Get organised for MTD for Income Tax without the overwhelm
MavenHub helps sole traders and landlords check their MTD position, stay organised each quarter, and avoid last-minute stress.
Free • Takes 2 minutes • No card required
MavenHub helps you prepare for MTD. Quarterly updates must still be submitted through HMRC-recognised MTD-compatible software or by your accountant.
MTD is more than just registering with HMRC
You will need to keep digital records, prepare for quarterly updates, and stay aware of new deadlines. You'll also need to organise income, expenses, mileage, and accountant notes throughout the year.
Many people leave this too late, which creates stress and messy records.
Not sure if MTD applies to you?
Rules are based on gross qualifying income, not just profit, leaving many unsure of their status.
Worried about missing a deadline?
Quarterly updates introduce new filing dates throughout the year that are easy to forget.
Unsure what to check each quarter?
You need a repeatable routine to review income, expenses, and bank records before submitting.
Need better records for your accountant?
Scattered notes and missing receipts lead to more questions and rushed accountant calls.
Want to avoid a January tax shock?
Without tracking your tax position during the year, your final bill can be an unexpected surprise.

If MavenHub helps you log an extra 415 business miles per year, that's worth around £228 in mileage claims at the current HMRC approved rate of £0.55/mile — equivalent to the full annual cost of the Pro plan.
Better records and cleaner quarterly summaries can reduce the time your accountant spends chasing information — potentially saving £100–£200 or more in fees each year.
MavenHub guides you through four quarterly checklists per year — helping you avoid last-minute panic, missed expenses and disorganised records before each deadline.
The Tax Pot Planner estimates your Income Tax and Class 4 NI liability throughout the year so you know what to set aside — and avoid an unexpected bill in January.
Deadline reminders, a Deadline Dashboard and Quarterly Checklist mean you are not scrambling to remember what to do each quarter. Organised once, useful all year.
Arrive at every accountant meeting with a clear Quarterly Accountant Pack. Better information means less back-and-forth and more productive meetings.
For £19/month (or £190/year), Pro gives you a live MTD preparation system.

MavenHub helps you prepare.
Your accounting software submits.
MavenHub helps you prepare for Making Tax Digital for Income Tax by organising your checks, notes and supporting information. It does not submit quarterly updates directly to HMRC and does not replace HMRC-recognised MTD-compatible software or your accountant. Any quarterly update must be submitted through compatible software or by your accountant.
