Chivvy builds and runs business software. The trade has two halves: fixed-price bespoke builds for established businesses, and self-serve products — built for our own companies first, then productised once they have proven themselves in daily use.
Four products are live today. The Acquisition Engine finds, scores and manages the purchase of accountancy firms — every UK practice in one universe. Practice Portal is a white-label client portal for accountancy firms, and Growth Engine is its client-winning half: website, CRM and proposals accepted online — with a designed-and-hosted Website product sold on its own. All are self-serve with free trials, used every working day, and built with AI as the primary means of production — which is the point: one founder, production software in days, almost no payroll.
Above those sits the Accountin Operating System: Accountin and Accountin Plus with AI workers that capture bills and receipts, and prepare bank reconciliations, VAT returns, year-end papers and client chasing for the practice's own team to approve, coming soon. It is the top rung of the same ladder: free tools bring firms in, self-serve products convert them, and AOS is where the software does the preparation.
What exists
Eight platforms built, seven of them in daily use, forty-two live properties, four self-serve products with sign-up, trials and plan gating — and the Accountin Operating System, Accountin with AI workers, coming soon. Everything on this site is real.
The round
Chivvy Ltd is raising £250,000 under SEIS — advance assurance has been applied for with HMRC. Funds go to product, distribution and infrastructure — not to buying assets in.
How it's built
AI-leveraged development: one founder building with AI as the primary means of production, contract capacity only if needed. The cost base stays small on purpose.
The company
Chivvy Ltd, company no. 17040454, incorporated February 2026. Founder and sole director: Andrew Jackson, who also owns and runs the accountancy practice the products were proven in.
