Case study
Konto Point
A cloud-based communication portal designed for accountants and their clients. Konto Point makes it easier to exchange sensitive documents, keep conversations organised and move accounting work forward without endless email threads.
Overview
Konto Point is being designed as a central hub where clients and accountants can work together securely in the cloud. Instead of chasing missing paperwork and scattered messages, everything lives in one place: conversations, file uploads and status updates.
The interface aims to feel calm and predictable — with clear sections for messages, document requests, uploads and approvals. The priority is reducing friction for clients, while giving accountants a clearer view of what's outstanding and what's done.
Planned structure & core features
- Secure client login area with a clear dashboard of requests, upcoming deadlines and recently uploaded documents.
- Conversation-style messaging between clients and accountants, grouped by topic or accounting period for better context.
- Document upload and management, with simple status labels (requested, received, approved) and support for common file types.
- Notifications for new messages, outstanding document requests and important reminders.
- A clean, responsive layout that works equally well on desktop and mobile, so clients can respond quickly from anywhere.
As the project moves forward, the plan is to introduce role-based access, stronger filtering and integrations with accounting tools — turning Konto Point into a flexible platform that fits into an accountant's existing workflow, rather than replacing it.
Technical direction
- Next.js and TypeScript for a robust, scalable frontend foundation.
- Tailwind CSS for a consistent design system, rapid prototyping and accessible UI components.
- API-driven architecture to support secure authentication, messaging and document storage.
- A focus on performance and accessibility to ensure the portal feels responsive even with larger workloads.
Once live, this case study will include metrics around performance, user experience and how the platform improves communication between accountants and their clients.
