About ClearYear

Built with engineering discipline.
Designed for real-world use.

ClearYear is a modern tax filing platform built specifically for self-employed workers in the UK — combining compliance, simplicity, and performance into a single streamlined experience.

Founder · Software Engineer · Data Systems Specialist

Andrean holds a First Class degree in Software Engineering (University of Bolton) and a Distinction in MSc Big Data Analytics (Wrexham University). His work spans backend engineering, automation systems, and data-driven platforms used in production environments across the UK.

ClearYear was built from a direct observation: existing tax solutions are either overly complex, overpriced, or designed for accountants — not for the individuals actually filing. This platform removes that friction by focusing on clarity, correctness, and speed.

Mission
