Claude, set up for your office.

Yes. The Team plan is self-serve and Anthropic's help centre at support.claude.com covers setup, connectors and skills. Most firms ask us in for the part after sign-up: writing skills that give consistent results, connecting email and files safely and training staff, so they are not left to trial and error.

When we checked in October 2026, Anthropic listed Team standard seats at $25 per person per month, or $20 a month on annual billing, with a minimum of two people. Prices are shown before tax, and a VAT-registered business can add its VAT number to the account. Your subscription is paid directly to Anthropic; our fee is separate.

Anthropic says it does not train on Team and Enterprise chats by default. The exception is thumbs up or thumbs down feedback, which an owner can switch off. On personal plans, training is a setting each user controls, which is one reason we move teams onto a company account.

A skill is a saved method Claude follows for one task: when to use it, the steps, the checks and what to hand back. On the Team plan the owner can share a skill with everyone, so the whole office works the same way. Writing and testing the skill is where most of our time goes, because that is where the trial and error is.

It can do a lot of the admin around bookkeeping, such as reading receipts and invoices, drafting chasers and checking a statement export. It is not accounting software and it is not an accountant. Anthropic's own terms say outputs should be checked before they are relied on, so a person checks every figure before it goes into your HMRC-recognised software.

Xero's own connector lets Claude read profit, invoices, bills and contacts. Intuit's QuickBooks connector can also create and update invoices, but we check it supports your UK account before relying on it. There is no official Sage connector at the time of writing, so Sage users work from exports.

All three are capable, and the setup work is much the same. Claude is the one we use most and is strong on long documents, spreadsheets and shared skills. ChatGPT and Claude both have Xero connections; Grok has broad email and file connectors. We help you pick based on the software you already use.

You are, and we will say so plainly. The subscription, the account and your data stay in your name under the provider's own terms. We set up and teach features the provider already offers. AI assistants can and do make mistakes, so every routine we build has a person checking anything that matters before it is sent, paid, filed or entered into your accounts. We don't give accounting, tax or legal advice, and Happy Webs isn't responsible for losses or decisions that come from the assistant's output. Your accountant and your accounting software remain the record for HMRC.

Either. A two hour remote session suits a small office that wants to get going. A half day on site works better when several people need training at once or the paperwork lives on paper. We are based in Tameside and travel UK wide; travel beyond 30 miles is quoted up front.
