In this talk I review recent progress in the computation of processes involving top quarks in the framework of Standard Model Effective Theory including NLO QCD corrections. In particular I will discuss the impact of QCD corrections for various top production channels and the importance of using these results in a global EFT fit in the top sector. Results for Higgs production in processes involving top quark loops will also be discussed.
