Our Values

The principles that guide how we build products and support sole traders every day.
  • Simplicity first

    Running a business should not require complex financial software. Sole is designed to simplify invoicing, expenses, cash flow and tax obligations so small businesses can focus on what they do best.
  • Built for Australian business

    Sole is designed specifically for the Australian accounting and tax environment. Different industries operate in different ways, so the platform includes tailored templates, guides and workflows to support how each type of business runs.
  • Focusing on efficiency

    Accounting firms often rely on multiple disconnected systems to manage their practice. Sole Practice Manager brings these tools together into one connected platform, giving firms better visibility across their clients while reducing complexity and administrative overhead.
  • Accessible for growing businesses

    Modern financial tools (including practical use of AI) should be available to every small business, not just large organisations. Sole is built to deliver powerful capabilities while remaining accessible and practical for small businesses and the professionals who support them.

    Message from Our Founder

    Hi, and thank you for being part of the Sole community. My name is Johann and I founded Sole to build financial tools designed specifically for Australian sole traders and small businesses. Too often, business owners are forced to manage their finances using complex systems or disconnected tools that were never designed for how small businesses actually operate.

    Sole was created to change that by providing a platform that is simple, practical and built for the Australian business environment. What began as a mobile app designed to simplify invoicing, expenses and tax management has grown into a broader platform supporting businesses across Australia.

    Today Sole continues to evolve, supporting both business owners and the accountants and bookkeepers who work with them through the development of Sole Practice Manager. Our goal is to bring together the tools, insights and workflows needed to better support the small business ecosystem.

    Thank you for being part of the journey and for trusting Sole to support your business.
