, 10-14 days for Pro, and 14-21 days for Premium. Most practices see return on investment within their first quarter.

Is my client data safe with AI automation tools?

Yes. We operate under UK GDPR compliance with data stored on UK servers. Every client interaction is logged with audit trails showing access history, which satisfies both ICO requirements and professional indemnity standards. Our Voice AI and Live Chat systems capture enquiry details and route them to your CRM. Your client financial records remain in your existing accounting software such as Xero or QuickBooks. We use industry-standard encryption for all data transmission and storage. Unlike generic AI tools that may train models on your data, our system is segregated. Your practice conversations remain private and are never used for external model training.

How accurate is Voice AI compared to a human receptionist?

Our Voice AI receptionist handles the majority of incoming calls successfully, including identifying returning clients, providing pricing information, booking appointments, and capturing lead details. When it encounters situations requiring human judgment, it transfers to your team with full context already captured. The key advantages: AI never mishears contact details, never forgets to log a call, never takes sick leave during busy periods, and answers within 3 rings regardless of time or day. UK receptionist salaries range from £25,000-£30,000 annually. Our Pro tier costs £650/month (£7,800/year), representing substantial savings while providing 24/7 coverage.

Will AI automation replace my staff or reduce billable work?

No. It removes the work nobody wants to do: answering the same basic questions repeatedly, chasing clients for documents, manually scheduling appointments, sending payment reminders, and following up on leads. UK accounting faces significant talent shortages. AI fills capacity gaps rather than replacing people. Your team can focus on advisory work which commands higher fees, client relationships, and complex problem-solving that requires professional judgment. The profession is shifting from transactional compliance work to advisory services. AI handles routine communication and admin while your qualified staff handle strategy, planning, and relationship management.

How long does implementation take and will it disrupt my practice?

Starter tier (Live AI Chat): 5-7 business days with no disruption to current operations. Pro tier (Voice AI Receptionist): 10-14 business days including consultation, FAQ gathering, Voice AI training, testing phase, and live deployment with monitoring. Premium tier: 14-21 days due to additional automation setup. We don't recommend implementing during your busiest periods. Most practices choose May-June or September-October when workload is manageable. The system runs in parallel initially. Once you're confident with performance (typically 1-2 weeks), you transition primary call handling to AI. Implementation is phased to minimise disruption.

Does AI automation help with Making Tax Digital (MTD) compliance?

Yes, through improved client communication. MTD for Income Tax (rolling out from April 2026) increases client contact frequency from annual to quarterly submissions. Our SMS and email automation handles this through automated quarterly reminders before MTD deadlines, document request sequences, follow-up sequences for missing information, and client portal access for self-service document upload. The Voice AI answers routine MTD questions: deadline dates, required documents, submission status. We're not MTD submission software (you'll use Xero or QuickBooks for that). We handle the communication layer, ensuring clients provide information on time so you're not scrambling at deadlines.

What's included in the £650/month Pro tier and why is it most popular?

Pro is designed for growing practices (2-12 staff) and includes: AI Voice Receptionist (24/7) that answers every call, books appointments, provides pricing, identifies returning clients, and transfers complex enquiries; Live AI Chat website widget; Email and SMS Automation for follow-ups, onboarding, and document requests; Smart Booking System with calendar integration; and CRM and Pipeline Management for centralised lead tracking. This tier is most popular because it addresses the primary revenue loss point: missed calls and poor follow-up. Research shows 47% of UK SME calls go unanswered. Capturing even a fraction of these calls justifies the investment many times over.

Can I test the AI before committing to a contract?

Yes. Call our business line now: 0204 572 6433. You'll speak with our Voice AI receptionist, the same system we build for client practices. We offer 14-day trials on Starter and Pro tiers. Starter Trial: We'll add Live Chat to your website for 14 days so you can see lead capture in real time. Pro Trial: Your Voice AI runs alongside your existing phone system for 14 days with full call recordings and transcripts for review. During trial, you have full access to the analytics dashboard showing every interaction, response time, and outcome. Most practices make their decision within the first week once they see the system in action with real enquiries.

How does this work if my practice uses Xero or QuickBooks?

We integrate with leading accounting software platforms including Xero and QuickBooks. The AI system connects to your existing tools rather than replacing them. Typical integrations include lead information flowing into your CRM, appointment bookings syncing with your calendar, communication history logging for client records, and document request workflows. The specific integration setup depends on your current tech stack and workflows. During onboarding, we assess your systems and configure connections accordingly. The goal is always to work with your existing processes, not force you to change systems that already work for your practice.

What makes Staxx different from other AI automation agencies?

UK Professional Services Focus: We specialise in UK professional services including accountants, solicitors, mortgage brokers, and financial advisors. We understand UK compliance requirements, industry-specific challenges, and the regulatory environment. Voice AI Capability: Most AI automation focuses on chatbots and email. Few offer Voice AI (phone answering), which is where professional services lose the most revenue. 47% of calls to UK SMEs go unanswered. Integrated Solution: Rather than selling individual point solutions, we provide an integrated system: Voice AI, Live Chat, Booking, CRM, and Email/SMS automation in one platform. One dashboard, one support team, one monthly bill. London-Based Team: We're based in London with UK phone numbers and provide support during UK business hours. We focus on measurable outcomes: calls answered, leads captured, appointments booked, clients onboarded.
