Accounting Firms

Busy season doesn’t scale.
Your firm can.

You can’t hire your way out of this one. The pipeline of new CPAs isn’t refilling, and the work is still due on the fifteenth. AI is the one lever that adds capacity without adding headcount.

Where it pays

Four places AI earns its keep in an accounting firm.

Not a chatbot on your website. The grind your staff works through every January to April.

📥
Document intake
The PBC list, handled
Client documents arrive in every format ever invented. AI classifies, extracts, and ties them out, so your staff starts at review instead of data entry.
Workpapers
First-pass prep with a human signing off
Preparation and tie-outs run automatically. Your reviewer still owns the judgment and the signature, so quality control gets tighter, not looser.
📈
Advisory margin
Move revenue up the value chain
Compliance work is priced to the floor and everyone knows it. The capacity you free up is capacity you sell as advisory, at a multiple of the hourly rate.
🛡
Independence & data
Client data doesn’t leave your control
We map where AI is actually being used inside the firm, check it against independence requirements and the data commitments in your engagement letters, and give the partner group a governance roadmap.
What it costs to work with us

Senior-advisor expertise at a third of the cost.

Our advisors came out of the global consulting firms and the hyperscaler AI teams. Here you work with them directly. No pyramid of juniors billing under a partner’s name, and none of the overhead baked into a large firm’s rate card.

For managing partners and firm administrators
