Self Assessment, CIS, Invoices
Only for iPhone
Free · In-App Purchases
iPhone
Graft is the job, invoicing and tax app built for UK sole traders. Log a job on site, send a proper quote, raise an invoice, get paid, and file your Making Tax Digital quarterly updates straight to HMRC, all from your phone, no laptop needed.
Jobs and tax, one app, £9.99 a month.
WHY GRAFT
Most apps make you choose: a job app with no tax features, or a tax app with no job features. Tax-only tools won't touch your quotes and invoices. Job apps built for teams cost £30 to £40 a month and want you to manage a crew you don't have.
Graft does both, built for one person working alone (or with a mate). No office, no team, no spreadsheet.
MTD TAX FILING (LIVE)
HMRC now wants tax reported four times a year, not once. Graft is recognised by HMRC for Making Tax Digital for Income Tax and files your quarterly updates directly:
- Your income and expenses pulled into one quarterly tax dashboard
- Your profit and estimated tax in plain English
- Quarterly updates submitted to HMRC straight from the app
- CIS deductions tracked properly

BUILT FOR TRADES, NOT OFFICES
Bricklayers, plumbers, electricians, roofers, plasterers, carpenters, painters, landscapers. Sam built Graft after his bricklayer dad got the HMRC letter and had no idea what to do with it. Everything in this app is built to be used one-handed, on site, with muddy hands.
PRICING
Everything free until 15 September 2026 for early users, full access.
Then £9.99/month or £79.99/year (works out cheaper).
Cancel any time in your App Store settings.
Your jobs. Your tax. Done.

A proper start. Instead of a slideshow, Graft now walks you through adding a real client and pricing a real job on the real screens, then shows you what happens when the money lands. Everything you enter is yours to keep.
Reminders. Choose a daily or weekly nudge to log your work, at a time that suits you. Graft skips the daily one on days you have already logged something, so it never nags you about a job you have just done.
Share a job with your customer. Send a private page with the photos, the estimate and any invoices, and see for yourself when they have opened it.
Keep for tax. Your home screen now shows what to put by for HMRC, so their share is not a nasty surprise at quarter end.
Quicker sign-up, and if you work under CIS, a deduction you record from a contractor's statement now replaces the estimate rather than adding to it.
