Uku finds the 15–30% of revenue your Xero invoice can't see.
I'd been looking for a practice management solution for my accounting firm for years. Uku was the answer to our problems.

Xero holds the books. Uku runs the practice. Here's exactly what moves between them — and which way. No black boxes.
Your team's tracked time and contracts become invoices in Uku. Review, approve, and they land inside Xero — header, line items, tax, due date, the lot.
Every Xero contact lands in Uku, ready for work. One click, no spreadsheet exports.
Your Xero items become Uku billing templates so contracts use your real catalogue, not a copy.
Configure VAT/GST once in Xero. Uku stays in sync — no double maintenance.
When Xero marks an invoice paid, Uku closes the loop on the same client.
Read-only. You still collect payments in Xero.
Syncs on every invoice export · Re-sync your client list any time.
Sign in to Xero from Uku. Your client list is in Uku in under a minute.
Pick the services, set the rates. Uku starts collecting time for you.
Review, hit send. It lands in Xero — line items, tax, due date.
One click pulls every contact from Xero. Name, email, billing address, tax number — in Uku, ready for work.
Client moved? Address changed? Re-sync any time. Your books and your practice stay in lockstep — without anyone chasing it.
Build a contract once. Uku pulls in your team's tracked time, fixed fees, and volume entries — and drafts every invoice for you. The work that was lost in spreadsheets gets billed.
Mix time, fixed, volume, and item-based pricing in the same contract. Set minimum time and rounding rules. Your Xero tax types are already loaded — no double setup.
Review the draft, hit send. Uku pushes the invoice into Xero — header, line items, tax, due date, reference. All of it.
Xero marks it paid? Uku closes the loop on the same client. No double entry. No reconciliation. No spreadsheets in the middle.
Xero knows which invoices are paid. Uku knows the rest. So Uku sends the reminders — politely, on a schedule you set.
Set up two reminders or five. Different templates for 2, 7, and 14 days overdue. Your team stops chasing money and goes back to actual work.
On schedule
Set your own schedule, write your own emails, change the tone any time. Uku runs it. Your team doesn't touch it.

I'd been looking for a practice management solution for my accounting firm for years. Uku was the answer to our problems.
Every question we hear about the Xero integration — and the answer is always the same.
Any of them. Starter, Standard, Premium — Uku works with all three. For 15+ person firms, Standard or Premium is usually the better fit on the Xero side anyway.
One-way: Xero → Uku. Contacts, addresses and tax numbers flow from Xero into Uku. We deliberately don't push client edits back — your books stay the single source of truth.
From Xero → Uku: contacts, items, tax rates, payment status. From Uku → Xero: invoices, line items, tax types, due dates, references. The "What syncs" section above shows the full picture.
Connecting Xero and importing your contact list takes under 10 minutes. Mapping your services to Uku contracts takes 30–60 minutes depending on how many you have. Our onboarding team will sit on a call with you and do most of it.
No. Nothing leaves Uku until you hit send. There's no background sync running in the dark. You stay in control of every invoice that lands in Xero.
Uku reads the status back and updates the matching client and contract. You see paid, unpaid, or overdue without leaving Uku. You still collect payments inside Xero (or whichever processor you use with it).
