Built by an Accountant Who Knew AML Needed to Be Easier
Practitioner-founded • Birmingham, UK • Trusted by 100+ practices
In 2015, I started RR Accountants in Birmingham. I loved helping clients with their finances. I hated AML compliance.
Every month, I spent 8-12 hours chasing clients for IDs, manually checking PEP lists, and praying HMRC wouldn't audit me.
In 2018, I got my first AML warning from HMRC. I'd missed a client's PEP status. £5,000 fine. I was furious—not at HMRC, but at myself for not having a better system.
I tried every AML software I could find:
- • Firmcheck: Great brand, but expensive for small practices
- • Xama: Good features, but confusing pricing
- • First AML: Too expensive, too complex
- • CCH iFirm: Locked into CCH ecosystem
None of them worked the way I needed. So I built Certivus.
