How does Nella work with Slack?

Nella answers in Slack about your own live figures, so finance questions get resolved in the channel where the team is already working rather than in a separate tool. Slack comes with AccTek Accounting and Advisory, alongside a qualified chartered accountant.

What it reads

What Nella reads from Slack

  • Plain-English answers about your live figures, in channel
  • Your Nella Score and what moved it
  • Upcoming tax and filing dates
  • Anything flagged as worth a second look this month

Slack is a shared space, so consider which channel Nella answers in before inviting it — anyone in that channel sees the figures it returns. Nella answers only for the business linked to the workspace.

In practice

Questions you can ask

  • “What is our cash position this week?”
  • “How did we do on margin last month?”
  • “What is due to HMRC and when?”
  • “Anything unusual in this month’s numbers?”

Nella provides financial information and education, not accounting or tax advice.

The boundary

What Nella cannot do in Slack

The connection is read-only by design, so there is a fixed list of things Nella cannot do in Slack — not as a setting you could change, but because the permission is never requested.

  • Change anything in your accounting software — the connection is read-only
  • Answer for a workspace that is not linked to your connected business
  • Give accounting or tax advice
