Indi and Ryan are joined by Kevin Fitzgerald covering VAT workflow improvements, AI payroll onboarding, the month-end close race, and a blunt conversation about why most accounting professionals still are not using AI at all. FreeAgent has shipped VAT return improvements timed to the April 2026 MTD rollout for sole traders and landlords. Kevin notes that FreeAgent's position within NatWest Group gives it a natural route to compliance ownership of the SMEs it serves. Ryan observes that FreeAgent and Sage are now competing on functionality that Xero and Intuit have largely left behind as they moved upmarket. Dext has added Core Guidance to AI Assist, a pre-configured library of compliance-aligned bookkeeping rules that firms can activate per client without any setup work. Indi argues that setup friction has been the real enemy of AI adoption, and Ryan, despite being the self-declared cynic, concedes it is a strong release. The conversation turns to a harder question: if firms are training the Dext engine through their own decisions, are accountants teaching the software vendor how to do their job? Bright has launched Oscar, an AI onboarding agent that contacts new starters via WhatsApp, collects P45s, bank details and right-to-work documents, and passes everything to BrightPay for review. A process that takes up to seven days is reduced to 1.5 hours. Kevin questions whether that saving justifies packaging as a chargeable service. Ryan challenges the WhatsApp security model before the source article confirms the interaction sits behind a Bright login. Kevin also explains how Employment Hero is building Hero AI, with compliance agents that can read employment contracts and surface risk across the business. MIMO has extended Associate into bank and balance sheet reconciliation. Indi explains the logic: to make its receivables financing work downstream, MIMO needed the upstream data layer to be reliable first. Ryan notes that period close is the story everyone in accounting tech is chasing, and the question is not who gets there first but who builds it well enough to change how accountants work. Kevin leads a direct conversation on the AI skills gap. Fifty-eight per cent of finance departments report skills gaps, 19% of accounting professionals use AI daily, and 70% have never used AI at work. Ryan offers four structural reasons: productivity targets that penalise learning time, the cost and data sensitivity of paid tools, centralised training cultures that resist independent exploration, and a shortage of accounting-specific AI guidance. Also covered: Zoho Books is bringing a summer roadshow to six UK cities covering MTD, corporation tax and AI for practices. Ryan highlights Trove, a bootstrapped Xero credit control app launched in late 2024, claiming a 60% reduction in overdue invoices.

Indi is joined by Billie Mcloughlin and Kevin Fitzgerald for a busy episode covering AI's move into tax preparation, Xero's repositioning as an operating system, and a string of practical product updates across the accounting tech stack. Indi opens with news of Advancetrack's upcoming GBX conference on 12th May at the National Gallery, where the 2026 Accounting Talent Index launches. Early data suggests 70% of firms say workloads are increasing pressure on senior staff, cutting against the narrative that AI is the profession's most urgent problem right now. Kevin adds context with Employment Hero's March Jobs Report, drawn from roughly 120,000 UK employees. Headline employment growth is positive at just over 5.3% month on month, but wage growth at 8.8% remains high and SME hiring confidence is wobbling again as April's employer legislation updates and the Fair Work Agency's growing focus create fresh uncertainty. Billie recalls a live demo she recorded: Perplexity's new Computer tool filling out a US tax return end to end, pulling documents, error-checking and asking clarifying questions. It doesn't file, but it does everything up to that point. US-only for now, but a clear direction of travel. Kevin links it to a bolder claim from Tom Blomfield, ex-CEO of Monzo, who argued income tax collection could be restructured within five years, cutting out advisers and individual returns. The hosts are sceptical, but take the underlying question about accountant value seriously. Mayday gets a positive segment covering a strong Q1: centralised control of contacts, chart of accounts and tracking categories across multiple Xero entities, plus the acquisition of Easy Month End. Indi raises the question of whether a Xero acquisition is on the cards. Xero OS generates the most debate. Billie breaks down Jax shifting from assistant framing to something closer to an AI CFO. Indi's reading is more structural: the move from ecosystem to operating system signals Xero closing the dome around its data, compressing the opportunity for apps sitting on top of it. Kevin covers Oracle's Fusion Finance agentic applications, where agents chase payments and manage collections without waiting for human input, and notes AI is collapsing roadmap timelines from twelve months to weeks. Also covered: Dext Payments moving into payroll payments; Briefcase One adding live bank feeds with automated categorisation and ledger posting; FreeAgent's MTD bulk workflow release; and GoCardless cutting 90 jobs while targeting EBITDA positive in 2026. FreeAgent is the proud sponsor of this episode. FreeAgent is an HMRC-recognised MTD solution for sole traders, landlords and CIS clients.

In this episode of Digi-Tools in Accrual World, Ryan Pearcy is joined by Eriona Bajrakurtaj and Kevin Fitzgerald to break down the most significant developments in accounting tech news and fintech news. The team explores how major platforms are moving beyond simple automation to embed artificial intelligence directly into the core of the accounting workflow. The conversation covers the recent Intuit Get Connected event, where the global platform announced a massive shift toward AI-driven compliance. We examine what the partnership with Anthropic means for the rollout of custom AI agents and how the new business tax beta aims to proactively identify tax savings. The panel also reviews the latest product roadmap from FreeAgent and how they are positioning themselves to compete with larger players through rapid development and MTD readiness. Beyond the software updates, we look at the broader economic landscape affecting the profession. Drawing on the latest data from Xero and Employment Hero, we discuss the 8.8 per cent rise in SME wages, persistent late payment challenges, and why the era of the Frankenstack—disjointed software collections—is rapidly coming to an end in favour of unified systems. We also highlight new innovations in compliance and portfolio management, including the MTD Command Centre from Bots for That, the integration between FYI and AMLCC, and Starling Bank's expansion into integrated tax software.

