Free deadline watchdog for your dormant company
We watch your Companies House deadlines and email you before anything is due — and the moment anything goes wrong. Completely free, for one company.
What the watchdog watches
Five things from the Companies House register, checked against your company every day — plus an assistant that knows the rules.
Annual accounts deadline
We read your accounting dates from Companies House and work out when your accounts are due — including your first-year deadline.
Confirmation statement deadline
Your confirmation statement is due every year even when nothing has changed. We track the date so it never slips past you.
Company status
If Companies House moves to strike your company off — or dissolves or restores it — we spot it in the daily sync and email you straight away.
Register changes you didn't make
Dormant companies are prime hijacking targets. If someone files a change to your officers, registered address, ownership or name, we email you the next morning so you can act if it wasn't you.
Director ID verification deadline
Every existing director must verify their identity with Companies House by your first confirmation statement date after November 2025. We track the date and remind you before it bites.
Compliance assistant (general questions)
AI assistant for general dormant-company questions. Ask about obligations, deadlines, dormancy rules, and what to do if you've missed a filing — no company data needed.
Synced with Companies House daily — if your dates change or a filing lands, the watchdog notices automatically.
The exact email schedule
Reminders at 90, 30, 14, 7, 3, and 1 day before each deadline. If a deadline passes, overdue alerts at 1, 7, 30, and 90 daysafter. No vague “we’ll keep you posted” — this is the schedule.
How it works
Set up in a couple of minutes, then forget about it.

What the watchdog doesn’t do
The watchdog never files anything — it watches Companies House deadlines and emails you. When you want to file through DormantFile, it’s self-service and plans start at £19/yr. See pricing →
The compliance assistant on the free plan answers general dormant-company questions. Upgrade to a paid plan and it’s grounded in your real company data — it knows your filing history and can point you to the right step. Try the assistant →
