For CIS subcontractors

Stay legal and get every refund you're owed.

Graft tracks your miles, scans your receipts, builds CIS-correct invoices and files Making Tax Digital — so the tax already taken off your payments comes back to you. Built for the van, not the desk.

Making Tax Digital ready for April 2026 CIS deductions done right — 20%, 30% & gross Auto-mileage at 55p / 25p Free portal for your accountant
Everything on one app

The tax admin a subbie actually needs — and nothing they don't.

Graft was built around the Construction Industry Scheme, not bolted on afterwards. Every number is worked out the way HMRC expects.

Snap a receipt

Photograph materials, fuel and tools. Graft reads the total and files it against the right expense category — even with no signal on site.

Automatic mileage

Drive to a job and Graft logs the trip in the background. Swipe business or personal — that's your 55p-a-mile relief captured, no logbook.

CIS-correct invoices

Labour, materials, the 20% or 30% deduction and reverse-charge VAT — worked out for you, with your logo, UTR and National Insurance number on every invoice. Email it straight to the contractor.

File with HMRC

Quarterly Making Tax Digital updates and your year-end declaration, sent from the app — with the exact figures you've been building all year.

Refund, not a tax bill

Because CIS already takes tax off your payments, most subbies are owed money back. Graft shows what's likely coming, all year — not a nasty surprise in January.

Your accountant, connected

Link your accountant and they see your records in real time, message you about a receipt, and pull a complete set of working papers. No more shoebox in January.

How it works

Three habits. Graft does the tax.

Log it as you go

Snap receipts, let mileage track itself, and record what each contractor paid you. Thirty seconds on the way to the van.

Watch your position

The Home screen always shows what you're likely owed back — updated every time you log something. No spreadsheets, no guessing.

File and get paid

Send CIS-correct invoices, file Making Tax Digital, and let your accountant finish the return from the records already in Graft.

For accountants

A whole CIS book, always ready for the deadline.

The Graft portal is free. Invite your subcontractor clients and their records come to you clean — reconciled CIS statements, categorised expenses, a mileage log, and a full accounts pack you can export to Excel.

  • Every client's records live — messiest books surface first, before January.
  • One-click accounts pack: SA103F summary, capital allowances, adjustments, comparatives.
  • Raise a query on a specific receipt; your client replies from their phone.
  • Lock a quarter once it's reviewed — the records freeze, with the client's approval on record.
