AI automation for tax and accounting workflows
Focused automations for document intake, data extraction, classification, and re-keying in tax and accounting firms, with staff confirming every value.
A large share of a firm's season is spent moving data from documents into systems. Staff read statements, classify transactions, re-key totals into spreadsheets, and check that every expected form arrived. It is careful work, but much of it follows patterns a well-designed automation can handle, provided a person confirms the result.
We build focused automations around those patterns. Typical examples are extracting values from common forms for staff confirmation, classifying incoming documents against an organizer checklist, flagging missing items, and preparing standardized spreadsheets from client exports.
Things to keep in mind
- Treat extracted values as suggestions until a person confirms them.
- Keep client data inside systems covered by your security plan and disclosure obligations.
- Start before the busy season, so the automation is proven when volume arrives.
How it works
Choose one workflow
Pick a high-volume, repeatable task, such as classifying incoming documents or extracting values from a standard form.
Define correct
Real examples become the test set, with the fields, rules, and exceptions spelled out.
Build with confirmation
The automation proposes values or classifications, and staff confirm or correct them.
Measure and expand
Accuracy and time saved are measured before the next workflow is added.
Frequently asked questions
Can AI fill in tax returns for us?
We do not automate professional judgment or filing. Automations prepare and classify data for staff to review.
What does a first automation cost?
Focused automation starts at $3,000, with connected workflows typically $8,000 to $25,000.
