Intelligent AI-Backed Accounting for Modern Businesses

Acumen London Ltd is redefining how businesses manage their finances by integrating AI into everyday accounting workflows through its proprietary platform, Countora. Our mission is to simplify financial management for businesses of all sizes-whether they’re independent freelancers or fast-growing SMEs-by replacing manual bookkeeping and reporting with intelligent automation.

Countora adapts to each client’s financial structure, learning from transactions, detecting anomalies, and generating predictive insights. The platform doesn’t just automate-it understands context. By leveraging AI, it delivers personalized, accurate, and compliant financial reports in real-time, making critical information accessible when and where it’s needed most.

Beyond automation, Countora empowers clients to make smarter decisions. With AI-generated forecasts, natural language reporting, and fraud detection, users gain more than efficiency-they gain clarity. This leads to better budgeting, reduced financial risk, and scalable compliance processes that support long-term growth.
At Acumen London Ltd, we believe that financial tools should do more than just keep the books. Countora helps clients unlock strategic value from their data, positioning finance not as a back-office function-but as a forward-looking driver of business innovation.

About Md Wasiul Islam

Md Wasiul Islam’s journey into the world of accounting and business advisory reflects a long-standing commitment to precision, innovation, and integrity. With a deep-rooted understanding of financial systems and compliance frameworks, he has continuously worked to simplify the complexities of modern accounting for businesses at every stage of growth.

His academic background and professional qualifications as a certified chartered accountant have equipped him with the expertise to bridge traditional accounting with emerging technologies. Over the years, he has advised a wide range of clients – from solo entrepreneurs to established SMEs – helping them navigate tax laws, financial reporting, and strategic planning with clarity and confidence.

Wasiul’s passion for progress led him to develop Countora, Acumen London Ltd’s proprietary AI-powered accounting software. Recognizing the limitations of manual bookkeeping in a data-rich world, he envisioned a system that could learn from financial behavior, automate workflows, and generate real-time business intelligence.

As the director of Acumen London Ltd, Wasiul continues to lead with a vision grounded in trust, efficiency, and technological advancement. Through Countora, he is not only shaping the future of accounting but also making high-level financial tools accessible to businesses that previously couldn’t afford them.


How And Why Countora (Our Signature AI Software) Was Built?

Countora was born out of a simple but pressing need: most small businesses and growing enterprises were spending too much time buried in spreadsheets, chasing receipts, and reacting to financial issues instead of planning ahead. Md Wasiul Islam, founder of Acumen London Ltd and a seasoned chartered accountant, saw this first-hand through years of client work across industries.

While traditional accounting tools focused on compliance and record-keeping, they often left business owners without real insight or support. Wasiul envisioned something different – a system that not only automated tasks, but also understood the business, predicted trends, and made accounting feel less like a burden and more like a strategic advantage.

This vision led to the creation of Countora – a platform that combines artificial intelligence with financial best practices. From smart categorization and AI-driven receipt scanning to predictive cash flow forecasting and natural language queries, Countora is designed to make modern accounting accessible, intelligent, and proactive.

Built to serve everyone from freelancers to SMEs, Countora closes the gap between data and decision-making. It empowers business owners to stay compliant, reduce risk, and plan with confidence – without needing to be financial experts themselves.

Today, Countora stands as the core innovation behind Acumen London Ltd’s mission: to simplify finance, elevate decision-making, and help businesses grow with clarity and control.
