The UK accounting and ERP market looks nothing like the US. Different dominant players, different regulatory context, and a heavier concentration around a few key platforms.

If you are selling into UK SMBs, Xero and Sage cover most of the market. But mid-market and enterprise deals will surface Sage 200, Access Financials, and NetSuite.
One API covers all 12.
