The Log of the Work Becomes the Claim.
Logbook exists because R&D claims are written twice: once as code, and once more for an adviser who keeps a share.
Every software team already writes down what was hard. It’s in the ticket that says "spike: can we do this without a central lock?", and the commit that says "revert, approach B fails under load". That is the story HMRC and RVO want to read.
Advisers rebuild that story every year from interviews and spreadsheets, and take 10 to 15% of the relief for it. We think the claim should come from the record you kept at the time, for a fee that doesn’t grow with your success.
We’re setting up our first 10 firms by hand, in the UK and the Netherlands. If that’s you, you’ll be talking to Tim.
Tim Thiele
Founder
Tim leads Logbook and sets up each of the first 10 firms himself, from mapping the projects to handing over the evidence file.
Read-only, always
We read ticket text and commit messages. We never need your source code.
A flat fee
The same price for a small claim or a large one. Your relief stays yours.
Evidence first
Every line of the write-up points back to work you logged at the time.
Founding customers pay half for the first 12 months. Nothing is charged until it’s live for you. Cancel any time.
