About PracticeGrid

Automation & AI under one umbrella

PracticeGrid is an umbrella platform that brings automation and AI to accountancy firms, starting with our flagship product, CinchFlow.

Built specifically for accountants and bookkeeping teams, PracticeGrid helps you standardise workflows, keep compliance under control, and reduce the administrative work that slows firms down. Rather than stitching together spreadsheets, email threads and ad-hoc tools, you work from one structured workspace where jobs, documents and deadlines are always clear.
