Making a start on a list of software from your suggestions, will be adding many more to this soon. Where data is missing in a cell it's because it hasn't been checked yet.
The government's own site says:
There are other software products in development for the 2025 to 2026 and 2026 to 2027 tax years.
So expect this to grow.
