    No more arranging meetings

    Qualified prospects book straight into the right person's Google or Outlook calendar, with confirmations and reminders sent for you.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is strively a good alternative to FigsFlow for UK accountants?

    Yes, if you want to fully automate client onboarding and cut admin. Enquiry forms screen out the wrong clients before you speak to them, meetings book themselves, and proposals are fully customisable web pages rather than PDFs. Once a client accepts, e-signed engagement letters, AML checks and direct debit set-up through Adfin follow automatically. FigsFlow is a strong choice if you want a single suite that includes practice management.

    What's the main difference between strively and FigsFlow?

    strively automates the work before a client signs. It screens enquiries against your rules, books meetings into the right person's calendar and sends reminders before the call. FigsFlow covers proposals and onboarding as part of a wider practice suite, but we couldn't find automatic enquiry screening or meeting booking on its website.

    Is strively cheaper than FigsFlow?

    No. FigsFlow's onboarding module starts at £24 a month on annual billing, while strively's plans are £110, £135 and £220 a month excluding VAT. strively is priced for firms that also want enquiry screening and meeting booking automated, which take up much of the admin time before a client signs.

    Yes. You add your services, fees, proposal templates and engagement letters in strively yourself. Once they're in, new enquiries move through strively automatically.
