R&D Tax

R&D tax claims that build themselves

Stop chasing engineers for timesheets and technical write-ups. Flowstate builds your R&D claim continuously from delivery data, with AI-generated justifications that meet HMRC and IRS standards.

Engineers resist timesheets -- and you're leaving money on the table

R&D tax credits can return 10-20% of qualifying engineering spend. But building the claim is painful. Engineers hate timesheets. Technical justifications are written months after the work. And the consultant's fee keeps growing.

The worst part? You know you're under-claiming because nobody has time to document every qualifying project properly.

From delivery data to R&D claim -- automatically

Flowstate analyses your project data and generates qualifying evidence in real time.
