Who it's for / Trades and construction

CIS statements, supplier invoices and tickets, filed while you work.

Merchant invoices, CIS statements from every contractor, van insurance and card renewals all land in your email between jobs. KeyFile finds them, files them under the right job and tax year, and reminds you before a card or registration runs out.

What it finds in your inboxes

Across every Gmail and Outlook account you connect, including attachments inside long reply chains. Each one is named the same clear way: date, type, supplier, detail.

  • CIS payment and deduction statements
  • Merchant and supplier invoices
  • Van insurance and MOT
  • Public liability insurance
  • CSCS and trade cards

What it reminds you about

Dates come from the documents themselves and land in your calendar or Todoist well before they are due.

CIS statements
Contractors issue them monthly. Missing ones mean tax you cannot prove you paid.
CSCS card
Most cards last five years, with a test needed for renewal.
Gas Safe registration
Renews every year.
Van insurance and MOT
Every renewal, found from the documents themselves.
Making Tax Digital
Sole traders over £50,000 now, over £30,000 from April 2027 and over £20,000 from April 2028.
