We’re thrilled to announce the launch of SquarePlan Business Plan Software - a new way for UK startups to create professional, investor-ready business plans at a fraction of the cost of traditional options.
Why We Built This
For years, we’ve helped businesses across the UK create compelling business plans through our professional business plan writing service. During that time, we noticed a gap in the market: startup founders who had great ideas but faced barriers when it came to planning.
The existing options weren’t working for everyone. Traditional business plan consultants, while excellent for complex projects, often come with price tags that put them out of reach for bootstrapped startups. Meanwhile, generic planning tools available online tend to be overly complicated, US-focused, or simply not fit for purpose when it comes to UK business requirements.
We built SquarePlan Software to change that.
What Makes SquarePlan Different
Built for UK Businesses
Unlike many business planning tools that are designed for the US market and retrofitted for other countries, SquarePlan was built from the ground up with UK businesses in mind. Our software understands:
- UK tax calculations including VAT, Corporation Tax, and National Insurance
- British business terminology and standards
- UK funding landscape and what investors and lenders expect to see
Simplicity Over Complexity
We’ve stripped away the unnecessary complexity that plagues many business planning tools. Instead of drowning you in spreadsheets and jargon, our question-based approach guides you through the process step by step. You answer questions about your business, and we help you build a professional plan.
Affordable and Flexible
At just £39.99 per month with the freedom to cancel anytime, you can create a complete business plan in a single month or take your time over several months - the choice is yours. Need to pause while you gather information? No problem. Our flexible approach means you’re never locked into something that doesn’t work for you.
Powerful Financial Modelling
Don’t worry if numbers aren’t your strong suit. Our software includes built-in financial projection tools that help you create credible forecasts. Model different scenarios - base case, conservative, optimistic, or recession - and see how your business might perform under various conditions.
Who Is the Software For?
SquarePlan Software is designed specifically for startup businesses. If you’re:
- Launching a new business and need a plan to guide your strategy
- Applying for a Start Up Loan or similar small-scale funding
- Setting up a straightforward service business, consultancy, or e-commerce venture
- Looking to understand your financials before taking the leap
- A first-time founder wanting to learn the planning process
Then our business plan software is built for you.
Our Writing Service Continues
The launch of our software doesn’t mean we’re stepping back from professional business plan writing - quite the opposite. By offering software for straightforward startups, we’ve been able to focus our writing service on where it adds the most value.
Our professional writing service now specialises in:
- Specialist niches - Regulated industries like care homes, financial services, and healthcare that require specific expertise
- Complex business structures - Multi-location rollouts, franchises, manufacturing operations, and technology ventures with intricate product roadmaps
- Growth and acquisition - Established businesses looking to expand, acquire other companies, or secure significant investment
- High-stakes funding applications - Major grant applications, venture capital pitches, and visa requirements where professional presentation is essential
If your business falls into one of these categories, our experienced consultants are ready to help. Get in touch for a quote.
