About Soletrader Tools

Soletradertools.co.uk is an independent software comparison site built specifically for the UK’s self-employed community — sole traders, freelancers, contractors and consultants who need practical tools to run their businesses without the overhead of a full accounts team.

We started this site because most software review sites are written for US audiences, cover tools that aren’t available or relevant in the UK, and rarely mention things that actually matter here — like Making Tax Digital compliance, HMRC integration, or whether pricing is in GBP.

Every guide, comparison and review on this site is written with the UK sole trader in mind. We research each tool independently, look at real user feedback, and give a clear verdict rather than sitting on the fence.

How we make money

Some links on this site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you sign up to a tool through our link — at no extra cost to you. This helps keep the site free and funded. It never influences our recommendations — if a tool isn’t right for you, we’ll say so, even if it pays us more. You can read our full affiliate disclosure here.

Got a question or suggestion?

We’re always looking to cover tools that sole traders actually need. If there’s a piece of software you’d like us to review, get in touch.
