Free for founding firms — ends 31 May 2026

The email assistant for UK accountants. See every client waiting on you. Reply in one click.

Approvox sits inside Gmail and surfaces every client thread where the ball is in your court, sorted by how long they’ve waited. One click drafts a reply in your voice — you approve it, then send. No new portal. No tab switching. Works in your inbox.

Your inbox stays in your browser. AI drafts only run when you click.

Gmail — Approvox panel
Approvox Gmail panel — shows clients waiting, sorted by wait time, with one-click draft reply

Approvox panel inside Gmail. Clients waiting → draft reply → you approve → sent.

Gmail tells you nothing about clients waiting. Until they chase you.

You owe them a reply. Gmail buries the thread. The angry follow-up arrives two weeks later.

Reply in one click.

AI drafts a reply in your voice, ready in Gmail’s compose box. You approve and send — or edit first. 5 free drafts/day, unlimited from £79/month.

Every AI draft is logged, timestamped, and carries your signature.

Export the full audit trail to PDF for your PI insurer. PCRT January 2026 aligned.

Immutable audit trail

Every AI draft, every approval, every amendment logged with timestamp and professional identity. No edits, no deletions. Your PI insurer sees exactly what happened.

PDF export for PI insurers

One click to generate a professional PDF audit log with cover page, date range, and complete event table. Designed for ICAEW review and PI insurer compliance packs.

Draft only — you always send

The AI never sends. Every draft opens in Gmail's compose window. You read it, you approve it, you send it. The AI is your drafting assistant, not your correspondent.

You are the professional of record

Approved replies carry your name, your firm, and a timestamp. Approvox is the platform. You are the accountant. Our ToS makes this explicit.

Accounting-specific AI

The AI draft knows HMRC, Self Assessment, VAT, Companies House. It drafts in the voice of a UK accountant, not a generic chatbot. Boomerang doesn't know what a P11D is.

No bulk approve

Every approval is a deliberate, individual action. One click per reply. No mass-approve shortcuts. Because professional oversight means actually reading the draft.

Not Boomerang. Not Streak. Not ChatGPT. The only Gmail assistant built for UK accountants, with accounting-specific AI and a full approval audit trail.

Generic snooze tools don’t know HMRC from a hole in the ground. Approvox is built for practices that answer tax and accounting questions every day.

Simple, transparent pricing

Wait-time visibility is free, always. AI drafts: 5/day free, unlimited on a paid plan.

Frequently asked questions

Does it read all my emails?

No. The extension reads the inbox thread list to identify which threads are waiting on you. It never reads email content unless you click 'Draft reply' on a specific thread. At that point it sends only the relevant thread excerpt to our server to generate a draft. Your inbox stays in your browser.

What if the AI draft is wrong?

That is exactly why Approvox exists. Every AI-drafted reply opens in Gmail's compose window for your approval. You read it, edit it, and send it — or delete it and write your own. The AI never sends anything on your behalf. You are the professional of record.

Does this work with Outlook?

Not yet. v0 supports Gmail (Chrome and Edge). Outlook web add-in is on the roadmap for a later release. If Outlook is essential for you, email us at hello@approvox.co.uk and we will let you know when it ships.

What happens after 5 free drafts per day?

After 5 drafts in a rolling 24-hour window, you see a paywall card in the extension. You can still use the wait-time panel (free, always) — you just cannot generate more AI drafts until you upgrade or the window resets. Unlimited drafts start at £79/month.

Is Approvox GDPR compliant?

Yes. All data is processed in the UK, encrypted at rest and in transit, and subject to a full Data Processing Agreement. Email content is only transmitted when you click 'Draft reply' — never passively. Our privacy policy and DPA are available on request.

What about my PI insurance?

Approvox strengthens your PI position, not weakens it. Every AI draft you approve is timestamped and logged with your professional identity. You can export the complete audit trail as a PDF designed for your PI insurer. Under PCRT January 2026 guidance, this documented oversight is exactly what insurers want to see.
