What the Fee Benchmark Calculator does

The Fee Benchmark Calculator is built for advisers and accountants. It helps users compare current fees with an indicative benchmark and draft a price-review script, without starting from a blank document or spreadsheet.

The tool is designed as a practical working aid. It gives advisers a faster first draft, checklist or calculation, while keeping the professional judgement where it belongs: with the adviser and their firm.

Why it is useful

Advisers often lose time on repeat admin: asking for the same documents, writing similar client emails, checking the same filing prompts and rebuilding the same working papers. Small tools reduce that friction.

For firms with limited admin capacity, the difference is not theoretical. A repeatable checklist or client-ready draft can save time on every onboarding, review, complaint, tax planning or compliance file.

Who can use it

The tool is free for registered advisers on Verified Advisers. Registration gives firms access to the wider adviser toolkit from one dashboard.

To try it, sign in or register and open /adviser/tools/fee-benchmark. The output should be reviewed before it is used with any client.

Important compliance note

The tool is not a regulated recommendation, legal opinion, tax opinion, FCA approval, HMRC filing confirmation or professional-body sign-off. It is a professional-use draft for adviser review.

Before using any output with a client, advisers should check client facts, current rules, permissions, firm templates, engagement terms and any relevant FCA, HMRC, Companies House, SRA or professional-body requirements.

About the free adviser tools

Verified Advisers provides these tools free to registered advisers to reduce repeat admin and make common professional workflows faster. The tools produce working drafts, prompts and checklists for adviser review; they are not a substitute for client-specific judgement, firm procedures or regulatory sign-off.