Happy holidays! It's the post-Thanksgiving pre-Christmas episode of The Dana Gould Hour Podcast. I think we can squeeze one more in before Christmas. That's certainly my intention, which is not to say that this episode is not what you'd call BOFFO. Dr. Kevin Fitzgerald is here. Kevin is known for his TV show Emergency Room Vets on Animal Planet. In addition to being a veterinarian, he is an animal preservationist, a conservationist and before that, he was a rock 'n' roll tour bouncer. There are stranger tales to be told, I'm sure, but I can't say I know of any off the top of my head. Kevin has a memoir out now, telling the details of all the many lives he's lead, called It Started With A Turtle, and he's here today to tell us all about it. Comedian par excellence Greg Proops is here to tell us about his new comedy album, Free State Of California, out now. True Tales From Weirdsville takes a deep dive into a side of The King Of Rock 'n' Roll that you might not know about. Elvis Presley, practitioner of the occult. It's weird, but it's all true, and that makes it just the tale for True Tales From Weirdsville. And now, it is on to our filthy business. https://www.DanaGould.com

Jimmy Schuldt just got done playing the longest hockey season of his career. The 28-year-old former St. Cloud State defenseman from Minnetonka played his last game on June 21. Game 7 of the Calder Cup Finals was the 97th game of the season for Schuldt, who played for the Coachella Valley Firebirds. It was quite a season for the Firebirds, the AHL affiliate of the Seattle Kraken. The Firebirds are located in Thousand Palms, Calif., which is about a 25-minute drive from Palm Springs. It was the first season for the Firebirds, who began the season playing home games in Seattle. Schuldt ended up having the best season of his pro career with 32 points and finishing tied for 13th in the AHL in plus/minus (plus-22) in 71 regular season games. He was recently named one of the AHL West's top defensive defensemen and signed a two-way contract with Seattle on Saturday. But with that long season, Schuldt had to miss some big events for friends and family. His older brother, Joe, got married on the same day as Game 5 of the Calder Cup Finals. Former SCSU teammate Kevin Fitzgerald and former SCSU equipment manager Jeremiah Minkel both also had weddings that Schuldt had to miss due to hockey. Schuldt discusses the ups and downs of the long season on this episode of the Huskies Hockey Insider podcast with The Rink Live's Mick Hatten.

In addition, he has been a Corresponding Member of the Pontifical Academy for Life since 2005.ABSTRACTThe Covid pandemic greatly exacerbated deep flaws in our healthcare institutions and educational programs. To help heal these deep flaws, Creighton University is intentionally and intensively integrating the humanities and ethics into all its health professions programs, both undergraduate and graduate. Though early in this process, evidence is already manifesting the value this integration is having with our students and faculty, and, hence, with those they care for and work with. A brief introduction and summary of this effort will be presented in hopes of generating further discussion of how all of us can create a healthcare education program adequate to meet the enormous financial, social, moral and spiritual challenges healthcare faces today.KEVIN POWELL, MD, PHD The Application of Faith and Reason to Clarify Truth in Medical CareKevin Powell, M.D. Ph.D. FAAP, is a retired pediatrician who specialized in the care of hospitalized children. Prior to medical school he worked as a chemical engineer in industry and academia, earning a Ph.D. in Medical Engineering from a joint program of Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Alongside clinical care, for 18 years he served on or chaired hospital ethics committees and was a clinical ethics consultant. His last academic position was on faculty at Saint Louis University and Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital. He is Lutheran.ABSTRACTMedical knowledge is constantly evolving and occasionally advancing. Most of what I was taught in medical school became obsolete, contradicted, or was shown to have always been flat out wrong by the time I retired. The practice of clinical medicine requires continuous adoption, improvement, refinement, and frequently rejection of new knowledge. That knowledge needs to be adapted to function within evolving moral norms and cultural values. The search for truth is ever-present. The encyclical Fides et Ratio says “Faith and reason are like two wings on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth.”REV. FR. NICANOR PIER GIORGIO AUSTRIACO, O.P.An Ethical Assessment of Puberty Blocking Hormonal Treatments for Gender Dysphoria in ChildrenFr. Nicanor Austriaco, OP is a Professor of Biological Sciences and a Professor of Sacred Theology at the University of Santo Tomas in the Philippines. He completed his Bachelor of Science in Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania, summa cum laude, and then earned his Ph.D. in Biology from M.I.T. where he was a fellow of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI). He earned a Doctorate in Sacred Theology (S.Th.D.) at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland, in 2015. His first book, Biomedicine and Beatitude: An Introduction to Catholic Bioethics, was published by the Catholic University of America Press in 2011. It was recognized as a 2012 Choice outstanding academic title by the Association of College and Research Libraries.ABSTRACTShould puberty blockers be used to treat gender dysphoria (GD) in children? For activists promoting transgender rights, the answer to this question is a clear yes. However, several recent reviews of the medical literature have concluded that there is insufficient evidence to assess the long-term effects of hormone treatment on prepubescent children who experience GD. Therefore, in the absence of a robust risk-benefits analysis, it is unethical to promote this controversial medical intervention. It is not surprising that in Norway, Sweden, and Finland, public health officials are warning that for teens with adolescent-onset dysphoria, the use of these puberty blocking drugs may do more harm than good.
