Compare Self Assessment Software with TaxCalc and Capium
We are dedicated Self Assessment. Capium and TaxCalc are often bought as suites. FreeAgent is bookkeeping. Use the page that matches the job you are buying.
In short
Self Assessment Software sells prepare-free year-end SA: individuals from £39 per tax year, accountant credits from £179 for 10. Compare us with TaxCalc and Capium when you want published SA pricing without a full practice suite.

Different products win different jobs. Buy the desk that matches what you need this season.
Bookkeeping + CT + payroll + SA in one vendor. Capium-style suites fit that brief — we do not.
TaxCalc when you also need CT, accounts or MTD quarterly products alongside SA.
Invoices and bank feeds. Keep FreeAgent, Xero or QuickBooks — then file SA here if you want year-end depth.

Self Assessment Software vs TaxCalcTaxCalc is a volume tax-production tool for UK firms. We sell pay-per-filing Self Assessment — credits for practices and individual returns from £39 — without accounts production or practice management.
