Ovaro.io VS ShellNewHandler

Ovaro.io's answer

• World‑first AI voice‑to‑invoice creation: Ovaro lets you generate a complete, professional invoice in under 30 seconds just by speaking (e.g., “Invoice Sarah, logo design, £400”). It also supports prompt‑based and manual entry, but voice is its core differentiator.

• Tap‑to‑pay on your phone, no card reader needed: Unlike traditional invoicing tools that only send payment links, Ovaro lets you accept contactless payments directly on your smartphone. This is a game‑changer for on‑site work (tradespeople, cleaners, personal trainers).

• MTD‑ready from day one: Ovaro is fully compliant with HMRC’s Making Tax Digital (MTD) initiative, which becomes mandatory for sole traders earning over £50,000 from April 2026. It keeps digital records, prepares quarterly summaries, and provides HMRC‑ready reports with one click.

• All‑in‑one simplicity: Ovaro unifies invoicing, payments, unpaid invoice reminders, expense tracking (with receipt scanning), and real‑time reporting into one mobile‑first platform. No more juggling separate apps or spreadsheets.

• Creative freelancers (designers, photographers, writers, videographers) who want to save hours on admin and get paid faster.

• Professional service providers (consultants, coaches, virtual assistants) who need a simple, professional invoicing tool without the complexity of full accounting software.

• Contractors (IT, construction, and interim management) who need project‑based invoicing and MTD compliance.
